Default Officeial Pace Car Decal Location

I have ordered the decals for the ground affects on my pace car. I have looked online and see some cars where they have centered it to the wheels, and some centered to the door. I am asking opinions as to where you think they should be placed. I do not know where GM actually intended for them, but I think I like centered the wheels. So please let me know your opinion, and feel free to be totally honest. AND GO!!!

Definitely centered towards the wheels, maybe try towards the rear wheel.

Centered to the wheels looks better.

Cool

I scanned the Brick yard pace car from the Monte Brochure 2003. This was the only one I found in the Monte Brochures that had a side view. Then I found some other ones so you can look at it and see what it may appear like if it were on your Monte.

Thanks #3, those help a lot. I think I am going to stick with the centered to the wheels like the actual Brickyard car had. I like it to the front to, but just really like the centered look. I will post pics as soon as I get time to get it done. I am going to take the ground affects off and paint them before installing the decals.
