Correct - although I am thinking I like the 'handed' version as the wider bit of the decal matches the wider end of the base on both sides...

The BDesigns set arrived today so I will scan them all for comparison.

Btw the Kat we raffled. Had the "wrong " decals on as in handed ......no one noticed ...or cared.
I to think they should have been handed from new , looks more correct.

There was also another decal error (or individuality, if you like) on the Raffle Kat...........

Just to finish this off - here is a comparison of the decals from BDesigns and The Image Works.
Graham Talks is the man at The Image Works and he corrected their design to match the original - plus - he now supplies a set of three decals for the tail piece, two left-hand (as original) and one right-hand (in case you want the '750' at the rear of the panel on both sides).

The BDesigns and Image Works decals are exactly the same size, but there is a slight colour difference. The BDesigns are red and the Image Works have a slight orange tint. See pic.

So I used the BDesigns in the end ones since I had already used their tank decals and I wanted the colours to match.
