Re: DBR9 in gulf colors

aarrghh so nice. I just love the gulf livery. Verry special colour combination, verry bright and barely any other sponsor on it.

Re: DBR9 in gulf colors

agree about the lola coupe, not too many affordable race car kits being made nowadays

I especially like the all-black MICHELIN logos on the front and back corners of the Gulf DBR9

Re: DBR9 in gulf colors

The DBR9 looks nice, but it means nothing to me if it's not going to compete against Corvette Racing in the ALMS. Apparently the Charouz Lola B08/60 Aston Martin Coupe was rumored to debut at Sebring, but I am not holding my breath

Re: DBR9 in gulf colors

That looks awesome!!! We only need the decals, the perfect kit for this would be the MFH Le Mans 07 version.

Yep, I have the '07 Le Mans version and the hood openings are an exact match. Now, I need to find someone smarter then me to make decals to match. So........ if anyone can, let me know, I may just have to make my 07 into the 08 before Le Mans.

Re: DBR9 in gulf colors

I don't like it at all. On the track at eye level it will be boring, just like the vette year after year. Is their any color on the side? Maybe if they chose flor.orange stripes and wheels and a prettier blue like the Gulf Mclaren?
