Does anyone have the dimensions or the pattern for the LeMans Style nose strip? Or do you just eyeball it?

I prefer the single stage paints, usually in original factory colors. They have the appropriate, oh, character for the cars. Back when I was younger and more enthusiastic I had this idea that I wanted three Spitfires - a street car, a show car and one to race. And I had a paint scheme in mind, using four factory colors - Delft Blue, Wedgewood Blue, Royal Blue ( a really dark navy ) and Jasmine yellow. I did get one car painted in the scheme I had in mind, check out the bottom photo on the page at http://fatchancegarage.com The body is Jasmine, the LeMans style nose strip is Delft, with a thin line of Wedgewood edging. I did have a Mark 1 street car that I got started on, had a rough coat of Delft on it to see if I really liked the color. I did, well, still do. Never did get more than one Spit running at a time, but I did manage to get the air tank to match: http://www.team.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=18 mjb.
