    Is this the correct stencil I would use to restore the faded lettering on my 3.2 Mondial airbox?

    I would assume that this would be more correct than the vinyl "Ferrari" stickers I have also seen used for this purpose.

    Since this will probably be a one time use item for me, is anyone else interested in using it after I am done with it?

    I think it looks correct. My airbox was redone with a stencil in 2008... here's how it looked in 2011. It still looks the same now. Makes a big difference.

    You did a fantastic job Charles. I bought the stencil and tried painting it with a brush and it turned out horrible for me.
    Did you use a spray can because I think this is only way that it won't run or smear.

    Well, I can't take credit as it was done by a local guy. Rattlecan FTW!

    Don't buy a stencil yet, we may be able to re-use the stencil when I get done with it, I'll let you know.
