This is Brazilian GP 2008 Ferrari by BBR. The set produced in honour of scuderia's win in the World Constructor's Championship. As you see the model is "naked".
This is completely decorated real car:
And this is aftermarket Ferrari F1 2008 decal set:
Well, if I'll apply decals, I'll get historically correct model. But in the same time model will lost it's authenticity, it will not original any more.
So, there is Hamlet's question - to be, or not to be? To use decals, or left model as is?
Any your opinions and comments are welcome, please.

Thanks to all for comments. I also think wholly decorated model is much better, just wanted to know other opinions.

Yes, it's China made decal, found on e-bay.
BBR itself can't do tobacco decals. If you remember long ago they did it in different scales and even sold them separately. But few years ago Fernando Realy, BBR boss, during our meeting at exhibition in Milano told me they got a letter from Philip Morris concern. It was demand to buy the special license for astronomical price or to stop decal production and destroy all stock. There were no alternative for BBR as to finish with tobacco decals. Such is this pity story...
