I feel dumber after reading this thread, sorry.
But has no one actually looked at the reflections: the part that sticks out for example (the rectangle)
---Its a reflection of the surrounding spectator stands. Razz

And the post that was saying something was removed - sorry, but you're wrong, something was overlayed (ie. the white stripes and puzzle)

Hope this clarifies a thing or two.

Please forgive my last post. I looked again and realised I was mistaken.
But then again, "To err is human" -- I would be lost without the colony Razz
(Am I the only one begining to feel indoctrinated?)

Although the overlay thing was true.

that's where i'm saying, with the sticker theory: if it's a patch on the car model where the texture is different, maybe something that doesn't reflect in the same way (perfectly possible, select the polygons and apply the different texture or whatever), then you could get the same effect. This could then be left as a placeholder for people to put their stickers of choice in the game. What i think sells me on this theory, is the grey square that's there under the light, which can be found in that position on the real car. To me, it shows that whatever's there is meant to be there. The fact that the 'x' is covered over, may just be a co-incidence. I seem to rememer that any time people looked this hard into an image we've been given, it rarely produces any fruit. I don't think the people behind the game would put things in that small and detailed, that might easily be missed (like the LLE thing, too. a good spot, but is it gonna help?)

The LLE looks more like the artist's signature if anything, most artists will try and squeeze a sig in somewhere and on commercial work like this you need to hide it away a bit as this is. worth remembering I suppose, maybe we could look up graphics artists with the initials LLE?

This is the best I can do with the "face" hidden in the pic. I have no idea who it is. J Allard? Don't think so. Peter Moore (supposedly doing the unveil on MTV) is a possibility.

I did my best to un-arc and un-stretch the pic

Wow! Nice find! I didn't even notice that face before, but once you pointed it out it was extremely noticable. Heres my shot at uncurving it and getting as much detail as i could out of it.
