The best compromise you can really hope for, given the way the car has been texture mapped (though I imagine for efficiency rather than a deliberate effort just to make modding difficult. These games are on consoles as well after all. Cars in DiRT Rally that were meant to have names on the windows had separate left and right textures, those that didn't just mirrored them).
This is a believable alternative, and at least it lets you look at both sides of the car!
