Gonna wrap my car
Hi Guys, I have a friend that works with Vinyl and will wrap my car as a "test" project, trouble is im crap with designs and ideas
I Have a Westfield SE, and its my intention to do a bit of work over the winter and sell her on early next year for something newer and quicker,
currently she's red with black nose and wings
Anyone seen anything out there that looks the nuts, obviously they want to do a design that shows their flair and creativity but i want to balance it
with saleability so making it look like "jaws" or "a Spitfire" is not what i had in mind
Any ideas appreciated

I think the problem with vinyl wrapping is that it doesn't do subtle very well - making your car look like a shark or a spitfire is what it does
best.
I know a guy who had a westy wrapped in a tropical underwater scene. It looks awesome, but I believe it was originally done because the bodywork was
tatty and needed sorting out.
I have a midget that will become a BEC frogeye racer - if I was going to get that wrapped it would probably by in leopard skin or tiger stipes...

there is a lambo spider that i have seen quite a few times, its had a wrap done which is mainly white with carbon fiber looking engine cover,
something like that looks the nuts (until white goes out of fashion) and would help give the car a modern look.
how you would then incorporate a spitfire theme is the tricky part.
away from cars, now cycling and building TT bikes

That's exactly what I was talking about!
I want that for my midget - how much does this stuff cost?

A race rep would be easy and give it a sporty look.

Any have any ideas of the likely costs?
As some day it may happen that a victim must be found,
I've got a little list-- I've got a little list
Of society offenders who might well be underground,
And who never would be missed-- who never would be missed!

They took about 10 hrs and two men for the bigger trucks and about 7 hours and two men for the smaller ones
we have the trucks wrapped as they stick in your mind long after normal sign writing is forgoten, loads of people ring up and say are you the people
with the cool trucks!!!
