Don't get me wrong lads, I'll be giving it a go myself. Looking into buying rolls of vinyl now. I'll get the numbers made up for the sides and the gt2 badge for the back, but won't be going into too much detail on the rear and no vinyl on the roof
How hard can it be??? Lol

I was considering this last year, to keep the cost down I was just going to buy thin rolls of vinyl 10mm-25mm wide and 15m in length and just cut a curve on the end of them. Still works out at a lot of strips to get something similar to that though  I look forward to seeing it!

Hi All
I am planning to go to Le Mans this year and was wondering if anyone can recommend a place near where I live near Waterlooville that could sticker up my car, also what type of cost am I looking at? bonnet and both sides?
Any advice appreciated.

Rob Can't help with a place near you as I always buy online then apply myself! Where near Waterlooville are you? I'm not far from thewre myself? PS try PH member XLLIFTS, he lives in the area and has his work vans stickered!

Smother it in stickers. Go wild!
Mine will be quite covered for the trip
Lost a bid on some rolls of vinyl today so still on the hunt. Not sure if I can use sign vinyl or if it needs to be car specific. Anyone know the answer?

So the normal sign vinyl is fine but will be tricky to work round curved edges?
Cheers for the quick response mate. Much obliged

My lack of creativity is starting to shine through. No idea what to do to the zed... The Nissan liveries that I like (the old calsonic and Pennzoil skylines or the ordonez prototype) don't really work on an orange car and it is the wrong orange to try and do a gulf...
Could just got for the usual numbers, generic lm and drivers names stickers, but wanted to do it properly this year! Any ideas chaps?

Cheers for the quick response mate. Much obliged Yeah, normal vinyl will be fine. It's just that is has what they call a 'memory', so if you wrap it around say a wing mirror, it will being to shrink and lift at the edges. Where as cast vinyl is a lot more conformable and made easier using a little heat from a hair dryer/heat gun.... but not too hot or it'll melt haha

I have asked Hollographics for a quote on either of the below, the art car, I only plan on having the front end done, obviously all price dependent. Am starting to get bloody excited now and it's still 5 months away
