Do people find these stickers damage their paint at all?

If I make sure it's applied properly, to clean paint, and removed with a hair dryer - surely I'll be OK?

If I end up taking my Twingo, I may go for an Alpine Renault vibe.
Yes, you must heat the stickers with a hairdryer while gently pulling them off. If you do not heat up the stickers you may pull the lacquer off your paint!

Add lip-stick & colour the door bar:



Or some take on the 2013 'Art Car'?

You could try Aliexpress website. Mainly China and Signapore, very cheap and good! But please order on time, because the delivery may take about 30 days.
I'd advice to order at members with several positive feedback comments.
Already ordered some fun stuff for my new Beemer 4 series Gran Coupe;-)

If you don't mind, where did you get that sticker set from? Always liked the JPS scheme, thought about the same for my alfa.

I'm struggling with how brave I go with this (including a colour change or wrap of the roof)



Having done this before



And whether I do as below but with the stripes running over the rear side windows/rear window


Or is there something more "Mini" like that I could do without a full wrap or is it the "less is more" to mimic the Italian Job cars? Whatever I go with is guaranteed to annoy SWMBO given the previous comments biggrin

I use a company called www.justvehiclegraphics.co.uk they were great the last time around and they can arrange fitting as well if you're not confident.

Get graphics made up to imitate this - would look epic:

Edited this post as I've moved the question to the PH Shop subforum.

For anyone interested, I've asked the question about PH Le Mans 2016 stickers here:

I've spotted the 2016 page is now fully operational for those looking for a more simple approach to the main theme on their "chariots" thumbup

I've been thinking about next years stickers as well.

So here's my Le Mans history...


2005 and 2006 - hadn't discovered stickers


2007, my first foray into stickers, they cost a lot (and then we discovered Holographics the following year!)


So in 2008 we started to have some Sticker fun! (thanks Dan!)


2009 was more of the same


But in 2010, 2 fat blokes bought some blond wigs and made a plan in a pub over a few beers


How to follow the well received hair dressers theme? Well I didn't, just went stripes again


In 2012 I had spent a lot on a full respray so the MX5 went naked (but an Aston came with us so nobody noticed!)


In 2013 time was short and I was running out of ideas so Scissorheads made a come back (this time my passenger was a lady and not another fat bloke though!). Oh and the eye lashes barely made Dover.


2014 was another idea hatched in a pub. Fartini is funny right? Sounds like Martini and Fart? We thought so. Had the stickers on for a month until someone suggested that I google the meaning of Fartini - remember, if you see the meaning of Fartini you CANNOT unsee it!


So after the shock of Fartini I decided to keep it sensible and as the MX5 was originally a homage to Lotus I decided to go for my take on Gold Leaf Lotus Racing. In some ways my favorite but it took a little bit of paint off the rear wing (and also took some paint off the Freelander grill that I asked my mate to drive with the tents in)


So I thought about 2016, I haven't done anything with green and green and red go, slightly stumped I asked Stickers4.com for a suggestion and they came up with this....


Not sure if that will work so I'm still thinking :-)
sorry stickers4 but NO NO NO. Italian colours on an MX5? No. Metallic red Mazda at an endurance race.

how about

or

plenty of potential to play with sponsor names there too!
