Hey Guys,

I noticed these days you can get custom wallpaper. Only problem is I cant find a suitable supplier.
Basically I have a wallpaper on my laptop I want on my wall, its two Porsches and iv seen on some websites that Ken Block has a massive wall covered with a pic of Colin McRaes rally focus. Just wondered if anyone has had some custom wallpaper themselves or know a good supplier. Cheers

Not wallpaper, but our local sign shop has one of its internal walls covered in a picture. Might be worth a shot?

I saw this on a tv programme once, i think they had it printed as a massive sticky backed print that stuck on the wall. In fact, it may even have been the gadget show now that i think about it.

Hi there,

I would also be interested in this - I posted the same topic here as the OP several months ago but did not get any response.

Will this be an actual wall paper printed on a roll for adhesive aplication or a single sheet large mural size print. I have a geometric pattern that I would like printed that is repeatable so a roll format would be handy but a single sheet would also be ok.

They are "normal" style rolls - depending on the backing paper you pick to have the image / pattern printed on, in 52cm or 70cm wide rolls.

The image is chopped up into the rolls, with an overlap trimmable join, and the drops come numbered. Normally a diagram is supplied as well.

I did a complete house for a big-name footballist and used it on 3 walls of a games room - as if standing in a stadium on the centre spot and looking round. Looked awesome.
