Sticker schemes for next year

[CaptainSlow]

on a black mx5? Which schemes fit well on a black car. I can think of JPS, any others?

[dougc]

RS500 Texaco?

eta - You could change it to read 'MXaco'

Perhaps a big sticker on the bonnet with "I got 'slicked' by BP !" ??

That's a good idea, one that I may use and claim was my own!

[Beerwagon]

Took my Merc E55 Estate randomly stickered up with fake sponsers names this year but will be taking a 1995 Merc SL Mille Miglia ltd edition next year, I was thinking of Moss and Jenks 1955 300SLR mille miglia replica stickers or 1955 Moss and Fangio 300SLR le mans car replica stickers what do you all think?

Also someone else in our convoy is taking a topaz blue BMW Z3, any idea's out there as we are struggling!

flames and white walls - 50's hot rod style

We're thinking of doing the warplane theme again next year although we'd like to get our own pin-up drawn and come up with a proper name for the 'plane' and the crew's names. Still waiting on our 'official' TL nicknames
Of course we'll be practising our squeegee-ing before then!

When you say getting your pin ups drawn are you trying to talk women into letting you draw them in their undies?

[LolitaSteve]

Haha, I've actually done makeup on some pin-up shoots, but we're thinking sweet-talking an illustration student from the local uni to design us our 'girl'

[Jimski]

sounds like fun, I like the old style pin ups

[Skywalker]

I love the idea of warplane nose art.

[TubbyNorman]

Gotta be Red Bull. Especially on a blue car. Go for it and we'll compare the result if we get the chance.

Jack Daniels?

Or:




Admittedly it'd be easier if your car were white!

since the old man has got rid of his XK60 and is getting a XFS in just over a week I want him to get some Graphics put on it this year as we didn't last year.

I wonder if there is anywhere that could come up with something for it...

Hollographics do custom decals - I had some done for 24 this year. I happened to design my own, but they will design stuff for you

There are loads of places that do them - I haven't tried any others, so can't compare

I know every client will be different but any idea what sort of cost they'd charge, from something simple like a Jag on each side to a full set of graphics?

[spanishchocolate]

I was charged per hour or similar, because I just had one big sticker knocked up - and as mentioned, had already designed it myself. It just needed putting into the appropriate format, a bit of fiddling, and producing

The charging structure may be different for larger projects. They seem to specialise in Le Mans graphics though. Best to contact them

Yes, possibly. But you won't get to Le Mans. you'll do about 15 miles the first day, the same the next day, and come race day you'll do a maximum of 30 miles and then go home on a trailer
