Inspiration required for Scumball car!

[ChrisDT]

Well, my brother (and possibly me) will be doing the Scumball this year and for our sins and through a bit of alcohol fuelled buying we have gone and got a 1999 T Vectra SRi V6 saloon, touring car replica I hear you say which was our first thought the only problem is its old man burgundy and we don't want to throw silly money at it getting wraps done or paint so, what can we do?

It's totally standard, even has the Irmscher 'Double D' exhaust on it!

Just to back up my comment to show I was only being 50% sarcastic that volvo looks hilarious.

We did think about the usual Matt black/white/powder blue stuff, but want to leave the colour as on paper it's not a bad car, only 2 owners, MOT and Tax etc, so ideally whatever we did should be reversible to try and recoup some money back from it.

Ok, new option! Might wrap it and do it as the Toruing car replica! Anyone fancy wrapping it cheap! It's budget charity rallying here people!

Paint it with chalk board paint and then you can chalk all over it and do it like the BTCC Vectra but in chalk. That would be awesome. And then whilst on the rally you can encourage people to doodle on it.

Did think of this but would like to return it to standard after. Had a pace car idea with strobes and graphics that might look good!

Plastidip spray it and peel it off when you're done.
