I've just bought my girlfriend a fiesta zetec s to use as a track car to stop her stealing mine and was looking to get it stickered up race car style.

The car is black and i'm looking for a bit of inspiration. Has anyone got any ideas/images they think would look good on it from a race car new or old?

It's just a bit of fun so not wanting to spent thousands on a full on bespoke wrap or anything.

My first thought was a jagermeister or historic ford theme.

Black WRC Fiesta


Or some gold graphics for JPS Lotus, or Martini stripes on the top and sides (yes I know this one is a 911)



If its the same shape Fiesta as the top photo, its in Forza on Xbox so mockups could be made up.

Some great ideas there, thanks!

JPS is a good one and that WRC car looks pretty good. I might try and combine a bit of each without going overboard although i'm not very artistic so may just stick to one idea to be safe!

has to be classic ford livery IMHO

Gulf might be a bit too cliche so how about the Rothmans RS2000 from the Mikkola era, the Castrol rs1600, the red and gold "Alan Mann" colourt scheme?

What's the point is spending money on a livery, it won't make her quicker. Spend the money on instruction instead.

What a strange thing to say. Using your logic why do anything?

I'm perfectly capable of instructing her myself and the point is that i want livery on it. If i didn't i wouldn't have asked the question and posted 'Where is the best race instructor' instead. Thanks for your input though.

That's a good looking Clio, i just sold my 182 track car the other week to get something else. I'm struggling to think of anything better than another Clio though at the moment!

Sadly typical of PH of late.

Thanks for the mock up above, i'm quite liking the martini theme.
