A friend who runs a graphics company asked to borrow it to train a new member of staff in vehicle wrapping.

It came back like this!!

It now seems to have accidentally become one of the picture cars fro next seasons UK motorsport!

I'll be on show and doing laps at Brands on Monday along with Sir Frank Williams in the New F2 car and Andy Piraulx.

Shouldn't do and obviously protects the paintwork from stone chips too. Goes on with a heat-gun, comes off the same way. All of the Gumball cars have wraps and decals from Racoon and we're talking up to Bugatti level.

The only damage that could happen is if some of the original colour was exposed and other parts were covered. This could lead to uneven paint fade over a long time. I like the idea of less stone chips

Thanks guys!

Yup it was green before. Bit of a stroke of luck on the getting it for free note! The guy has got 2 other guys from the race series signed up so far and they'll be paying £1000+ each! It takes about £400-500 of vinyl and took him about 3 days solid to do it.

Seems a bit unfair that just because of my cars colour, I'm invited to be the show car for the series at Brands tomorrow. 50+ media hacks will be there so I should appear in quite a few motor and racing mags next week!! biggrin

Not looking forward to getting up at half five!

Just returned from Brands......
Gregoire with the now stickered-up Union Flag Elise. Trouble is he's going to have to get on the podium if he's not gong to feel a right ol' plonker.
