    plenty of on-line libraries for hi-res images and inspiration then I tweek them to my needs and clients requirements.

    also as a designer I create my own images with adobe illustrator and photoshop before producing as hi-res files.

    I also use illustrator as a pure digital illustration tool again before creating as hi-res before production.

    aha Nicola I see – well its based on the GULF racing colors which is usually the centre stripe solid orange and the rest of the car light blue but as its a blue car to start with I reversed the color scheme – it looks stunning in the flesh honest 😉

    yep, we have 2 or 3 JCW’s booked in for full wraps in the next few weeks 🙂 one being for a dealer so no pressure as I will be wrapping it in their showroom as they are 3 hours from my studio !

    right i’ll explain myself a wee bit better, on cars especially minis, i like all the colours to match up with the rest of the car….yes the lights are red, so I would have put a thinner red stripe instead of the orange one, i just like everything to look together hope that made sense 😮 😉

    Peter – yeah had to print it as I couldn’t find a vinyl too.

    Nicola – wish the customer want to do a full wrap but he has other plans as I’m wrapping the roof in Carbon in a few weeks also doing all the chrome detail in carbon too 😉
