    There are a few bits that are a legacy of previous schemes on the car but I’d quite like to be a bit braver with the graphics. The problem is that all the panels are so curvy that the message doesn’t get across.

    Any ideas welcome – not too rude please.

    And before any clever dicks reply, the lad who put on my numbers had to travel home UNDER the van 😀

    Hi Mark, what was on the vehicle and what have you added ?
    It all seems to fit together quite nicely, looking at it I would not have known that only part of the livery had just been applied.

    Mark,

    I gather this is your car, tell me more about it, spec wise. I’m really into Lancers…

    At least a Cossy is 3 door so you have a whole panel to play with 😀

    The car has been in my “other” companies graphics, but still coloured writing on a white car if you get my drift. I’d toyed with covering panels in coloured vinyl with the lettering in white showing through – stop some of the stonechips too!

    Not the place to go into cars here or Rob will be getting involved – suffice to say it’s full Group A and is as quick as an old guy like me can handle 😆

    Hi , I used to do vinyl car graphics, things like the old ford zebra striping, BMW touring car chequers etc… mind this was done by hand before I got the money together for a plotter. But the end results were seen in magazines like Max Power.

    I would do something that Robert suggested with your name, remove the chequers by the handle, and do a graphic that sweeps over the back quarter of the car. Pherhaps something with the mitsibushi symbol?

    You could also change the colour of some of the car with some vehicle wrap.

    I think the front of the car looks fine its just the back quarter I would look at.

    I would love to see the end result.

    Take care Steve
