Ever wondered what your car would look like with graphics?

I've gotten into AX and wondered what my car would look like with some decals....so I did a little "photoshop" to play around....can get all but the porsche decal as magnetics very inexpensively, so they would be easy to remove at any time.....what do you think?

It looks great for the track if you actually do SCCA solo, otherwise it looks silly for the street. I like the idea of magnetic decals if they stick. I have the Rennsport track day numbers for my P car and they look great and don't fly off at speed.

Even with vinyl....they can be applied easily and removed easily. They are also cheap if bought in bulk and don't fly off at speed. Get 5-6 copies, apply, peel, toss....

Let me know if I can help ya out.

This is the second white car I have owned, I have always wanted to try a zebra scheme. It would be temporary of course.

Gunlover, I would not recommend putting magnetics on that pretty black paint. You will get scuffs and stains that will be frustratingly impossible to buff out. I did That on My MINI cooper S and wound up regretting it.

Here's mine with and without - Dutton Rally in Australia is a 3 day event with a mix of full circuits, autocross, and other driving challenges. Great fun!








Would I drive on the street with the stickers? Hell no. I get enough unwanted attention anyway!

wish I could take credit for it. I saw it on a car a while ago and, I didn't know where to buy it from so I've made my own.
