I it has been a while since i did any big changes to my mini.......so i'm going to wrap it vinyl!
i'm planning to do the whole except the roof (of course!). the only thing i'm stuck on is what colour will i go?
i love the flat black but it's impossible to keep it clean.....any ideas??/
Gunmetal grey? Stylish and won't show dirt for months.
i was thinking of grey as well as red, but my wife and kids think i should go away from safe colours and do something really eye catching!
not sure yet tho! 50.gif
;D LIME GREEN

Getting wrapped tomorrow eh?! I'm with Willie on this one, clownfish would be badass. 22.gif
dropped my mini of at the shop today!!! checked out the vinyl, it was looking cool!!
i was talking to the owner of the shop and he looked more excited about the wrapped than i was!!! he also told me that my mini was so small that he was able to use one sheet to do the whole side on the car instead of making each panel (which was a 1st he's heard or seen in his line of work). 4.gif 4.gif 4.gif
Is it done yet? Is it done yet? Is it done yet? It's Wednesday is it done yet? ;D
Just one sheet per side huh? The less seams the better! 17.gif

2.gif I think you hit a homerun on that choice of color 23.gif and an RBI on the tire stripes... VERY COOL ! !
Karma point ! !
NICE!!!!!!!
Nice job on the custom grill and surrounds.
I bet the guy that did it said the next one will be 3 times the price.
It really does look super. Shows off the wonderful body lines.
