Vinyl wrapping my whole car?

[Spirit]

For those that don't know but you don't need to inform DVLA of the colour change simply because it's not permanent.

Funny, was gonna ask that very question.

What about though if a copper does a PNC check and of course comes back as a different colour and he pulls you ? I guess you would have to peel some of it off to prove the original colour ?

I will possibly look into this Mike, need to get my monster back on the road first!

There is a place local to you.
Old boy was amazed when he was working across the road and see the transformation

speakign of this thread. I priced up to see what my legnum would cost to get redone in vynal. 1900 dollars., hmmm think a paint job would go down much better.

Andy,i think you should get it wrapped with CVR4 plastered all over in big letters and it could be the official Club car and sponsered by the club

If there traffic cops Pete they should in theory already know the law, but if it's not then a jobs worth could be potentially a great big pain in the arse.

I would say get some paper work from DVLA stating it does not need to be changed. But we all know if someone digs there heels in it could cause problems but why should you be made to do something that's not eligible by law?

in one easy move you too can show them the original colour.

POP THE HOOD! and they can see the colour. mind you thats so simple it just might not work

Most of you will know that I'm planning on getting my bonnet vinyl rapped to match my car. In the last week or so I'v been looking at some drift & tack cars with all the sponsor's plastered all over them.

I'v now been thinking of having something like this done to my car. I don't want company names all over it but something a bit different. Something that would stand out. I'm undecided & wanted some opinions to see what you guys think.

although many here think otherwise, i love a wrapped / graphic'd car based on white. go extreme, why not?!

as someone above mentioned, SJS Designs do some good stuff which if you treat as modular and buy what you like and add it all into one design you'd get something unique, and also as mad as you like. i reckon legnums look the business all japp'ed up in graphics, be it seperate vinyls or body wrap plus decals.

...........and as for the DVLA colour discussion, regardless of DVLA rules on when the colour must be notified, if a full colour change you should consider it as the cops use that info as informational only, and if a car they PNC as they go by comes back as a different colour from what they just saw youre getting stopped and turned over regardless of any DVLA rule or of who is right and who is wrong............................

Sticker bomb the whole car....try picking a colour for the DVLA then!

I actually quite like the sticker bomb look...i suspect my missus might go mental if i stickerbombed the bumber, wing mirrors and tailgate spoiler lol. Thinking about it, i could sticker bomb the strut brace and she would never know :ninja:

Maybe i could persuade her to let me buy some of those sexy canard things that go on the front bumper and sticker them up! i could just say the kids did it.

One can only go by what one has been told by the powers that be!!!

pretty much all the satin coloured cars you see on the roads are wrapped, a satin spray job is extremely hard to do because it has to be perfect straight of the gun.

im planning on having my track car wrapped in satin grey, maybe in the next 2 months, so will get pics up once its done.

[Oggie]

ya know what? after watching youtube body wrapped cars I have decided they aint so damn tacky anymore lol.
When I think of Vinal, I cant help but think gfx designs.
lif its a temp paint job you need then i spose a body wrap is the best idea.

[orionn2o]

So what are you going to go for then Andy after all of this time~?

[aboo]

Matt. If I am to do it, it will be a while. I do still like the idea though

[aboo]

Reading through the thread again the sticker bomb idea has caught my eye for the bonnet. I have seen a few cars with that now but its all been small cars. Don't know if it would look right on such a big bonnet & would it be to chavy?

[aboo]

I may go for the sticker bomb look on the bonnet after looking at this on FB https://www.facebook.com/pages/Stick...79396728761646. If it doesn't look good then it can be peeled off & cleaned.

I have just started a new business with a junior partner. His other business is vinyl wrapping. Does Police cars, Ambulances, Vans for the Sky installation guys and also one offs.

Very interesting Can you get me a price for a 1.5m x 1.5m sheet of vinyl with the sticker bomb look?

[SteveH]
