Been planning on wrapping my 914 with printed vinyl for several months. Had a mockup of the design finished this past winter. Finally built the full-size graphics and began printing the vinyl today. I have experience wrapping flat surfaces such as walls and enclosed trailers so the doors and deck lids on the 914 should be a breeze.
However... the flares are going to be a challenge. I have decided to do a color layer first and then add the graphic elements separately (the doors and deck lids have base layer and graphics printed as one). Any tips on how to best apply the wrap to the flares without ending up with a wrinkly mess would be greatly appreciated. steve (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

I want to do the flip side of this on one of my teens, plaster the car in race stickers and then wrap it, makes it bleed through like a cheap paint job over an old race car. I saw a car done this way, it's cool but subtle at the same time.
