I have fallen into the 'Bling' trap

Post by Shermio » Sat Aug 12, 2006 3:25 pm

Right... well whoever is in Auckland and have seen my car will have noticed that on the back of my seat there are 2 prancing stallions in white... but after comments about it looking like a Ferrari emblem I have decided to take it off.... (I just like stallions... goes with my nick name ;) )

Onto the fun part!

I'm pretty creative by nature and decided to custom make my own decals... I went to a local sign writer and brought a roll (1300 X 600mm) of brushed alloy vinyl design film... (Great deal!! now I may have enought to stripe Molly) :D

I decided to go for the 'Angel vs. Devil look and well here's the results... these were designed by me, cut by me and applied by me :P I feel proud!

And I hope the weather clears up so I can wash Molly... she's filthy :cry:

They were on the car when I got it... I believe it to be painted... it matches well with the Titanium body colour... They could be powder coated... not sure... but it is more matt than a gloss has a rough feeling to it... and it's made of steel :wink:
