These are great! thanks for posting. We are still working on designs but I am starting to get some great ideas.

We finished a wrap last week so here are a couple of those shots plus a couple back end designs we did.

I love the Dragon one I saw on another thread too. That's the stuff I'm talking about!

On a side note. When dealing with local since shops be careful of what type of vinyl they use. Most sign shops use low or medium grade vinyl for indoor signs and temporary stuff. It's fine to use that on a car if you are only going to keep in on there for a few weeks. Anything more permanent should be done with high end cast vinyl. We use only cast vinyl in our shop since everything we do is for cars. This vinyl has a 7 to 10 year out door durability.

Just FYI


So here are few we came up with and will work on more later in the week.

Yes, I had my best friend's best friend come up with four different options and I liked that one the best. He is the greatest! Glad you liked the stripes. I posted all of the pictures on my gallery!

Might not necessarily be the "stripes" you were looking for.... but....





Can't see it in the picture, but at the end of the "flames" stripes... there's a little touch of blended gray paint added as smoke. I should really try to get a better picture of that dragon. not so dark, and maybe use a tripod.....

Looks good. You'll be required to go to the Tail of the Dragon meet now that you put a dragon on your car.

Slightly off-topic. Your dog must be jealous of your car and how much time you are spending with it now. It almost looks like he is sort of telling it what he thinks about it.
