Race car graphics

RichV · Jan 31, 2013

So I want a new look for 2013. This is what I was thinking ...

I will be changing the #s on sides and front/back. The side #s have to be at least 10" tall, front/back #s are 5".

Anyone want to give me some alternatives?

The sticker guys are: www.ratracinggraphics.com, never used them, they are cheap and support racers, but I'm game for anything.

hanksville sponsors you? nice.

Schiffy · Jan 31, 2013

You're looking for somebody to do your new numbers and whatever other sponsor decals you have? Did I understand that right? Lol... If so, shoot me a PM. If not, ignore me. Haha

I like the big 71, myself.

I dunno ? maybe you like and ah maybe you don't! LOL!

Did you choose yet, RICH?

RichV · Feb 3, 2013

Well, I have a sweet idea, but I've been trying to photoshop/photobucket my ideas, and either I just suck at it or I don't have the cool programs.

So ... here's my idea, maybe you can help Hawk.

Boss Laguna Seca scheme.
Green Boss stripe, but the '70 boss starting at the sideskirt then angling up over the hood and stop. Just a hockystick looking stripe.
Green roof like LS Boss and some green accents.
Instead of BOSS logo in the stripe, it should be CMC.
Remove all blue accent and replace with green.

Sorry I suck at PS, all my attempts came out like a 3 year old scribble.

I think you shoud paint it orange and call it a day

haha kidding

I'm not sure i like the neon green against just the black, the white and green together looks better IMO

Do you have a nice angled picture of your car, that is close that I can work with? That side shot is gonna be tough to use.

And I need a Green paint chip..so I know what green you want..

rich...you mess around a little on photobucket? if so, i think they are pretty good examples ya chopped there. not bad at all.

RichV · Feb 3, 2013

I did Tony. Been dickin' around with it on and off yesterday and a little this morning. It just ain't workin' for me. I did the 1st pic using Roxio Photo Editor on my PC, Darhawk did the others. I cannot get the old editor to work, tried that fotoflexer as well, a lot of editing options but didn't seem to have the layering like Killn described in the other thread. Maybe it's because I just signed up, so the old editor is not available to me.

Hawk, here's a little better pic with the angle. I like what you did, essentialy that's what I'm envisioning. With the exception of the round # plates, I prefer the #71 in green with the white shadow like in my 1st pic.

Rich you need a painjob my dude! I like Dark's zombie theme haha that's badass

Well, I found a black SN hood I bought last year that is almost perfect, matches the rest of the car great. Couldn't pass it up for $50, came with matching front bumpercover too (GT). The roof is the only bunk part I gotta deal with.

Do the roof in vinyl! Do it all Green and have your numbers in White with a Black outline in the middle. Would be a quick and cheap fix. I definitely like the green though.

Darhawk · Feb 4, 2013

Sorry I added the circle with the numbers in it. I took creative liberty..lol

RichV · Feb 21, 2013

So I ordered up my #s. This is the proof ...

They're gonna send me a small piece of the green so I can match some spray cans. I want to do my sideskirts green, the roof green, and maybe inside the grille (kinda like the mach1 piece) in green. Whatcha all think? Too much green?
