hello people,

right im after getting this done in satin black, but cant seem to find anyone that can supply and fit this in a single piece

does anyone know of anywhere that can do this somewhere in london?

Have you tried likwidart? it would look good in that stuff

im no expert but why not mask off the design u want and use matt paint on it. if that makes sense.

[inky]

Piece of cake! All I need is a roll of black, bingo.

[p34nut]

that liquid art does look very impressive just not sure if it would look as good in such bulk

deffo dont want it sprayed, im really fussy and if it was anything less than perfect it would really bug me

ive had a price of about 60quid for it, the only reason i havent done it is that it isnt in 1 single piece

then you would need a wrap....this then be comes a lot more expensive....but you can get massive results from it






Ps...any one seen that car before

[inky]

If he just wants his bonnet doing in vinyl he won't need a wraparound, just some wide vinyl.

If you can measure your bonnet at its widest point (between the two corners by the wiper panel), see what that makes. I've got a roll, just don't know if it's wide enough. Also I think you want a matt-ish effect, not sure if my wife's supplier does that, if they do then "simples"

cheers inky,
will measue up today and post them up mate

sol, thanks but its abit too extreme for what im after

[Turbo97]

That will look awesome nut!

Good idea lad

[p34nut]

cheers turbo,

yeah i wanted vinyl but still wanted it to be subtle

[Squidge]

thats kinda trippy, i have been playin in photoshop today for a similar think on mine

im thinkin of smaller tho on the side starting from the wheel arch and the rays fading out through a check pattern

not finished the print for it yet tho

[inky]

Just re-read your original post, saw you wanted a satin type look. All I have is a roll of gloss black, or aluminium style, or white which is a bit boring.

Anyway have a look at the sizes and will see if I can load up photoshop and have a go at some cutouts.

[Squidge]

been playing again tonight and think im just having a sunstrip

trying to decide between



and

[inky]

Had a spare 15 mins so had a pop at this.

Made the design in illustrator.

Ran it to vinyl, cut out and done.

The cut-out, without carrier sheet (other guy does that tomorrow)


The donor car - would look better in red, so you get the Jap flag effect.


Trying it in position - unfortunately loaded the wrong width so its about an inch short at the top


I'll put it on tomorrow when the carrier sheet's been put on. Won't be on for long, and if its raining it won't be happening.

[p34nut]

that is exactly what im after mate, you are the man

is the sticker the very white parts? basically the negative of the sun.
im after the sun to be the vinyl, in a satin finish pref or maybe a dark grey

would you be able to do me some vinyl, paid for obviously?

[inky]

Yeah the red car (or blue in my case) would be the sun, white would be rays.

In your case I would just remove the opposite parts on the vinyl before I put the carrier sheet over it. Plus I'd need black vinyl maybe satin or matt effect?

Can't trade as I'm not an affiliate (yet) and I haven't got the design accurate enough to be happy with - see tomorrow when I put it on how far it is off or if its good.

[p34nut]

ok yeah will be good to see inky then we can go from there

[Turbo97]

i do like that....but think it would look better if the sun is a bit bigger

My personal oppinion of course

[inky]

Don't forget when it's in place, it'll be halfway (roughly) between the headlamp lid and the bonnet edge at the top, so going any bigger might look wrong.

It's all trial and error so far, see what tomorrow brings
