Very nice mate. Looks good

Crowman 07-07-2010 05:43 PM

The truth is i like alot of it and dont like some of it.
You certainly dont do things by half.
Things i dont like are numbers on windows and the stripes either side of the bonett.
Just my opinion, but the rest looks great. Hats off to you.:doubleup:

simonairheadz 07-07-2010 05:49 PM

thats the beauty of graphics easy on easy off lol,the window numbers and the colours on the bonnet are a ken block thing lol!
when i am on the straight through(tunnel runs only)the whole package works!(sound and vision)
im sure its too much for a lot of people,but i love it lol

Steve_PPP 07-07-2010 05:53 PM

mixed opinions too. like the wrc numbers on the doors and the monster graphics :ok:

but i'd also keep the glass sticker free and remove the bonnet stripes personally. and maybe some of the smaller stickers dotted around - just think it looks a bit busy.

still, you obviously get noticed :D

Looks good Simon, change is good now and again.:doubleup::10:

Greig 07-07-2010 06:55 PM

That looks well cool, agree about the bonnet
stripes but the rest is spot on! Makes it
look like a radio control car with the cb ariel
at the back:):doubleup:

AndyWRX 07-07-2010 07:43 PM

looks good mate some of the bits arent really my cup of tea though but as a whole it looks really good

Claire_PPP 07-07-2010 08:04 PM

Ah, spotted you in East Grinstead earlier at about 3.30ish :)

Frenchie 07-07-2010 08:53 PM

Tad busy,but I like it.

Chunk 07-07-2010 09:24 PM

My Cusco graphics weren't everybody's cup of tea, but like i was told... Your car, do what you want to it

simonairheadz 07-07-2010 10:23 PM

as said thats the magic of graphics,when you gwor tired of them,whip em off!
i like change!

worzel 08-07-2010 09:01 AM

I like everything except the stripes either side of the bonnet :nod:

:cool:

simonairheadz 08-07-2010 09:58 AM

lol got stopped by the local plod this morning................"loving the new look" great start to the day lol

worzel 08-07-2010 10:03 AM

Thats different :lol:

simonairheadz 08-07-2010 11:05 AM

actually my local plod are very scoobie friendly,after an incident in a local carpark(i got the car damaged)they told me as the cctv is done voluntarily they leave it on my car most of the time lol!!!!!!!!
and when i had my wheel colour changed one of my clients(whose a wpc)said"i see youve changed your wheels"i asked her when she saw the car,she said"oh no i was looking at it on cctv yesterday" lol
quality

Take a picture of the car in a non descript background and I would think its a radio controlled car :D

I'm not a graphics person myself but I think if your going to do graphics there is no such thing as over the top and yours looks great for a graphics car.

Looks good but door numbers are gonna get you pulled, as are illegal. They must be blank or struck through.

as posted earlier about local plod,i asked him about that,he said you would NEVER be nicked for that,as there would have to be proof that you were racing on the highway!
apparently there hasnt EVER been one prosecution for numbers on doors!
when you watch rally on tv and they pass through a used public road stage they never cross out their numbers(and thats on tv in front of millions)

simonairheadz 08-07-2010 01:32 PM

a email today from a client of mine,up in scotland just to clear this point up.

Dear simon,

Thank you for your email, which has been dealt with under the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002.

I forwarded your question to our Road Policing department, which has confirmed that door numbers are not illegal. Window numbers would only be illegal if the driver's forward or side vision was impaired.

Kind regards,

Gabriella Trybalska
Force Information Unit
Lothian and Borders Police

RobEvo5 08-07-2010 05:22 PM

For whats its worth back in the day I had a talbot sunbeam TI with effing great 42 door numbers and apart from being a plod magnet to pull me for the sake of it, I never got nicked or told to remove door numbers.

LOL.. I remember that thing, you gotta post some piccies up if you have them...oh and also that Fiat with wood, mars bar wrapers and filler holding the tailgate together.

Anger 08-07-2010 08:56 PM

I had my SDS race number on the RA for over a year and never got pulled for having them on show


Liking it a lot Simon... even the stripes on the bonnet ;)

simonairheadz 08-07-2010 10:37 PM

Anger 08-07-2010 10:41 PM

DrNick 08-07-2010 10:52 PM

Wasn't too sure about the stripes on the bonnet at first!

Looks the absolute nuts mate, love it, :10::10:
