rami Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 hey guys. heres the story i have a series 1.5 White r33 m spec. already have the shopping list stickers on the front of the doors as u can see in the photos. but im planning on slamming my car on its ass, painting the boot and the bonnet black. and removing the rear wing. I want to organise a huge door length sticker from the begining of the door near the other stickers right up to the end of the car or anything close to that. maybe something like a apexi decal or even a performance sticker as i am planning on engine work. but if i was to go out and buy a sticker. where can i find them? is there a website and does anyone have any ideas. prefferably red white grey and black mixed colours in the sticker is what im looking for, but anything goes as long as it looks good. heres a pic of my car as it is. and i will update pics as i spray the boot and bonnet. and remove the wing and atm its getting the coilovers adjusted. cheers would really like some help heres some chaddy pics i made up on paint. shit effort but heres the idea i think an ignition sticker sideways along the car would look good but is it hard to get my hands on one?? any other ideas would be welcome cheers Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/169171-help-on-styling-have-a-mini-project-happening/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zilch* Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Mate I like the mean jap look you're talking about, hence why my car is dropped and failry stock looking with driftek rims. I'm not too crazy about putting a big decal on a car though, I like the shopping list on the doors but if I was too ever put a graphic design on the car itself I would probably pay a fortune to have it airbrushed. Still if you like the look if it then that's what matters in the end, don't be bullied by peoples opinions of your car. Here's a pic to help you decide Good luck with it and give Taran a Pm, he can point you in the right direction.

rami Posted May 18, 2007 Author Share Posted May 18, 2007 hey zilch. uve seen my car b4. i dont know if u remember. but about october last year we exchanged high beams and thumbs up on pittwater rd. u remember?? by looking at ur car im pretty sure it was u as for the sticker on the side. i get what ur saying. a huge sticker on the side will either make the car look 10 times better or 10 times worse. hopefully a nice sized apexi sticker with the emblem is what i might be lookin at. thats AFTER i crack a late 12 sec pass hopefully (with a pfc ofcourse no high hoper here) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/169171-help-on-styling-have-a-mini-project-happening/#findComment-3128113 Share on other sites More sharing options...

75coupe Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 When doing car graphics vinyls are the best, airbrushing might be the ultimate but when you want to be able to change the graphics and see what it looks like with spending up big time, you can't beat vinyl.... Why don't you see if I can come up with a custom vinyl design that you would like. And I can alway incorporate a tuner logo into a design.

killswitch88 Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 black bonnet looks good on the cars with a nice set of dishies but ive gotta say shopping lists along with other decals have got to be the ultimate wank mod. i mean if u want to be fully sik bro then by all means go for it but god theres gotta be better ways to spend ur money. if u must get one of those greddy stickers and have it going diagonal down the side of ur car *shudders* Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/169171-help-on-styling-have-a-mini-project-happening/#findComment-3130343 Share on other sites More sharing options...
lingeringsoul Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 thanks boys... dont be shy for comments whether it would look good or not or any ideas... im just chasing that mean jap look (black bonnet black boot white deep dish wheels cheers for a mean jap look, you don't slam the car on its ass, that's australian/american, japs have it lowered to a sensible height. Carbon fibre bonnets look jap and painted OEM look ghetto american. Fix up that front bar, chopped front bar are lebbo style (i apologise if that term is incorrect)not jap style, they buy yourself a nice front diffuser. For a true jap look, get a nice looking gt wing or if you are going wingless, go for the drift wing rather than leaving a gap where the orginal wing is suppsoed to be. This is just my interpretation of a True Jap Look.

rami Posted May 25, 2007 Author Share Posted May 25, 2007 ive so far lowered the rear end... and kept the front a touch high... so the wheels dont rub against the guards when i turn.. it sits beautiful not to low and still looks mean, we have removed the rear wing but havnt painted the boot or bonnet black yet.. so far without any huge sticker it looks very good as it is.... trying to get photos organised to prove how good this can really look. we have also put a dummy sticker on the side just to see if it does work out.. 1/2 the workshop said noooo dont dont blah blah and the other half said go for it... although this sticker isnt what im after (just a logo of the performance shop im at BTA MOTORSPORT) it does look great and everyone in the workshop did agree it does look alot meaner than b4.. the sticker was big enough to cover most of the door and abit behind the door too... if i can organise some pics just to show u guys what im after.... trust me im one person who wont want my car looking like 1 of those plastic fantastic looking excels with dirty fake looking ugly stickers.... they gotta work with the car and if they dont then there not going on.
