a rendering they sent. I'll select a silver color and work on the stripes.

Louis-- Stripes for Christmas? In the meantime, real-life examples:

More food for thought, from Geoff:

I really like it.

Default Stripes

Hi guys. My name is Jon and I work for VBD Graphics in Harrisonburg, VA. I noticed the discussion about vinyl and stripe kits and thought I would drop in and offer some of our services and photos of our work. We specialize in motorsports graphics and wraps. All of our designs are done in house as well as our installations. We just recently finished a Cayman Martini Livery. Take a look at the pictures and you will notice we stopped the stripe at the hood line and also on the door right before the wheel wells. This white of the car helps to add some color so that the stripe doesn't seem to run directly through the into the wheel well.

Feel free to check out our work on our facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/pages/VBD-G...04812036229380
or our website: http://www.vbdgraphics.com/ (currently in the redesign phase)

You can direct any emails to vbdinfo@gmail.com








A picture of our shop car (far left) along with some of our other client's cars at the infamous Oak Tree at VIR. Our e46 M3 is fully wrapped (100% coverage) while the other cars range in amount covered. The blue and black GT3 is about 70% covered while the e36 and red and yellow GT3 are 40-50% covered.

Sorry, there's nothing to show. I'm paralyzed by all the good looking choices. Maybe Jager could just choose one for me? Today I am thinking something like the RS 4.0 without the side stripes. If this stripe what colors on AR?

I have some time to decide. The Porsche isn't coming out from under the cover in the garage for a while. We got about 28 inches of snow Thurs-Fri and it was -2 F last night. All the way up to 10 F now. Come on spring!

You can wrap the side mirrors also so if you ever change your mind easy removal.

Silver to compliment your wheels & contrast with Arena Red. Next question?
