Default Racing Wraps

The paint scheme on the infamous "Orca" got me thinking about a wrap for my 951. I have several favorite vintage race Porsche's that I think look great and probably wouldn't be hard to replicate in a wrap for the 951.

I was thinking maybe the Rothmans or Lowenbrau 962's paint scheme might be interesting. Any idea's?

Is this a road or track car? It looks road...therefore do you want such a racey wrap on this car? If it's a track car...well you've got a choice between booze or **** (slang for cigarettes) lol...The Lowenbrau would be a 'rarer' look but the Rothmans probably strikes a bigger chord for Porsche fans.

The Rothmans livery was used on 944s. A few different variations, from the Canadian Turbo Cups, to the Escort cars, which were very similar to the 956/962 graphics.

I was just thinking about the Rothmans Turbo Cup cars. Thank you for the picture.

To answer your question Patrick, I would proudly rock the graphics on the street. A friend has a cool BMW 2002 and you wouldn't believe the love it gets.

I really like the old Martini and Brumos liveries. Here's an example of a 944 done up in Brumos livery (not my link/car): http://rennsportkc.com/brumos-comes-to-town/

There are some Martini examples if you search "944 Martini Racing" on google.

M stripes make everything better. I really love what they did with the E36 M3 LTW:

I've thought about getting a machine that can print wraps... but at $25,000 - I need a bunch of people to pre-order them.
