Hey All

I work in the car graphics industry, its my full time job designing, recreating vinyl graphics, fitting etc etc from silly little stickers to full vehicle wraps and large truck graphics..

As a Williams 3 owner i was going to try recreating various stickers for the clio, things like sparkplug cover graphics maby sunstrips etc this would be for fun, however i would need some good quality pics and accurate measurments of existing graphics in order to retrace them to create the replicas, if anyone thinks this is a good idea then let me know and i will with your help get to work on them,,,

If i manage to replicate these and you guys think they are acceptable guality i will for a SMALL fee (covering my costs) supply you with the various graphics...

recreating the graphics is the easy part, its getting the exact colour match which is the hard bit, so it will prob be trial and error getting the colour right (believe me there are hundreds of shades of various colours)

Does it sound like a god idea??? :?

How good were the one's you replicated?
From memory you had the size/design spot on? only the colour was a problem?

I swapped the blue and was happy with it - I run one on the back of the willy along with the genuine side decals. no-ones ever noticed so thats good enough for me - no-one was interested at the time so I binned the rubbish and kept the good set for mine, then titch wanted to try his hand so I thought I'd let someone else do the hard work! :D

I'm only pushing titch along cus I want a set :D

Well that must have been the shortest genuine sticker application ever - bodyshop had to fix a blemish and now I have no rear quarter sticker :shock: :? :lol: :lol:
