Default Vinyl Wrap - Help wanted for creating a design!!!

Hello all,

I own an obsidian 2011 ISF. I plan on vinyl wrapping the car come spring time and I am looking for some help from the ISF community. One or some of you may be interested in doing a design for my car and I'm looking to see if there is any interest out there in this forum to help.

I have a few ideas in my head of what I would like to do. I would like the car to be somewhat of a show piece but not over the top with stupid images within the wrap.

It is black, so I understand that under the hood, trunk and in the door jams will be black. This will not even look out of place if I choose colors properly.

My thoughts are to go to Gun Metal Grey as a base color. This is the color I wish I had bought all along. Within the wrap, I am thinking black flames coming from the brake vents on the side going all the way down the car. Maybe an F badge logo on the hood. Maybe some sort of image on the rear bumper of the car. The more graphics the better as this will make it truly stand out!


Is anyone interested in taking on this challenge and design a vinyl wrap for me that I can take to my local shop and have them put it on my car. I could even pay someone some cash if they really wanted to get paid for it. I could use paypal for a payment.


Thanks everyone! You can write within this post or send me a PM. It is ok to have multiple sources help with the design. It can be somewhat of a contest if you wish... lol.

Vinyl wrap a big M badge on hood. Underglow is tacky nowadays, so just mount multicolored LEDs on your door sills. Don't forget the colored window tints.
Or here's another route (preferred): dump money on suspension and drivetrain, and have race cor.
Rock chips are sexier than vinyl.

Your stupid *** opinion like that means nothing to me so keep those kind of comments to yourself.

Why do people have to try to be dicks like this...?

I am looking for some help in a design, not your opinion on what I should "actually" do to my car...



EDIT: Please keep this thread clean, I don't need to hear about what you think I should do with my car. I just want some support and designs to be made up with ideas and helpful suggestions.
What you think is cool and out of date now a days, really does not mean anything to me at all. Where I live, my ISF is the only one in the city and the only 1 around within a few hundred miles. Its a very rare car for where I live.


KEEP IT CLEAN PLEASE.

That was churlish of me. I apologize.
To get back onto topic, here's a good starting platform:



it might be a handful to upkeep.

It was a good snap back for me and those **** do look nice...

Anyways, I have posted what I wanted, I don't need to see any pictures that I can google myself. I am looking for someone to create the design for me.

Thank you.

I really like the subtle look. Maybe do the flames under the vinyl.

That is what i am thinking. Have the flames within the wrap so they are there, but you need to be next to the car to see them. You cant see them from a distance.

Still hoping we have a designer on these boards looking for a challenge for fun!

Another thing I saw which was pretty interesting was the Matte clear vinyl, it would be interesting to see some colorful vinyl designs on top of the black paint, not coving the entire paint but incorporated into an intricate design throughout the car and then do the matte clear over it. That way your black paint is still protected, but it will have a matte pearl effect to it, as will all the colorful decals that will show through from underneath. I wouldn't personally wrap it multicolored but if thats what you end up doing it would be interesting to see how it turns out!

Keep in mind the longevity of the wrap. Most companies say it'll last 3 years for external use and 5 for internal.
