We need to redesign the cars for 2008. They need to be orange and black. They also need to match, but they don't need to be twins. We want to be able to tell them apart for next year. We want them to be artful, but we still need to be able to read the sponsor logos...so keep that in mind. We will paint the cars for a background and then we can do the rest in vinyl.

Post up your design and if we choose yours we'll put it on our cars next year.

some Japanese examples:

We have a sticker plotter. I wouldn't mind a wrap but I don't want to pay for it. I have a paint sponsor.

Sorry I forget that not everyone knows our cars :)

It shouldn't take much more than knowing the cars need to be orange and black. The title sponsor is Maxxis. The rest of the logos shouldn't really matter just yet. That's just a matter of placement. I'm sure you can improvise for now. I'm speaking of the theme of the cars right now. I don't expect the paint scheme to stay the same either. It just has to be mostly or all orange.

Here's pics of the car:

BUT if you don't want to do the "all" orange scheme then maybe something like the G'zox JGTC 350z but that would be too much like the Hankook cars, which i seriously doubt Maxxis would be too fond of ;)

We like Konig. THEY have a lot of pull in the industry and they have been very good to us. They asked us to build a car for their SEMA booth which is a huge deal. Their booth is very high profile and it may give us the opportunity to get a free car out of the deal. You might be surprised to hear that lots of people like those wheels. Everyone always asks us about them at the events. Maxxis has no pull in the industry right now. They are starting to, but they are the new kids on the block.

Most of their wheels seem to only be a 7" width, assume you need at least 9" in the rear? haha :tongue:

What's wrong with it? Dan seems to think it's easier to make more power with it.Doubt you'll get a logical answer back.

It's a hybrid of the LS1 and LS6 -- only arguement you can really have is in stock form it has high compression for a V8 of its size and might not the best for boosting. I'm sure the LS2 would be (re)built to match Dan's needs so not like it would really matter what stock form is. Change the cam's, a little intake work, plus fuel work and you should be able to get 500hp out of it ;)

Then as you know with Erin's, the wingless vs. winged oil pans -- gotta have that baffled 'vette oil pan, holds a quart less oil but keeps it where it should be :2cents:

Tracy, I must say that the opposing concave pattern on the front of THE RENS rendition looks pretty intimidating. The Hankook Styling is cool IMO as long as white is absent and there's a plethora of colors to accent the swirls. Sweet idea for getting a design.

Ren! That is HOT SHIT!

Ok, so let me say this. I love the idea. I'm not so much looking for a paint scheme as I am looking for a vinyl design. Not the sponsor stuff, leave that out. I will add that. I mean I want to know the color the sponsor stickers will be so you can play with that, just don't worry about the placement. I'm looking for a vinyl design like the ones I posted...or like what my Evo had with the flames and the Hello Kitty. More like a THEME.

http://www.batlground.com/gallery/albums/evostrokerfinished/normal_newevo31.jpg

With the paint scheme, it needs to be simple because we crash a lot. So like the pin stripe is gorgeous, but if you think that I crash up my bumper every event almost...it's not so fun for my painter and it's expensive and more time consuming.

Then you if start adding anything other than sponsor decals it gets expensive and time consuming to print and lay vinyl every time, hence my basic paint scheme with virtually no graphics. But now that i know you do what some sort of detail i'll see what i can come up with.

Yea, I'm not really looking for vinyl on the bumper, besides sponsor vinyl. if the design carries over, it's ok. I have a vinyl plotter. The bumpers are black because it's cheaper than orange for one and it's all one color for two. I think I want to go all orange next year. I want a theme like the Japanese for my vinyl. Something cheezy like the D1 cars :D

yeah, IMO next to nob's altezza and imamura's a'pex FD, the team orange guys have some of the sweetest paint/vinyl jobs.

nice, i looked all over and couldn't find a good enough pic of them so she could see the detail on it. :goodjob:

im designing a graphic much like the team orange subie but im incorperating hello kitty instead of the bear in a "cute/cheezy" way...as for dan's car, im gonna use a different animal but same layout/look as tracys, that way there is a slight difference between them.

ill post up pics when im done.

I have heard that a few times. Is Forza on Xbox live? Brady said he bought Dan's car on Forza for $500k.

Doubt you'll get a logical answer back.

It's a hybrid of the LS1 and LS6 -- only arguement you can really have is in stock form it has Piston slap FTW! :2cents:

FTFY.

If someone does design something you all do use, what credit do they get?

I'm now thinking I want to paint my car white.

All of these cars have elements I like

Not sure what you mean entirely. Do you mean credit as in a sticker on the car?

adding D1 styling to your 240 won't make you a better drifter

I know! Hater tot! I like the style. I'm tired of my car being boring with just logos on it. I think my Evo had D1 styling and it wasn't even a drift car!!!!! It was cheezy and cool all at the same time. I want something different. I'm tired of being Dan's twin.

we got some reflective diamond plate vinyl into the shop the other day... that stuff's badass. you should get some and try to incorporate it into the design.

We have some of that, too. We also have the Cf stuff. That also looks pretty cool.




i'm sure he means like... "what do they get for their efforts if you use the design that they make..."

They get to see it on the car and get a sticker on the car if they have something they are trying to promote.

I see lots of people who are going to school for stuff like this or are just bored and like to do stuff like this post on IA. I figured someone would mess around with it in their free time and have fun with it. We also are designing one for a SEMA booth. So, it may be an opportunity if one goes good that we may hire the help for the SEMA car design.
