A couple of weeks ago i decided i didnt like having the word 'Sprite' in pink and green on the side of my car, i dont know why, i just didnt :)
So armed with my moms hair dryer and my nails i decided to get them off, this worked really well, i think the heat from the hair dryer melts the glue or so im told.
Anyways....

I now want some new decals on the side of my mini, something different, has anyone got any ideas what i should have put on the side? or where i can get some custom made decals done?


Heres a pic of my mini, just so u know what it looks like:
Me Car :)

wow your car looks real clean. not too partial to the wheels though. as for the side decals go for something original...maybe your cars name in cool font?

Thats a real tidy car... at the mini show a few cars had an effect which looked like the paint was being pulled away with a union jack underneath, obviously they were just stickers, but only cost somet like a tenner and looked very cool :cool: :)

cool nick,

jim are you thinking of keepin the car immaculate as it is?

because since you hava an italiam job badge on your bonnet maybe you ould dress the car up in the style of one of the cars in the film, with the 3 spot lights on the grille, ask mark how to place the one thats high on the grille, and perhaps some black stripes?

just a thought.

Cheers for all the comments guys :)

I will have to see if i can find somewhere that does some customised decals or something :)
I have to say i like the sound of those stickers Brawlyrox, do you know anywhere that sells them online?

That pics quite old, the car has more chrome on it now, and im thinking of the spot lights too :)
And dont worry the wheels will be going when i get some more money :)

well the theory around here, seems to be the bigger the decals the faster your car goes.

I'd go with something simple if you so desire. I like your car the way it is. Looks really clean.
