The Lotus Grand Tourers

so thinking about doing this:



good idea/bad idea?

will hide a nice crack in the front nose just behind the bumper...
Whats the consensus on stripes?

Oz.

I still like the Eclat Sprint offset style stripe, but was outvoted on that one when I suggested doing it to my car!


That mock-up of yours doesn't look altogether hideous, though I wouldn't carry it on below the bumper myself.

Doesn't float my boat, but then again if it does yours & keeps you happy good for you!

I think it looks good. Can you knock out a rear view. You seem to be very good with photoshop!!

I like it, perhaps not as much as if the base colour was yellow as opposed to white, but I guess if you're starting with a white car that's how it goes.
But it's your car and it must suit your taste as long as you plan to keep it for a while. If you were planning to sell in a short while then advice is leave it standard as every styling limits the audience to whom the car appeals.

Hi Oz

When I was at the Autosport show this year there was a company covering a Lambo in plastic!! - the whole car! Until you got really close it looked like paint. You could do your stipes in plastic film and remove it if you didn't like it/got fed-up with it! Their website is fenngraphics.co.uk Might be worth a look.

I like it. I echo Angus' comment about staying above the bumper line, but it looks neat and distinctive - they'll definitely recognise you in their rearview mirror as you close on them!

Hi, love the idea, so much so I did it to mine. http://s849.photobucket.com/albums/ab53/oldmxr/

looks really good, but i think i would have continued it down the bumpers... looks like an Excel Sports Racer

will do when i have time, photoshops just one of my digital skills

Yes it probably would look better all the way, Wasn't sure when i hadit done. The rear bumper has to be redone as it was done seperately and didn't quite line up!!!

I prefer all the way down the bumpers.

I like it, but would go for assymetrical and matt black
