Hi AJ,

Surprised you havnt got your own thread up mate !?

Be nice to see your jimny and the stuff youve done, and going to do. This wrap idea sounds intriguing to say the least! I seen a piccy somewhere of someone who did this bonnet wrap, I will hav a look 4 it now.

But yeah..... sounds a great idea.

We'll it looks like all systems are go on the retro design! I'll have to get it booked in to get done.

Do you mean like the attached picture? I had a similar idea for the grello when I though that was the colour I was getting. Didn't think about the black bonnet though. That would look ace!

On the theme of desert camo, I have had several friends say that its an ideal colour wrapping in a proper camo..... Not a fan myself.

I have designed a retro 70's style livery that I have had a quote of £200 for the work. Just though Id run it past the forum to see if it's a "wow that looks cool and retro" or "What are you doing you complete plonker". Either way It would be nice to get your opinions.

Love it!
The sand colour is really suited to retro liveries.
I particularly like these one >

I've this in mind for my green beastie:

Yes. That's what I am looking at doing. I love the blue/white classic combo but think it really only works on the Japanese home market cars without the arches. I have a few things I want to get done first, undersealing for one.... but will then look at more cosmetic treats!!!
