So this is an idea I've had dating back to a few years ago when I was shopping around for Supra's. I had planned on doing it to the Targa top, but the Supra I ended up with (Which I was totally in love with) ended up not having one. Then I got the 7 and I immediately thought of my idea again. This Saturday (the 29) my awesome idea came to be reality! I've never seen this done before and I'm really happy with it!

Prepping the roof (Cleaning, Sanding off old rust, Cleaning, Polishing, Cleaning again...):


What she looked like:


All clean and ready to start!


Begin:


Whoops! Back up... Begin Again!


Popping air bubbles...


Smoothing it out...


The Finished Product!


I think it's pretty dope...




The graphic is printed on an outdoor vinyl. It's as much an experiment for my dad as it is an awesome decal for my car. I'm sure you're all familiar with the idea of vinyl wrapping a car, every downtown bus has one, and recently State Farm has started wrapping a few cars. My dad works out of the house as a large format digital printer, and recently started entertaining the idea of doing a few vehicle wraps (mainly for his 86 GTI which is in dire need of a paintjob... But why paint when you can wrap!!). This isn't the official stuff that you're SUPPOSED to use, but it should work well and we'll see how it holds up.

I don't have any full shots of the car yet, cause it started raining about two hours later and hasn't stopped yet, two days later... I'll get some as soon as I can...

I'm extremely proud of the way it turned out... What do you guys think?

 

I like it. add that with the other guy who made the domokun hood. hella sick

 

 

Dude that domokun hood was hella tite. U should be ashamed.

Lol but anyways to the OP. I dono if i like it... u need a full car shot with the roof open!

 

Of what? I LOVED that hood!

As I said, I'm waiting for a day without rain... Welcome Spring I guess...

 

i dont know if i like it either, kinda right there with my friend with the rising sun decal on his car........
and that domokun hood is soooo sick, thinking about doing to my own. hell, i own a domokun plushy!

peace

 

That's actually pretty neat!

 

More pics, As requested:

 

only Caucasian do that for some reason.
WWII vets would have a heart attack seein you drive that lmao


how much did the decal cost?

 

^^haha they would flip a sh*t.....

But im iffy on the thing. I think you need some more red/jap logos on the car. Then it would be BA.

 

Already had one see it and laugh at me... lol...

The decal didn't cost me anything, My dad printed it off for me which I explained in my first post...

Yeah I was kinda thinking the same thing but I don't wanna go overboard... I was thinking maybe more of the same on the mirrors? What do you think I should do?

 

shouldve done the hood.

 

the hood is even sicker goes well with the red car

 

freak, that hood is waay better than the sunroof. (sunroof is cool though)
that's a good looking rx7

 

Magus: I have that same plush. I want to hand it somewhere in my interior...

 

Thought about it but it just doesn't go. There's no definite line where the sun's rays should end you know? At least with the sunroof it's obvious that the ray's would stop at the huge black line (Weatherstripping)
