78_7kRolla Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 She came up heaps better with a coat of polish. Do you have any idea what size and offset your wheels are? Make sure to put up some snaps of the 'el cheapo' panda styling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KEhendo Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 looking good! this will be awesome when you chuck on the guard mirrors. what kind of fender mirrors will you be running? kp61 style or more chrome like the ones on the te72 gt on the first page?

silverra23 Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 what are you using to apply the vinyl? you can get 3m vinyl applicators which do a really good job also sometimes doesnt hurt to put a fine mist of soapy water on the surface you are applying to first, so that you can make mistakes and work the air bubbles and wrinkles out. also means you can slide the vinyl around a little to get it into position i used to do a fair bit of signage application on race cars and it takes a bit of practice but you will get the hang of it - there were plenty of times the race cars went out with wrinkles or stickers at slightly odd angles. at 200km/h no one could tell - but may be different on a ke :lolcry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
