LUIGI Posted January 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 looks sweet! but where you get all the stickers? like all those bright coloured ones if you get me?yeah got the stickers from a book called sticker bomb see it on ebay they are only paper stickers not vinyl so if you want to use them then you need to coat it in pva glue one or two thin layers just to secure it and then a few layers of clear coat laquer to keep it waterproof.and yeah i was trying to work out where that place was haha it said that it had been imported on the tax book.and for cutting out the inserts i am going to leave as is for now, i kinda like the way it looks like a cirlce until close and you can see the vw part and its all raised and stuff but might get colour coded vinyl for inserts if i am going to do that.

casey93 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 How do you get it to fit so well to the badge, do you use a heat gun ?mine keeps failing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LewB Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 something like this, minus the stripes and your onto a winner.and yes €250 is ridiculously expensive for just spraying the bonnet. Are they actually painted on, or stickers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris c Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 might look better for the time being if the bonnet was black looking good tho dude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BEP51 Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 (edited) get the bonnet done in an off white. Then get a Luigi "L" like this:except have it made up in a green to match the rest of the car's paint and stick it across the bonnet, maybe at a slightly off angle.Edit:Done a shop 4 u! rather enjoyed doing it actually.
