hi fellas, i am getting bored looking at the side of my truck with nothing but black paint and some stainless pieces. Anyone have any good links or vendors of good vinyl graphics for the side of the rig? not flames or things like that. maybe a sideview of a turbo with flames coming out the compressor outlet going down the side. Nothing too gaudy, just different than all that paint.

 

The best thing is to find a good sign shop and have something custom made. They can then print and cut it; apply it to the truck and put a clear over the whole area so it looks airbrushed on. I did it on my trailer about 5 years ago with my company logo and my Ferrari I had at the time.

 

that was quick thanks

 

No problem !

 

however i am not that artistic nor creative. my wife is, but it is hard to get her to concentrate on my darn truck. kinda why i wanted to look at examples and maybe pick from there, but I know the only way to get 1 of a kind stuff is to do it yourself.

 

If you find ANY picture online, you can have it printed and put on your truck.

 

good point. i should put my mug on the side. what a dumb looking truck that would be.

 

If you find a good sign shop they will be able to find some good ideas for you too look at too. I had to go through a couple of different ones before I found one that though like i did

u like camo??


just a thought??

later, dustin

 

thanks for the replies guys. lsufan, dont think camo would show up very well on my black truck. but yours looks sharp

 

Actually, dodgezilla04, I saw a 1500 gasser that was black the other day that had camo on the bottom, and it didnt look bad at all. Kinda had me thinking of doing it to my truck

 

We dont drive ricers

 

Do a web search for Ape Wraps. When I was at Indy this year the really outstanding trucks for the show n' shine had Ape Wraps.

 

It doesn't have to be ricer graphics.
I actually just talked to a guy on Monday about doing some vinyl on my truck. The place is called Auto Trim Design and I have used him for a Durango my wife used to drive and a couple times on the boat I use to have. It doesn't look as good as paint once you are close up, but it's about 20% of the price of paint and if you get tired of it you can just remove it. As soon as I sell my AFE in the classifieds I am going to get it done. I have an offer but it's kinda low. Hopefully I'll sell it over the weekend and see if they can squeeze me in late next week. I'll post pics when it's done.

 

I guess it depends on the design.
