    VSD graphics

    I'm looking to reproduce the VSD graphics for my livery but I'm struggling to find a decent source. Any ideas?

    Try CJ. He can draw and produce the graphics files from photos but it'll depend how busy he is with his other projects. If any graphics go on the front Louvre, they won't stay stuck down too well so you may have to paint.

    Ill echo the bit about the louver. Although Sando did an excellent job of the big TOTAL sticker on my bonnet, and the time I spent with a heat gun, due to the Sun or the heat coming from the rad it is starting to lift. So I will paint it on soon.

    P.S.

    Whats vsd and is it catching.

    its not the tracing or producing graphic files, that bits relatively easy with the right tools, its the fact its a gradient of colour on the VSD so it needs printing or better painting, unless you cut some multi-coloured vinyl. I still don't recommend using Vinyl for anything on the Louvers. You have to use thinnest vinyl to get in all the contours and as Mel found it will always shrink back eventually if you heat it again. I'm sure there are people even on eBay that will print up some multi-coloured letters.

    You can print on vinyl now, so colour gradients should not be a problem.
    Supposed to be Ok for vehicle graphics too but not had any experience of that so far.

    Re: VSD graphics

    The VSD stickers have arrived but I now have a dilemma. I assumed they would be produced on a white oblong background as per the orginals but instead they've been cut out. No problem for the louvre as it's white. It's the door stickers..... I actually think they'll look nicer without the background. Not orginal but mine's a rep anyway. Any thoughts?

    I can cut you some white backgrounds to stick them onto if you want.
    stick some paper on with masking tape and see if you prefer with or without the background.

    you got the hot starting sorted yet?

    The VSD might get a bit lost against the blue, but would look less "stuck on". Go with what you like. I missed off the orange and yellow the original Publimmo scheme had on the wheel arches. And got the wrong wheel colour!
