Challenge Livery Help Needed ! (maybe some Photo Shop help too?)

 I also think the turquoise of the door should go on the entire car. Spray cans are cheap and easy....

I'm kinda feeling & thinking this way too, but Gariation is concerned that it'll be more difficult to come back later on and do a proper paint job if we go that route, he may be right.  For this year, we have the budget room for a rattle can paint job, but the prep time would need to be near zero.   Because Challenge.

I mean I'm kinda feeling the turquoise. I was under it on the lift today and there is quite a bit of bare metal really. Would help show more of the imperfections for mud later...

In reply to Indy - Guy :

Since the goal is nice paint later, I suggest a small bit of vinyl wrap for the event and remove shortly after the event.  

 If using vinyl, look up "knifeless tape". This will allow for applying vinyl which follows the contour of the body lines.  

Speaking of painting later, you might want to consider mounting your GRM supplied stickers to sheet magnet.  That will keep you from any sticker residue after the event.  It will also add longevity to your event graphics allowing you to keep them out of the elements if you want to reapply them again in the future.  

Sheet magnet

In years past I used sheet magnet but I kept the product out of the budget under my rationalization that it gave me no competitive advantage for the event.  It's only purpose was my personal gain after the event.  

Random sample video on knifeless tape usage.  This tape is also a tool so budget exempt. 

The year I used vinyl, my budget was tight.  I measured my waste vinyl and I backed those square inches out so what I budgeted was only the amount of vinyl that actually went down the dragstrip.

DO NOT USE RATTLE CAN OR RUSTOLEUM if the goal is real paint on those areas later. It all has to come back off, as it WILL react over time with automotive grade products. It may not do it immediately, but it definitely will over time. 

Ask me how I know.....

Yea this is going to be primarily a challenge/autocross/race car. So we need to keep that in mind.

Thanks for your help everyone.  I think the team has come to a concensus:

This for the side:

And this for the hood:

And Maybe this for the trunk area:

Then after the Challenge, we can discuss an actual paint job.
