    When the time comes for a new paint job...

    I think I may have to go with something like this...

    From a distance...winter camo


    Up close...skulls!

    It does have a mean look.....
    But the seam across the hood, looks like peel and stick decals.
    The cost to have an artist paint all the panels, would be a question I would have.
    Sometimes I Wonder......

    The buggy is using a wrap. As you would think, they get damaged and replaced often. A great fitting wrap could be made for the VX which would be WAY cheaper than paint...plus you can peel it off and change it when needed. SBC has his VX wrapped with his company logo and it turned out very nicely.

    Like this?

    Cars designed by spreadsheets make sense. Cars designed by engineers make history.

    I think he was talking about the skull/camo design in shades if green.

    Since mine is already silver I was thinking of doing mine in Urban camo style.

    You know how much he paid for it?
