I’m thinking I’d like to pimp up my Trafic a wee bit – mostly to make it look less like a commercial vehicle. Has anyone bought and applied some stripes or other graphics – and how did you get on?

Before and after pics appreciated.

Some ideas…

I had some no fear eyes and stripes which I got off eBay.
Getting them on without having lots of bubbles takes patience.
😳

I’m not sure I’d bother unless the van was white TBH

Edit: Darcy, can you add an onion and a rainbow?

Before

After

Nope. Still not “camp” enough 😉

For geoffj…

If you like, I can nip over tomorrow and spraypaint a cock and balls on it?

I’d offer to do DD’s tiger and that but I know my limits.

Sorted something for you Northwind…

That’s your sistine chapel roof, right there.

Oooh! Its a close call between the ‘Free Candy’ and the Lichtenstein Pop Art for me 🙂

Whenever I see a van with assorted Hope/Maxxix/Fox/RockShox/661 stickers on, I always think they may as well read ‘Several thousand pounds worth of mountain bike inside’.

I’d keep it very subtle if I were you.

This for me. Plus, parking up to sleep in random towns throughout europe would have been a lot harder had my Peugeot looked like a camper I’m sure.

Go the whole hog 🙂

Agree with the keeping it subtle idea, how about just a bit of body work?

aarrghhh my eyes;

Wwaswas, that purple van in black will be batmobile-tastic.

Now that I like, there is a bloke selling some boots in the classifieds that would go with that purple van a treat. 🙂

Linky to the boots on the classifieds?

Fantastic.

If in doubt.

😆

Inspired by Lichtenstein…

And then this on the other side

With this on the back, to warn potential thieves

It should go without saying that it needs a confederate flag on the roof

My mate has a vinyl cutter, we did some “cool” graphics for my brothers car when he left if with me while he was away. People double take and comment as it is all quite subtle. The car – a lilac/purple Daihatsu Charade (it was my aunts).
