google $50 paint job.

There is also a good article from the VW T25 lot about using rustoleum to roller it.

I was going to roller the VX, but will be using vinyl wrap now :)

Thought vinyl wrap was rather expensive.

Thought vinyl wrap was rather expensive.

only if you a) pay a 'pro' (amature with experience of one or two cars) and b.) use fecking expensive materials when you dont need to


I shall be DIY'ing it and using slightly pikeyer materials.
Wrapping a nova would be a piece of piss to do :) I might have to do a couple of pannels on the old shed to prove it lol
