Side Graphics

[AtlanticblueZX2]

anyone have side graphics on their ZX2? if so show some pics!!

[Larka]

you're going to get a lot of people posting old pics... most people end up taking them off... I'm pretty sure Wicked had some on his old ZX2. I used to have silver dragons down the side of mine, but I don't think I ever took pics... :lol: Your best bet is probably looking through the ZX2s on Cardomain.

[WickedZ]

Yeah I used to have some on my ride. The network im on now wont allow me to get to my pics. But you can view my old pics in the RICER section. I dont have the link but maybe someone else can post it for ya. I know im in there

[DexterZX2]

Here's a picture of my ZX2 with a custom graphic from 2004. It's off the car now, but I might decide to get it painted on if I repaint the car in the future. I got a lot of compliments back in the day with them.

oh my god dude, would you be offended if i copied you! i have fresh paint as of today and i want something to spice it up a bit. that is truly amazing, not big and gaudy but smaller and to the point ya kno

[DexterZX2]

That's my own custom design. I would appreciate it if you wouldn't copy it. I only posted a picture cause you asked to see graphics on a ZX2. Like I said, my graphic might be going back on the car again, in paint, so please don't use my design. If I were you I'd try coming up with something special for your ride. You'll get more satisfaction out of your own design.

[AtlanticblueZX2]

true true, i totally understand. i gotta admit you do have some good taste cuz i love that decal lol

[DexterZX2]

Thanks a lot.

[AtlanticblueZX2]

you wouldnt wanna maybe help me design somethin would ya?

[MindSpinZX2]

I like that Dexter. I did my graphics with a 6" x 20' roll of vinyl. Laid it on the car and cut them out. I'm thinking of painting mine on too.

whats up with the yellow paint on everything

[MindSpinZX2]

Its some advertisement thing in Columbus. I took some pics cause it was cool.

[AtlanticblueZX2]

sweet deal, ya need ta get the front bumper painted

[MindSpinZX2]

Yeah I know, bad. lol. Lots more needs painted on it, I'm debating whether to do it myself or shell out the money to pros. Like I said once the whole car's paint looks good I'll probably improve the stripe design a little, and get it painted on.

[AtlanticblueZX2]

yea, im goin to the bodyshop today at 1 to pick up my freshly painted front clip so i have no room to brag lol. then in a few weeks i will have to get my back right quarter panel repainted then my Z will finally be completed.

[Buster]

I had them on my previous car, but not the Z.


Looks good, Dexter.

Mindspin, I've told you before it looks great.



So no one has those graphics that look like someone sneezed (or performed another male body function) down the side of the car?


:D


I hope not...

[outkastrooster]

not on my z but on my probe

[AtlanticblueZX2]

i want graphics, not monsters taking over cars pics

[Larka]

Uhhh... any design down the side of the car is a "graphic"....

And you can always play with Google and photoshop if you want ideas...

Couple sites to look at ideas. If you wanted to order vinyl, Modern Image does all the ricer graphics on the Fast and the Furious cars. I wouldn't deal with Decalkits.com since they're involved with the scam that is carsponsorships.com...

I would get vinyl first- just because you can easily take it off if you don't like it.

[MindSpinZX2]

Alot of the Modern Image graphics are identical to the ones on Need for Speed Underground.

They probably provided them... Modern Image is the king of the ricer graphics. They did all the Fast and the Furious cars, so I wouldn't be surprised if they provided the ones for the "ricer" Need for Speed games.

[AtlanticblueZX2]

the needing graphics not monsters w.e was a joke

[Carbine]

vinyl is for your house not your car...LoL
I had a strip on my drivers side but I took it off. Now I have a Back wards "Move Over -->" on my windshield, It will be taken off sometime when I get bored of it.

[DexterZX2]

The crazy designs on the cars in the first fast and the furious cars were done by some other designer, not modern images. I forget the name of the designer, but I know the original designs were copyrighted. There have been a lot of knockoffs of those F&F graphics.

Or when the cops ask you to move over.

I know in PA, you can't have any opaque material on the windshield, including in the "safe" 4" or so where you can do a tint strip. I know, I was made to remove a solid banner once. :D

Same here. I had a red banner on my windshield and a York cop pulled me over for it. The stupid part is while he was writing out my 10 day warning card, two kids when flying by street racing. The cop didn't even call for back-up to get them. I was pissed. I ask the cop when he returned, "You're not going to do anything about the street racers"? He just gave me a weird look and told me to take the banner off within 10 days, and come back up to show him proof.

That's Modern Image's decal all over the hood of the Eclipse. They did the vast majority of the decals for the movies. The decal/paint on the pink S2K in the second one was done by someone else, but most of the decals on the other cars were done by Modern Image.

[Buster]

Wow, they even had crap on the roof.

[99fordzx2]

What about the vynal on the Wings West Z? Ive thought about copying that too but slightly different.

Hey man, to each his own :) That was an inspiration when I made my graphics, as well as some other random ricer graphics I've seen, lol

[OGreaTFuzzY1]

i have seen that same design on 30 cars -_- my friend just got it painted on his Saturn

~Fuzzy

[MindSpinZX2]

Yeah but they're all a little different, I just like mine b/c I laid it on as a solid vinyl stripe, drew it out and cut it out. Most of them you see on cars, came as a pre-cut design. Therefore it's mine and mine only. That design looks good on alot of cars, imo.

[AtlanticblueZX2]

^2nd that
