Ah but remember we're talking insurance companies - any excuse not to pay. Grey and black factory colours are OK as they're standard - not much they can do about those. But camo would be a modification (cringe), so would automatically make any accident your fault.

A quick codge up with MS Paint - needs some refinement...

Thanks Taz... I like the colour / black pack, possibly with red C pillars, black wheels, grille & lettering as per the DS black pack.

Aintree Green with black pack is a bit marmite. I like it but can see how some might not

I'm going to start charging ...

The first image is actually nicer after all. Not sure I'll do either though - the car, as Stuart says, looks best just as it is.

I feel it dates the car to be honest! Here is one that has been professionally wrapped

I don't like them, best left as they are, unless they're black, then they need a colour

Seen many cars wrapped and not one has been 100% perfect you can normally tell around the the corners of a bumper or grill where you will see a slight imperfection somewhere. Personally I don't see the fascination in have a wrapped black roof and lower car body colour.

Agree that they dont look too good, but can you do those mock ups again, but this time keep the roof body coloured.
 FL2 now gone and have a couple of items left for sale:-

Brodit active iPhone holder + Brodit dash clip,
Bluetooth Music Streaming Module.

A bit like the MKIII Cortina days - a vinyl roof, (usually black and weathering to a torn greyish mess but other colours were available), was a must have. These fads come and go like all things.

I generally don't like the black pack but was taken with how well the red seemed to work with it on a DS.

O God!!
First mock up was too far let alone the next two
Saying that Black Grill Spars it is for me!
Marmite Green it is then!!
Couldn't possibly mock up a front view Aintree Green with Black Grill Spars for me Taz????
