No problem.

Here's a sneak preview for Camaro5.com of my upcoming design for 2018. Inspired by the 1980-81 Z/28 stripes. I've managed to secure a few sponsorship deals this year so need to display some supplier stickers..

Racing number is going to change from #29 to my lucky #51 this year.

Let me know what you think!

Still snowing here so stuck in the garage. Working on the new livery so I don't get bored.

Stripes and hash marks are done, the last picture is showing the application of 3M knifeless tape for creating the curved sections in my design.

Automotive wrapping vinyl is from Hexis. Most of the logos and other stickers are here but I'm still waiting on clear wrap on the front bumper.

More progress today. Quite time consuming but going to be worth it in the end!

Curves on the rear quarters echo those found on the 1980-81 Z28 front corners....

More stickers on. .. Quite surreal seeing the ideas from Forza replicated in real life.

1st trackday of 2018 booked for the 3rd May @ Rockingham Motor Speedway! Can not wait to get it back on a racetrack!

Thumbs up

Love the retro stripes! Good luck in the upcoming season. Keep the shiny side up as I will try to do myself.

Detail shots...

I wrapped the rear diffuser in 3M Carbon film - not a perfect job as I rushed to get it on before the Bicester Sunday Scramble show at the weekend but pretty pleased with it. It only cost me about £20 in vinyl so will redo it at some point later in the year when I can spend longer getting it neater! For now it will do a good job protecting the diffuser from stone chips on track. Now I have a good idea what carbon looks like on the back end I'm determined to fit the proper Anderson Composites carbon rear diffuser one day...

Also some detail shots of the 3D printed front brake duct mesh I designed. Let me know what you think! 🙂
