I used to love the Martini rally cars like the intergrale.

What car is it for though?

Some good ones here. Just no Martini or Texaco style please. Rip off something that hasn't been ripped off to death.

What ideas you got Ade?? You must have some pics or something? Get em up and have a poll or something.

I weighed up a Marlboro Tomi Mak style before, but that's for a Red car.

Personally I see no point at all on livery on a car unless its actually promoting something you are connected with in the first place really.
So why not make your own up advertising your business or something?

Not planning on doing a direct rip off anyway.... mostly just wanting ideas for layout.
It's going to be based around the Chizfab logo so that rules out direct copies too.
I have always fancied a zebra striped track car, but it would be a different twist on the usual......

Going to get the crayons out soon and have a good scribble

Keep the ideas coming people, good to see all these cool liveries even if they aren't always appropriate to my car.
