Mini provided three vehicles: the Mini Clubman, Mini Cabrio and the new Mini Diesel.

They also thanked Decently Exposed for the design of the vehicle which we would love to accept but we didn’t come up with the design, we’ll take the wrap though for the print and application of the Uber Star Car AutoSkin. Thanks MINI!

Suzuki Swift Personal-ity

Jack built it. He came up with his own (zebra) design and he installed it. We sent him samples of plain grey colours we had in stock and he chose one. We forme cut his artwork and delivered it to him in Epping Sydney and this is the result. Probably wouldn’t recommend for full AutoSkins but hey a bit of decal application on a little Suzuki Swift is not beyond a layman. We supplied an applicator (not a person, but a little tool that helps apply decals) and a few tips and Jack did the rest. The end results speak for themselves. Love the bit of detail around the petrol cover.

Dali Van - from the archives

Sounds like we’ve been around for years and we have sort of, you could say the best part of two decades, but hardly a century which the term “archival” kinda suggests.  A client came in on Tuesday and he has a similar product so we searched the archives and found the Dali van to give him a look see. He liked it because it was pretty simple but packed a punch with its big loud speaker graphic and red logo placement … He liked the van colour too … It helps to have a good base vehicle colour if you are not considering a full wrap.

Three things about Dali:

1. There’s a kid at school who goes by the same name.  He hangs a bit with one of our boys.
