Subtle or insane?

With owning my own vinyl graphics and import business's, I have two choices.

To leave the car as it is, subtle (if u can even call it that as standard, lol) with a few small web address's etc here and there advertising the business names, or I can go insane, drift stylee with some nice gold and silver chrome graphics which will be in your face (looking to maybe do something along the lines of the bn sports demo cars etc). The car will be used mainly as a show car for this year, but it may get the odd drift outing here and there at the local track (teesside) when spare money arises.

So, what do you think I should do? Im thinking drift graphics but i dont want to spoil the car as its had amazing amounts of interest already

Subtle



or insane





Cheers folks

Neil

My vote goes for - sod the graphics, spend it on tyres and get your arse 45 mins down the road to the best drift track in the UK.

P.S. your car is well smart, I'd go with insane, but it would also look nice with a more subtle approach. Really developing a soft spot for FCs...

oooh, well seing as you have the facility etc, then I'd go INSANE. With the provision you can just loose them if it's crap / not to your liking!!

Lol, Im on my 3rd set of graphics for the impreza, and generally do them at stupid o'clock in the morning the night before a show, lol

Ive already been down to teesside a few times to watch, will be there on sat and will try a catch beezy if he's there, but i went to driftskool down there in jan which was organised by Niall, mitto and dan and took part and got hooked, so hopefully the car will be there for a few practices this year

front bumper is away getting fixed and shud have that and my allow which is being sorted back next week ready to go on

if you drift it, do drift graphix, if you feel you must, if not, why would you need to

at the end of the day, its your choice

I think it looks nicer without


But, if your using it as a marketing tool, then its perfect to show off what you can do.

If its a proper used drift car, or to get the business name noticed then go insane IMO, otherwise keep it nice and classy.

yeah basically advertising/marketing is the key really, but ideally the car will be drifted this year

just chuck another one in so u can see what the red looks like. Yellow goes well with it quite well

Go with the graphic then. If it wasnt a business tool id say leave it as is and buy some spacers

red satin graphics might work well, subtle and lairy at the same time.
