Default Stripes for XR6

I was thinking of getting stripes on my XR6.

Wondering how much people paid to get this done!!

Wouldn't cost ya much mate. Go to a sign writing place and they can make them and put them on for ya in a day and cost ya max about 150. You can make them up to how you like them aswell. I got a mate who might be able to do em. You in Melbourne?

Nah on the Mid North Coast of NSW.

There is a signwriter that I know did a XR8, I might go see him.

My BF XR6 is Bionic, any ideas on a colour scheme.

Cheers

Maybe a nice dark red or something. Same colour as the turbo badge. What colour interior have you got is it the matching clouor to the bionic or the grey. If the grey maybe that colour to tie it in nicely.

Signwriters will generally have 100's of different colours to choose from and they'll let you hold a sample up to your car.

And if you don't like it after a while you can rip it off and get a new colour.

XR is N/A unfortunately.

Interior is grey, but I have tinted the windows black.

I was thinking grey but want something different.

I'm just thinking not many options with the black windows.

Hey mate,

I got mine done for $150.
For a Bionic car the FPV stripe options were, White, Black and Orange. Out of the three I'd definately say that White looks the best!

Just a tip I learnt from my sticker friend who decks out the WA cop cars...
When ever you apply your own stickers of any type, spray the area with vinigar first so you can move the sticker around untill its perfectly positioned then leave it to set.
