I'm fixing my car myself on a budget, and I don't want to pay a few hundred dollars to have my trunk lid and rear plate panel repainted. I'm almost done getting the two parts completely smooth and ready for primer, and once I shoot primer over the repaired areas I plan to attempt to use my shoot some close-matching yellow paint and some clear onto the damaged areas and try to blend the colors somewhat.
I can already tell though that it's not gonna be pretty. It'll be better than being damaged though, and better than spending loads of money on a car that's already keyed all over and such. The other night though, I had an idea to use some sort of vinyl graphics to cover up the repainted area on the rear. The soon-to-be-repainted area is highlighted below. I'm trying to think of what I could put there to cover up the repainted area. It's going to have to be a monochrome design, because I'm going to go with one color of vinyl. Graphics would be cool, and/or so would text. Maybe something having to do with 6GC.net or Twin Cam 20(like my valve cover) or TRD or something...I dunno...basically I'm open to pretty much anything. So if you have ideas I'd love to hear them. Even better though would be if you could photoshop them onto my car. Below is the original pic you could use, or I can give you a different one. Thanks! Edit: I already shaved the key hole on the license plate panel, and I could shave the Toyota logo on the trunk lid if needed. I'm open to pretty much anything...maybe I could even relocate the plate below and make the entire license plate panel flat.
