Some of you might have read my last post (my struggle) thanks for the kind comments. About half way through the build I'd had an idea to use it to promote my business. We build exhibitions stands and I thought it would look good if we could brand it up so that it looked like a cross between a works van and a show winning scooter. Anyway here's some shots of the mock ups and final results. We're off to Earls Court now so I'll get some more of when its on site
I hope i haven't ruined it.....

Playing around with some ideas (the missus said it looked hidious,,,,, she's going to have to go)

Fresh from the printers, I sprayed the panels blue, the rest is self adhesive vinyls applied (its not a full wrap as you can still see the paint in the background)

shame about the flat tyre

Lovely job. Something on the front might even it out a tad.
I used to have magnetic stickers on my scoot saying "scooters wanted". It worked, I pulled in a few scoots because of it, but , underneath the magnets, it caused the paint to rust.
Is there any problems with rust under the vinyl graphics?
That's not going anywhere...

Thanks,
Originally I was going to put something on the front, I agree that it probably needs something, however I thought that if I just stick to the side panels, I can always get a spare set, spray them white and then I can ride it as a normal scooter aswell, when she's not working
No problem with rust as yet, but they've only been on a few days, besides I dont take her out in the rain, she doesn't like it
Heres some photos of her earning her keep
