Gumball Rally Volvo 340 - New Pics / Few stickers

Post by Sam340 » 14 Aug 2006 01:57 pm

Spent a bit of time on Sunday applying the first batch of stickers to our themed vehicle for the Student Gumball Rally!

There are a few more to come including batman logos and our rally numbers....

Painted the outside edge of the grille as well!

Have tried to keep it looking not too ridiculous!
What you think so far!

Love it! Wonder why Volvo never thought to put the 'Turbo' badge on the back sm14

Caught myself checking your location as there's a little village near me called Gotham. What a twit! It's not far from J24 of the M1 and is pronounced 'goat-em'. Better take the pills and have a lie down...

Good work indeed. That looks very mean indeed, just painting the surround on the grille makes a huge difference, and being black no need for colour coded bumpers, the standard 340 ones look fine, making it look very GLT like. Good luck with it all.
