Rearranged the office.

I don’t know if its just me or designers in general, but I have a never ending urge for a change of scenery. And its since the office has looked the same since we moved in last year, I felt a change was due. Truth be told, I rearranged it a couple of weeks ago …

Dinosaurs museum with Lily

Took Lily to the Dinosaur Expo at the Columbia museum this past weekend. The expo was kinda small but it was still a lot of fun. The Pterodactyl with babies was her favorite.

AE86 Vinyl Wrap: Part 2

Posted 23 Sep 2008 in The Machine

The next phase in the AE86 vinyl wrap came in the region of the driver side passenger. I was also able to tackle half of the roof. More info and pics after the jump….

I have to admit, the driver side fender looks like hell. I thought that partiuclar panel was going to be one of the easiest but turned out to be very challenging. Perhaps it was my lack of vinyl skill or the fact that I didn’t have a heat gun or hair dryer to stretch the vinyl. Regardless…. I don’t like it, but Im not going to redo it. It is a track car after all.  Very few people will be looking at it up close.  On the other hand…. I have access to a hair dryer now, so the passenger fender (and everything else) should be a lot easier (*fingers crossed*).

To be honest, I almost through in the towel on this. I keep asking myself why I don’t just take it up to MAACO and get one of their $200 paint jobs. It would be a hell of lot easier, less frustrating, but would cost twice as much as the vinyl wrap. At this point, Im not sure if Im going to continue to wrap it. I might do the driver door and see where Im at from there. Anyway… here’s some pics of the fender and hood.
