Default Opinions on graphics layout *PICS*

Got my vinyl graphics in yesterday and probably tomorrow will have time to get them on the XB. Still deciding on the placement of the smaller graphics though. Obviously the larger graphic will be where it is in the pics. But I have 2 pairs of the smaller graphics and am deciding on where to put them, to use both pairs or use them at all.

The photos are just rough photoshops and the graphics are just slightly smaller in actual size. For example, the smaller rear graphic in pic #2 will not need to be cut because it fits between the tailight and where the rear door opens. The larger graphic is also a few inches shorter as well.

I like the layouts in Pic 2 the best. I think the main graphic needs at least one accent graphic to complete the ripped look and give it a "faster" look also. Like it was ripped while driving quickly. The bottom accent should probably be placed forward a little more.

Any thoughts regarding the layout are welcomed. The graphics look awesome and the low res photoshop doesn't do them justice. In the black areas is the green flowing text from the Matrix movies. Really looks wild and looks very convincing that the car is shredded. I printed out a color pic here at work and a lady saw it on the printer and asked if the car was in an accident.

Re-read the first sentence of the message - it's vinyl and I *have* the graphics now.

I like #2 the best. I think I would go with just the one small one, sort of in line with the slight up-cut of the larger one. Like it jumped out and cut back in a bit. Very unique. My wife is a big Matrix fan, so she may wish we had your graphic rather than the one we have. Enjoy the mods, and make it uniquely yours.

#1 is awesome....the smaller ones seem to detract from the big one in #2. Have you tried taking one of the smaller ones to the front fender?

looking at getting vinyl myself. It is hard to pick one that is just right. I would start with #1 and live with it a few days. you can always add the others later if you decide to.

I did see those on the net. They are pretty cool.

#2, from the above choices but I would center the rear one more between the wheelwell and the glass (move it down a bit and to the back.
I would also probably try just one of the small ones on the front fenderwell above the large one,
