Tesla Roadster Wrap

[Designer Wraps]

It's been a LONG time since I've posted any of our work, but here's one of our most recent wraps. It's a neat little car - Tesla Roadster 100% Electric (no fuel at all).

There's some before pics on our FB page here https://www.facebook.com/designerwraps.

Looks awesome!!

(Were the photos taken with a tilt-shift lens?)

Thanks cg. I'm not sure what lens was used. My buddy is a professional photographer, so he takes the nice shots for me.

Looks awesome! But why?

But why?

Cuz that's what they wanted. They've opened up a new retail store in Washing, D.C. ... so that design makes sense.

There are just some cars...that shouldn't be wrapped. And that's one of them. A Tesla Roadster is a beautiful car, and now looks like a clown car.

That said it looks like you executed the wrap very well. I guess I'm more upset with the customer bringing you such a job. So props on the job, but ugh....hate seeing that done to the poor Tesla.

Nice work, looks like lots of hideous compound curves, but what would possess a human being to want to ride around in something that looks like that?

No fuel my ass. Unless the electricity upon which the thing operates is created on board, perhaps chemically, there's fuel involved. Merely because the owner/operator doesn't have to belly up to a gas pump does not mean that no hydrocarbons were burned in order to generate the electricity needed for this thing to run. A rather inefficient conversion by the way.

Moreover, how many joules did it take to manufacture the thing vice how many do you figure it will conserve vice more traditional transportation over whatever its life might be?

Be at rest Flame ... the wrap is only staying on for a couple of days ;-) ... was for the promo only.

You read into things too much you crazy coot. He was saying it runs on electricity, plain and simple. Wasn't starting a discussion on how this fine specimen of a car will eliminate the worlds consumption of fossil fuels and none were used in the production of the vehicle. Simply said it ran on electricity!!!!

Awwww good Did you test drive that thing? If I could find one around here I'd love to try it out. Supposed to be hideously quick without hardly making a sound.

Austin Powers will be driving it to the event, I'm guessing?

@Flame - it's Fast!

Wow, cheers on a nice job man, that's way out of my league.

Nice Job. What did you use for vinyl? If it's only for a few days did you laminate it?

 

[Custom_Grafx]

dam that looks hot! nice job on lining it up!

Well since you said for only a few days that changes everything I was going to say.
Even though I like the basic design and what the image is also good to do for a promo.
What I think is that to little effort was put into the design for having full color print capability but for few days only then no big deal... great looking wrap on a cool car.

How come some of the red stripes are missing on the roof view? Two stripes start on the side but don't make it to the trunk. Just a question, not a critique.

Who cares if you guys like the design or not. We work for our customers in this business. This is an example of awesome execution! I assume it's a seamless install. I'm curious to know how you paneled it. Your stars and stripes flow almostly flawlessly from one side of the car to the other. For those who don't wrap vehicles, that takes some planning. In my opinion, there's nothing worse than a wrap where the design doesn't transition well from the hood to the fenders or the sides to the back of the vehicle. This is phenomenal work.
