   Most of the art stores only seem to do A4 sized sheets, or a few up to 1 m width. Need bigger!!!

   Just an idea I have. Not for the Saxo though lol.
   Just pricing up whether vinyl is cheaper than painting though

   Vinyl will be cheaper if it's on a car due to the prep work involved in spraying.

   Not sure I want this to be permanant though. Might want to remove it if the car its going on was ever sold.
   
   Theres a few on here with vinylled roofs, so you must be able to buy large sheets from somewhere lol

   Minimal prep work required, plus it would be me/my mate doing the spraying so also minimal cost, other than materials

    www.write-on-signs.com thats my works site im sure we could do you some black vynal and post it off best if you email the boss through the site though mate. the biggest rolls of vynal you get is 1220 so youd be best asking for a 1220x2000 sheet. not sure how much it would be wouldnt imagine itd be much.
