Volvo Sweden will be offering the ability to create a real custom car by offering almost any color or appearance for the C30 model. For 20 000sek - about $3000, you can make your C30 look like a military vehicle or a zebra or even design it to look like the emblem of your favorite hockey team The good part is that you can actually remove the paint when you want to or when to sell the car. It's actually the same kind of coating that many of the taxis/company cars/police cars currently have.
Volvo will be the first car manufacturer that will be offering this to its regular customers.

It sure is interesting........

Would be totally cool if you could change it on the run, flick a switch and zap! new colour.

This has been around for years, there is a place on mt eden road that can do it....They have a mazda cronos (or similar) and it looks like its that camealeon (sp) paint but its adhesive overlay. (assuming its the same shit....i am speculating)

gay like tri spokes

SLOTEG · 7th June 2008, 07:37 PM

yep its just a vinyl overlay that goes over your entire car from head to toe. rocket scientists up in glenfield do it often, they were the company that stickered up our work cars and a few people had their entire vehicle covered in red vinyl and then company decals over that
not cheap tho

XPLOIT · 8th June 2008, 10:05 AM

These decals are available to the everyday customer of Volvo as a factory option.....

Thats what I find weird

Im sure a lot of third party places do it.

One of the black thunders (not sure which) is actually white.... with black vinyl overlay.
