Re: UK Wrangler #27

Over here they're in very short supply, especially nice modified low mileage ones. When I bought it it was a bit faded etc. I hadn't realised quite how badly until I polished it all up. I can't see myself having any trouble selling it TBH :)

Re: UK Wrangler #27

So, after thinking VERY hard about it, I've decided I'm going to enjoy this as it is for the summer, then get it sold (as it should be worth very strong money over here) so I can buy a YJ and build a "proper" replica. Which is the way I always wanted to go with it to be fair.

Re: UK Wrangler #27-Raptor Team

Thanks man. Weapon lxxxi has done me an awesome photoshop of it with red wheels etc, so I'm going to plastidip them to see what they look like in a couple of weeks, and if it suits then they'll get powdercoated :)

Re: UK Wrangler #27-Raptor Team-DOOR DECALS ON

So, today we fitted the door decals, and removed the ones from the hood and wings. Looks so much better, and I know it's early days and some people aren't a fan as it's black, but I think it's starting to take shape. When my JP plate arrives I'll rip the front plate off, which will tidy up the front...

Re: UK Wrangler #27-Raptor Team

Thanks :) . I haven't really done anything yet, and it'll be a gradual process, but I'm looking forward to it. I know it's not exactly screen accurate, but I'm trying to make it look like it would have been used if the park were real, if that makes sense.

Re: UK Wrangler #27-Raptor Team

I picked up the door decals today. Really impressed with them. The company that did them is literally a mile down the road from my old man, and it turns out the guy loves JP, so double bonus. They've come out really well, and are printed rather than layered. They're going on tomorrow, along with the...

Re: UK Wrangler #27-Raptor Team

First proper bit ordered today;the front plate from Celebrity Machines. The rear will have an InGen one, which I'll velcro over the standard one for shows/events. I'm ordering a set of US sized plates for it, to make that a bit easier.

Re: UK Wrangler #27-Raptor Team

Thanks :-) . Yeah I absolutely love it with the roof off, it's just a shame I've got full size doors. Half size seem to be crazy expensive for these!

I hadn't thought about red, I might have to photoshop that and have a look, thanks for the idea :-(
