there vinyl, what we did was we made h2 body templates to where it matches up to any body curve, door an hood openings and
door handles and saved on the computer. what we are doing now is jus coming up with different designs and templates for various diecast. right now we can basically put any design on the templates we made for the h2's, print it out and lay em on and peel em of. the printer dose all the cutting were its needed, its very acurate. we are doing more templates for various diecast which we plan to start selling as graphic kits, could even be with your logos, anything.
the lift you see here is jus one of the ways i lift my diecast. i have 3 other ways i build that are much more detailed an functional. this is from another truck thats just hacked off an mounted here. it's pretty common

...ah...ok, so you have a vinyl cutter... i've become pretty good friends with a local shop by me that did my tint and various vinyl work to my Grand Am... he's got numerous programs that have vehicle templates so that he can make graphics for any particular car
