A NEW type of competition! Details are posted here.
Custom Car Skins® Competitions will become an avenue for Local Motors customers to host competitions on the design of their LM vehicle exterior. If you didn't know, all Local Motors vehicles are vinyl wrapped instead of painted because this process is more sustainable, cost effective, and customizable. Such a process also lends itself really nicely to Custom Car Skins®.
The first Custom Car Skins® competition is a challenge to design the skin for Local Motors' CEO Jay Rogers' 1971 Mercedes 280SL. Why are we doing a custom car skin for a non-Local Motors vehicle? We are testing out the process of the design competition as well as the vinyl wrapping so it will be fine-tuned when we present it to customers on their Rally Fighter. Also, the 280SL is a bangin' classic with great curves and it will serve as a nice showpiece for Local Motors and Custom Car Skins®.
