The Ford Flex begins its transformation



Today we began the process of applying graphics to the Ford Flex. Designed by our own @matthunsberger, these are the sweetest Plaid vehicle graphics ever.

The process is slow and tedious, and requires a great deal of talent from the installation company. Most people just drop their car off and pick it up the next day, but we hung around to document the process. Hanging with our installer Russ was pretty cool, as it gave us an appreciation of the detail involved.

There were a couple of spots that didn't match up just perfectly, but Russ was able to piece together some Plaid magic so that you'll never know.

They completed the bulk of the graphics today, and tomorrow we'll install the rear, roof and finishing details. You can see the entire process (so far) on our PlaidNation Flickr page.

Tomorrow: graphics are completed, and cameras installed!
