I think cars are not painted anymore, they use stickers.

Stickers/decals are probably the cheapest and most flexible solution if you want to optimize your stock of spare parts. They don't paint parts on site during race events, do they ?

The last car I saw they painted was the Krohn Ligier, but that car has a colour base.

There are some videos and new pictures of both cars at Paul Ricard, at Rebellion Racing's facebook page.

Generally they'll paint the car the colour of the most prominent colour and sticker the rest, at least that's how it's done in series I've been involved with.

My best guess now, is that Rebellion Racing will run a chrome-red base color livery with additional white stickers on the #13 and a white base color livery with additional chrome-red stickers on the #12. I do hope for some additional gold and/or black stripes/patches as last year's red-and-white-only livery was not the most pleasing to the eye IMHO. |

Indeed. That's what I was trying to lead to. Chrome-red sticker film for the base color of the #13, and likely a white sticker film for the base color of the #12. No need to paint the base carbon bodywork.

Don't they wrap them in some kind of vinyl or similar these days, rather than paint them?
Here's the ZEOD being wrapped last year: https://www.facebook.com/NissanZEODR...type=3&theater And a video of the process being applied to one of Nissan's GT3 cars: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5fBZrhCuKA(at 2:35 you see the white base wrap being applied to a bare carbon bonnet) It looks relatively quick, and doesn't require any special tools. You could do it at the circuit for instance. |

Really it comes down to budget, facilities and personal. Some teams will just fully wrap and others will spray if they have the facilities to do so.

I knew as soon as I wrote about paint there would be comments. It was a turn of phrase as much as anything. Slating a livery before there even is a livery.

Either way, going to relish seeing a pair of Rebellions at Le Mans. |

Just got confirmation that both cars indeed use vinyl films for the base color

Are they going to stick to the 2014 liveries or actually implement these new ones? Cause I tell you, that 'metallic' red is possibly the sexiest I've ever seen, on already pretty chassis.

Looks like the AER engine needs more cooling. It was the same with Kolle's car. New side pods are bigger than last week.
