tock172 · 10-28-2016, 04:57 PM

Fucking awesome! A for effort and creativity!

Thanks all! It was a lot of fun. I considered going out today (the real day of Halloween) but after a full weekend of halloweening and driving around being Luigi, I decided to leave the 135 at home (still wrapped BTW) and head to work in a normal car/clothes.

I will say, there are two take aways from doing this:

1. there are two types of people who loved my car: Kids & adult kids (like Adults who still have that kid mentality)

2. 99% of everyone else is either too busy looking at their phones to notice or they are such zombies to their daily grind that they never take the time to look around them at what's going on.

I had several people on the highway voice "oh my god" when I would pass them and then have them floor it to catch up and take my picture. I had one guy who was driving slow in the fast lane so I held up the huge 15" plush green shell pillow I had acting like I was going to throw it at him and have him move over for me. And had several kids walking home from school on Friday yell out "LUIGI!!!!". All in all, it was a blast and a ton of fun. Would consider doing again next year...but not Luigi...maybe Waluigi.

Very funny!

Matticus91 · 10-31-2016, 10:16 AM

Amazing! Lol very creative and love the wrap. How hard was it to wrap your car like that?

nacaruh · 10-31-2016, 11:16 AM

It was harder than I realized. My friend who cut the vinyls for me gave me a few pointers which helped but it still took me about 4-5 hours in total. But by the time I was onto the 3rd panel, I had tripled my speed at doing it. The hood was the hardest/longest because it was the first thing I did and I made a lot of mistakes I had to correct.

I have a green shell (pictured here)

I just got word that I won my office costume contest!

Prize is unknown yet, but usually it's some kind of amazon gift card. I had a blast doing it, I'm also sick and tired of being Luigi all weekend and halloween in general. Tonight, the vinyl comes off after we do a trunk or treat with the kids!
