PROFILE #2
Signarama
Owner: Jeff Schadlow
Location: Culver City , CA
Type: Vinyl Signs & Installation

Signarama is a franchise that is located in just about every state. Each Signarama is independently owned and operated, so you may not get the same results as I did here if you don't use this same exact location.

I worked with both Peter and Jeff Schadlow, the owner.

Why do I recommend Signarama? They worked hard to make sure I was happy with their work. I provided digital files in EPS format by using Adobe Illustrator and saving EPS vector files. Just to be sure, I printed out the design at full size by tiling multiple pages, and placing them on my car for placement. I then showed these mockups to Peter so he could make any necessary adjustments. So even before the job began, I supplied them with color printouts of the car depicting placement and size (Just photoshop'd digital pix of the the car), full size tiled mockups of the graphics, and a CD-ROM containing all the files.

Except for the windshield graphics, the rest of the window graphics proved to be very simple. The windshield required several tries due to the windshield curvature. The other area of difficulty was in applying the racing stripe to the hood in the manner I wanted.

They could have given up and sent me elsewhere, but instead they researched the problem, and came up with a workable solution. This sheer determination to find the right answer greatly impressed me and that deserves my recommendation!

So next time you want to apply some graphics to your MINI and you're in the Los Angeles area, please don't hesitate to contact Jeff Schadlow and let him know you saw their work on my website for Lil'Octane.
