Say goodbye to crappy paint jobs - Infectious is a new venture that mixes famous graffiti artists with car art. Starting at the low price of $35 (gasp!) these vinyl adhesive graphics let you pick n choose your style without worrying about permanence (or crazy muralists).
The inspiration? Two words: "gorgeous ass". Seriously.

This paint jobs gives a new look to the car.
Dang, another thing that's like "why didn't I think of that?" Ingenious and very stylish and inexpensive. Oh well, there are at least a few more million dollar ideas out there..... -Ed T.
We used to have vinyl adhesive graphics on cars when I was a teenager, though we called them "stickers". Purportedly, they even made the cars go faster!
I'm helping my friend Tim (founder of Infectious) spread the word about the Obama Car Art contest he's hosting.
Basically, the goal is to re-invent the traditional political bumper sticker into something much more inspired.
Design submissions are open until 8/7/08 and some of the early stuff looks really great.
