Damaged paint and mural to cover

I had a 3M clear bra on my car and even with heat coming off a huge chunk of the paint came off the fender when i was removing it , that was months ago then a few weeks ago in a construction site on the highway a car going the other way hit a muffler that the site had ripped off someones car and sent it flying into my car on the other side of the jersey barrier hitting the rear quarter so i decided to use my daughters favorite character and make the car the Bumble I hope you all like it as much as she does .

On the clear bra that stinks , and then the damage on the side. My heart is broken.

Looks like a PEB ( Black eye purple/ purple haze ) MINI also. One of my all time favorite rare colors.

sadly they never sealed properly and then we got a ton of rain and they started flaking off, I ended up blasting them off and starting fresh the best part is the second time came out even better

Finally finished and cleared the Bumble where the Monsters inc. one was on the passenger side, it is considerably bigger than the others but it had a bigger wave in the body from the car door lot incident to cover.

haha this is great! Can you take a photo zoomed out? I'd like to see the whole car and how it looks now. You should send these into Pixar!

Thanks I appreciate the positive input, I have been toying with the idea of putting a lot of different monsters on the car and calling it Monster Mini I have the stuff to flame it and will soon just have to prep the hood, It needed a paint job so im just rolling with the fun now.

My pleasure! If you do that, I'm serious about you sending pictures of your car to Pixar. They'd eat this up!

Probably have the lawyers send him a letter telling him to remove the trademarked images from his car.
