02 — How it works
Three steps, no agency in between.
Step 1
Pick your panel
Ten zones in three sizes, priced by surface area and how often a camera points at them. The hood and the sunstrip carry a premium for a reason.
Step 2
Win the bid
The top bid when the clock runs out takes the spot. I get in touch, we agree artwork, and I send the payment link for the balance.
Step 3
Your logo goes on
Cut in premium cast vinyl by a proper wrap shop, applied for the season. Then it comes with me — meets, canyon runs, track days, and every video I post.

04 — Questions
The things people ask.
Is this real?+
Yes. The car is real, the vinyl is real, and the mileage is real. The only fictional part is the idea that a car's flanks aren't premium ad inventory — race teams worked that out sixty years ago.
Why an M3, and why the G80?+
Because it's the last one that still ships with a manual option and a straight-six that wants to rev, and because I've wanted one since the grille photos leaked. Practical answer: it's a car I can drive daily, film weekly, and take to a track without a trailer.
What do I actually get?+
A die-cut cast-vinyl decal of your logo on the panel you won, applied for a full season; your logo and link on this page for as long as the auction page is up; and appearances in the photos and videos the car ends up in. I can't promise impressions or ROI — only that the car goes places and gets photographed.
How does payment work?+
Placing a bid takes a 20% deposit (minimum €25) on card. Lose the auction and it comes back in full, automatically. Win it and the deposit counts toward the total — I send a payment link for the rest. Everything settles in euros; dollar figures on this page are converted.
What if someone outbids me?+
You get a line in the bid history and the chance to swing back. Outbids have to beat the standing bid by at least €50.
Can any brand bid?+
Almost. Every sponsor is approved by hand before anything is cut. It's my car and it parks outside my flat, so I keep the final say. If I turn a bid down, the deposit is returned in full.
How long does my decal stay on?+
One season — twelve months from the day it's applied. Cast vinyl comes off cleanly and doesn't mark the paint, which is exactly why it costs what it costs.
What happens if the car gets damaged?+
Panels get replaced and your decal gets re-cut and re-applied at my expense. If the car is written off, unspent sponsorship is refunded pro rata for the remaining months.
Why not just buy the car?+
I'm getting there, slowly. This closes the gap between the deposit I have and the one I need — and it's a far more interesting way to do it than another year of saving quietly.
Ten panels. One season.
When the clock runs out the vinyl gets cut and the car goes to work. There is no second round — a season is a season.
