1. Awesome! Let’s design a **sticker theme** for your white Nissan 1400 bakkie using Temu-style decals. I’ll break it down into **3 steps** (with visual mockup ideas you can DIY).
  2. ---
  3. ### **1. Choose a Theme**
  4. Since it’s a street truck, pick one of these styles:
  5. - **Retro Racer**: Vintage stripes + fake "oil sponsor" logos.
  6. - **JDM Street**: Japanese text + minimalist geometric decals.
  7. - **Mad Max**: Distressed/worn stickers + faux battle damage.
  8. - **Monochrome Stormtrooper**: Black/gray decals only (sleek and aggressive).
  9. **Recommendation**: *Retro Racer* (works best with white paint).
  10. ---
  11. ### **2. Sticker Placement Plan**
  12. **A. Hood/Bonnet**
  13. - **2x Racing Stripes** (black or red, 10cm wide) running front-to-back.
  14. - Add small "NOS" or "Turbo" decals near the edges (ironic or serious, your choice).
  15. **B. Doors/Sides**
  16. - **Classic "NISSAN 1400" lettering** in vintage font (like the Champ model).
  17. - **Faux fuel cap decal** (round sticker with "Unleaded Fuel Only" text).
  18. **C. Tailgate**
  19. - Large **checkerboard pattern** (black/white) at the bottom.
  20. - **"Danger: Keep Distance"** in bold red letters at the top.
  21. **D. Wheel Arches**
  22. - **"4x4" or "Off-Road" decals** (even if it’s 2WD—for humor).
  23. ---
  24. ### **3. Temu Sticker Shopping List**
  25. Search these keywords on Temu/AliExpress:
  26. - **"Black racing stripe decal"** (pre-cut, 10cm x 2m roll).
  27. - **"Vintage car sponsor stickers"** (e.g., "Mobil 1," "Castrol").
  28. - **"Japanese car decals"** (for fake JDM text like *"Gurasu-Go"*).
  29. - **"Checkerboard vinyl sheet"** (cut to fit tailgate).
  30. **Budget**: ~$20-$50 total.
  31. ---
  32. ### **4. DIY Application Guide**
  33. 1. **Clean the surface** with rubbing alcohol (no wax residue!).
  34. 2. **Use soapy water** for large decals—helps reposition before drying.
  35. 3. **Start with stripes** (hood first), then add side/tailgate decals.
  36. 4. **Seal edges** with a hairdryer to prevent peeling.
  37. ---
  38. ### **5. Bonus Touches**
  39. - Paint **wheel rims matte black** to match the decals.
  40. - Add a **fake bullet hole sticker** on the fender (for "Mad Max" vibe).
  41. - Install **amber fog lights** (cheap, $15 on Temu) to complete the look.
  42. ---
  43. ### **Mockup Example**
  44. ```
  45. [WHITE NISSAN 1400]
  46. Hood: ||=========|| (black stripes)
  47. Doors: | NISSAN 1400 | + "Mobil 1" decal
  48. Tailgate: [⚪⚫⚪⚫] (checkers) + "DANGER" text
  49. ```
  50. **Result**: A head-turning street truck for under $50!
  51. Want to tweak the design? I can refine it further! 🚛💨
