Hello everyone, I’m looking for a talented automotive graphic designer to create a professional, factory-quality retro stripe package for my 2016 Ford Ranger Limited Double Cab with factory canopy. This is not a racing livery or an off-road wrap. The goal is to create something that looks like it could have been an official Ford Heritage Edition from the late 1970s. I already have a concept that I really like (attached). Your task is to transform it into a clean, professional, production-ready design. Vehicle * Ford Ranger Limited * 2016 (T6) * Double Cab * Factory Canopy * Champagne / Sandstone Metallic Design Style The design should be: * Heritage inspired * Retro 1970s * Clean and elegant * Factory-looking * Timeless * Premium It should not look like: * a racing livery * an aggressive off-road build * a modern graphic kit * a sticker collection Less is more. Main Design Elements The stripes are the hero of the design. They should: * begin on the front fender * continue through both doors * continue over the cargo bed * continue seamlessly across the canopy * wrap around the rear corners * continue onto the tailgate The entire design should feel like one continuous graphic. Colours Preferred palette: * Vintage Cream * Burnt Rust * Olive Green Matte finish. Feel free to suggest very similar shades if they improve the overall look. Rear Detail The only graphic element should be integrated into the rear section of the stripe. It should consist of: * a simple geometric sunset * water reflections * reeds No mountains. No pine trees. No cowboys. No animals. No large illustrations. The graphic should occupy approximately 5% of the overall design. Design Philosophy Imagine Ford released a special edition Ranger in the late 1970s. The graphics should look like they belong on the vehicle from the factory. Someone should look at the truck and wonder: “Was this an original Ford Heritage Edition?” Deliverables The winning designer must provide: * Adobe Illustrator (.AI) * CorelDRAW (.CDR) * SVG * EPS * Print-ready PDF Everything must be fully editable vector artwork. Required Views Please provide: * Driver side * Passenger side * Front fenders * Tailgate Technical Requirements * Vector artwork only * Editable curves * Separate layers for each colour * Print-ready * Designed using the official Ford Ranger T6 template * Suitable for premium cast vinyl (3M / Avery / Oracal) Attached Files I have attached: * My current concept artwork Please use these as inspiration, not as something to trace exactly. I’m looking for a cleaner, more refined, factory-quality interpretation. What I’m Looking For I’m not looking for the most complex design. I’m looking for the most beautifully proportioned one. The winning design should be elegant, timeless, and understated. Quality of design is far more important than quantity of graphics. ⸻ Bonus If the winning designer can also provide a realistic vehicle mockup showing the completed design installed on the truck, that would be highly appreciated.

Hello, I created a premium retro heritage stripe package inspired by the factory styling of the late 1970s, designed specifically for the 2016 Ford Ranger Limited Double Cab with factory canopy. The design features clean, continuous matte stripes flowing seamlessly from the front fenders across the doors, bed, canopy, and tailgate for a true OEM appearance. A subtle geometric sunset with water reflections and reeds is integrated into the rear section, keeping the artwork elegant and understated. The color palette combines Vintage Cream, Burnt Rust, Olive Green, and Bronze accents to complement the Champagne Metallic body. The concept is fully production-ready, proportioned for premium cast vinyl, and designed to look like an authentic Ford Heritage Edition rather than an aftermarket wrap. #600 by @abdullaha0624

Hi Sir ! I have just submitted Entry #534, featuring 12 distinct, factory-quality variations for your Ford Ranger Heritage Edition. Each concept strictly respects the late-1970s aesthetic—focusing on clean, period-correct geometry and a flawless continuous flow from the front fender all the way to the tailgate. I would love to know which of the 12 directions catches your eye the most so we can fine-tune it to your exact liking. Your feedback is highly appreciated! Thanks Regarding [@TheZeeshanulhaq]

Hy please check my entry #526 Retro-inspired heritage stripe concept designed to deliver a timeless factory-style appearance for the 2016 Ford Ranger. The clean, continuous graphics, premium matte color palette, and subtle sunset detail create an elegant OEM-inspired look while maintaining a refined, professional finish. This is 100% original artwork created specifically for your project—not copied or traced. I'm happy to make unlimited revisions and customize every detail, including colors, stripe proportions, graphics, and layout, until it perfectly matches your vision.
