I know REM posted this in the Silly 2022 thread already, but I think it best to start a livery thread for throughout the year.

Penrite kick us off with their expanded sponsorship of Grove.
Only differences are the white/red fins on the splitter - that I've noticed.

Easy to forget, Randle unveiled his livery last year

Welcome Lanky and well spotted! ;) Though I am a Tickford fan, that Castrol livery is not a patch on Rick's version in 2020.....
I see Ned has stayed with Penrite. Had wondered if Heimgartner took the sponsorship with him?
Penrite cars look ok, but they had better liveries on the ZB.

It's hard to appreciate new liveries on the current stang after seeing the new model
Not sure I like this. Mandating that teams must have certain themes for different rounds just doesn't sit well with me
https://www.speedcafe.com/2022/02/01/supercars-makes-indigenous-liveries-mandatory-for-darwin/
Supercars has mandated that all teams carry an indigenous-themed livery at the Darwin Triple Crown later this year.
Last year the category confirmed plans to designate its annual event at Hidden Valley Raceway the official indigenous round.
Supercars and its teams will work with local artists to design liveries in the spirit of the event, celebrating Aboriginal culture.
The new rule (E1.9.2) of Supercars' Operations Manual reads, "For the Official Supercars Indigenous Event (Merlin Darwin Triple Crown), it is compulsory for each Car to have a designated Indigenous themed livery.
"Each Team must submit a complete colour graphic illustration representing the proposed design and colour scheme that the Team intends to use on the Car thirty (30) days prior to the Event for cultural approval / appropriateness."
Agreed.

Looks like only a minor change.
Interesting the shirt has Chevrolet Racing. I wonder if the cars will have Bowties?

Seems like a minor revision for 888. I must say, it's softer than last year. Without the hard outlines of the company logos it doesn't look as busy. It's still busy, just not peak hour as per last year.
No Vodafone sponsorship?
Feeney takes on the #88.

Reminds me of last year's livery but with the light blue highlights of 2020 woven in.
I like the way the light blue comes off the bottom of the splitter and up the side of the intake.
Red Bull car looks much cleaner this year... the lighter blue works as a great highlight compared to the red which was too jarring
The T8 one sucks as it's exactly the same as last year..

If the sponsors are happy why change it for the sake of change? Worked well for DJR all these years now as well.

And now that I think of it, Supercheap remains too.
Nice subtle differences on the T8 car. Interesting that the Supercheap Auto logos don't have black borders, I don't think they've changed their logo? Works well.
I believe SuperCheap did an update recently on the logo, it looks good too.
The car looks good. I'm still not the biggest fan of the white void on the front bar, but what can you do when sponsors have requirements.

what makes you think any of those examples sits well with me also. And it has nothing to do with being indigenous, I don't like that teams are being told they have to have any theme for certain rounds.

No need to get pissy just because I'm asking to explain your thought process behind your opinion.
But if we're going to play it that way, in my opinion most of the people saying it's wrong - you included - seem to be saying so just to go against Motorsport Australia and Supercars. Because we all know Supercars fans are some of the most bitter, resentful and needlessly anti-establishment "fans" in the sporting world.
Potentially second only to F1 "fans".

Orange and black are a great combo.
Best to pull it off recently was the 2017 Boost WAU car.
The extra orange does as lot.
Those MSR cars look really good. A lot of sponsors on the car, yet it doesn't feel like a "busy" livery. Very well done.
Looking forward to the first of the two WAU cars tomorrow ;D
Percat is kind of underwhelming...

Whatever it's striking at, it missed.
I think the offputting thing for me is the white point that starts below the headlight and stretches over the headlight and up the bonnet.
The disregard of the headlight shape throws me. Side on it looks great.
Masses of minor sponsors on it. Note that Supercheap are on the rear wing, as well as the 888 cars.
At a very quick glance it has a 1996 HRT vibe.
Love a door number, even if it's stylised to be discreet.

Complete opposite for me.
Like the front, especially the headlight.
Dislike the side, especially the gray.
The door number is different. I wonder if it will be visible on the telly.
I actually really like the Percat livery. It's a good evolution on last year with the white over the bonnet and roof.
The silver is a good secondary colour, as it's not over powering and is a nice touch.
That WAU one is terrible & love the MSR ones
WAU really went from one of the best in 2021, to one of the worst on the grid in 2022.

The white headlight covers ruin both for me. It was the same when DJR switched from MAN to Repco on their headlights in 2018; the cars went from looking mean and aggressive at the front to looking a bit dopey.
I like the 25 other than that.
The WAU liveries are missing the mark for me. Not sure what it is exactly, but just don't like them. Shame, last year's were great, and Chaz's 2020 was good too after they tweaked it.
I think it might be those fine lines down the side of the cars - makes it look blurry and takes away the contrast of the blue or white against the black. And the red 'tongue' on the front is a bit out of place.
Much the same livery for Slade.

Like the man says.
Quote"The livery is obviously the same with the exception of a few new team partner logos.
"I think the car has looked amazing from day dot, so if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
I find it more interesting that they have changed to engines from Herod, as used by DJR.

I can't wait to see these liveries on a proper Mustang body instead of a Falctang.
Heimgartner carries over the R&J Batteries and Cub Cadet sponsorship.
Side on looks great, front on looks great. They just look like two different cars from the 3/4 view!

Agree 100%. Looks good from the side with the white and red (nice color combo). Looks good from the front with the black and yellow (good color combo). But from 45° it looks like a Detroit Red Wings/Boston Bruins bench clearing hockey brawl.
Yep looks great for sure.
Obviously Ned whiskey decided not to do full sponsorship again.
I think the biggest downfall of the WAU liveries is that last years cars just looked so good. It is hard to top a great livery. I'm not a massive fan of the way the white runs past the headlights rather than the headlight shape, but other than that, I think it looks pretty good. I think it would look better with black bonnet as per last years car, but from what I have heard, Mobil 1 wanted white background, and when they are forking out the money, they get the final say I guess.
Blanchard car looks awesome again. Looks even better in person with the finish of the blue than it does in the photo's. So simple, yet so effective.
BJR car is hit and miss. I can't put my finger on why, but it just isn't doing it for me.
Big day tomorrow with Erebus, PremAir and Team18 all releasing their rigs.
Erebus- https://www.supercars.com/news/championship/erebus-reveals-boost-mobile-racing-livery/?fbclid=IwAR3J--foTvjtf_Abf8zbIFnOvsqiYBpn-LVVijGwVe6JvEWoq1eAimGpmYE
Maybe it's just me, but the ZB's don't look as good overall as last year....WAU being the biggest flop, after having the best ZB in 2021...
As much as it pains me to say it, the Erebus liveries are my favourite so far... ;)

Seems like the cars either look incredible or horrific this season. Doesn't seem like there is anything inbetween...

This reminds me of the Ambrose/Ingall 2003 enduro livery ;)
The square lined white bonnet does look odd, like they forgot to paint it or something. I agree last years was better, and even 2020. I do get why Fuchs wanted the white background though.
Love the Subway and Coka cola cars :) 8)
Erebus is pretty decent as well. White seems to be popular again.
It is indeed unfortune that the sponsors have clashing colour background requirements, but the bonnet reminds me of the system that applied 50 years ago. My sponsor had signs painted on white rectangular contact " Golden Fleece, Gehrler Road etc etc". These were then stuck on the team cars but looked odd on the Torana curves.
I am sure that Nick did the best possible combining.
The Coca Cola car does look a bit odd. The black and the white striping seems lost, although it works well in Subways multi colours.
The Tradies scheme is basic but it certainly has the Sponsor's name writ large.
Boost "yawn",
WAU
Quite bland but very hard to top last year... the white on the headlights make them look like Altimas
PremiAir
They look neat and actually like race cars... I like that they have essentially the same design just in different colours
Erebus
Very nice... sleek and simple and good combo of colours
Heimgartner
Kind of a mish mash of the past few years of BJR cars
Smith
Agreed it looks like a 08-09 HRT... nothing wrong with that looks great
Winterbottom
Basically last years with a random white bonnet that hasn't even had borders or contouring applied to the edges to blend it in... sorry Nick but that's a miss
Team18 is almost team Yellow&Blue. IRWIN, Century, Goodyear - hard for these logos to stand out when everything is the same colour.
I thought the very same thing Jetpac - even the dashes of red around the headlight and mirror remind me of Ambrose's car.
An image of Kostecki's TRADIE Mustang. Does feel a little Waters 2016 with the coloured side skirt and front lip.

it's very 'dark'??
Fullwood's looked more 'complete' last year.
Here's Macauley's - new sponsor for the short term. Lots of black cars this year.

the Middy's car is going to look great under lights, which is what it was designed for, then it will change for Round 2
I'm not sure about the Fullwood car. It could look sensational on the track or rather ordinary. Will reserve my judgement on that till I see it in proper light.
The Monster car is really no surprise as is as expected.

Which doesn't really make sense to me. The first night race in 2018 had the perfect amount of light for teams to alter liveries to suit the night. There were darker patches on track and undercar lighting, reflective and glowing decals really stood out.
Now it's light they're driving in the day. So I can't see this car looking much different from day to night.

I agree. Limited lighting was fantastic and this car would probably be the best livery of the round. Unfortunately the spectacle has been ruined with to much lighting and that is not going to do this car any favours.

I like it Nick. A lot of sponsor signs, but they all fit the scheme. Well done.
yep, I like it too (for a holden) 😁😁
Black seems to be the flavour of the year.
Best ones for me are:
1. Smith
2. Mostert
3. Slade
4. Red Bull
5. Erebus / MSR
So we're just waiting for #5 JC now?

It looks like the telephone has been disconnected.
The 5 may be a short lived livery.
I hope the designer is well paid for each new design as the old bloke doesn't seem to be attractive for a full season sponsorship.
A lot of white/black cars this year - most of them all with red trim too. Will be interesting to see how many get lost on TV
Those WAU ones look TERRIBLE!!

I do agree. I thought I could look past the headlight, but I cant.
If they removed that one element they'd be fantastic!
Frosty's car would look infinitely better if that white was incorporated better. Have it come down into the front guards a bit. Maybe put some yellow flecks in there, or some blue bits to tie it all together.
Yes I understand the concept of a sponsor wanting to stand out. Just trying to find a way to make it all tie in better.

I think Smith, Heimgartner and Courtney's car will get mixed up easily?

BJR - Fullwood livery
(https://i.postimg.cc/nLVDxv4t/2022-BJR-Livery-Launch-Car-14-5-scaled.jpg)
Now THAT'S a train wreck!
On track it's my favorite this year.
The white triangles on the C pillar of the Penrite cars looks weird to me.
On TV, the Middys car certainly stood out, but the 888 cars are significantly improved on last year with the addition of more blue. It was particularly emphasised with the frequent viewing of last years cars in the HP adverts starring that well known actor Mr Cauchi. I hope he gets paid every time it runs.
Having seen them all in person now I'd say the MSR cars are the pick of the bunch this year. The PremiAir cars are decent too.
The pink on Fullwood's car popped a lot more than I thought it would. Middy's was by far the easiest sponsor to notice.
I actually thought the Triple Eight Super2 entries had the best liveries across the Super1, Super2 and Super3 grids.

Must admit I was quite surprised by how effective the Middy's car was on track over the weekend, saying that I think there are some tweaks required...see below suggestion.
(https://i.postimg.cc/Cx0ZY8FX/2022-BJR-Livery-Launch-Car-14-5-scaled-TWEAK.jpg)
Took me a while to notice your change Nick. It does look better.
The 'fade' in general is hard to pull off. A larger lightning bold could provide the hard line for a colour shift on the A pillar.
In a similar vein, I decided to have a tweak of the WAU car, and remove that headlight overlap. Original on left, tweaked on right.

You can see some pretty significant changes on those two images posted in back to back comments right above these.

I guess that's a good thing. It's designed by students of the Clontarf Foundation in the Hunter Valley. Just because something doesn't look indigenous, doesn't mean it isn't indigenous. This is done right.

Ryan Story does some great work in trying to bring more indigenous people in to motorsport.

I really like the way the Torres trait headress is done on the roof. When I saw the artist was a Thaiday I understood straight away.

It definitely looks great... but a simple white outer glow on the Coke logo would make it pop just enough to be able to read.
They're definitely not getting their money's worth of exposure this weekend.
But the design it's self is great.
Fairly poor design IMHO, coke logo absolutely lost in amongst the rest. No value for money there.
I've seen Coca-Cola mentioned more in the last couple of posts than what I have all year I reckon, so it's already worth it..

Chaz needs to eat more fibre.....! :D
I wonder if Mobil1 wasn't interested in jumping in on the indigenous round fun. The artwork conveniently stops right before the logo on the bonnet and the smaller logo on the side at the rear...
Having said that, at least the team participated more than Tickford...
Did Courtney or Waters have an indigenous livery? Didn't notice in the Practice highlights?
I didn't see anything on Waters car at all......disappointing effort by Tickford.... :(
Cam has a snake on the front wheel arch and a small indigenous flag under the wing mirror.
James has something on the rear quarter panel but I can't quite remember what animal it is.
That Coke thing is the worse livery ever created!!! The point of a livery is NOT to camouflage the sponsor, it's meant to highlight the sponsor.

Apparently they made the decision to focus on the indigenous aspect of the livery rather than making the logo stand out.

Piss poor token effort from Tickford.
Adderton did it best with Erebus - rather than stickers on a car, donated to charity.
On the liveries: almost all look fantastic, with DJR the best IMHO - apart from the massive Shell logo on the hood. Surely Shell could have agreed to one about half that size just for one round.

Adderton has no excuse not to participate more actively.
DJR look great on track. WAU with 25 is a stunner as well. Tickford obviously didn't get the memo. 888 while looks great in promo shots, on track you can't tell what they did.

I'm still loooooving the DJR cars. Well done to them, they nailed it.
I like the DJR cars. This livery also lessens the droopy nose look.
Coke car is a cleaner design.
Team 18, Pye car. looks ok. Wasn't he sponsored by some tool company?
Boost is poor, although it is probably a testament to the sponsor's ego. I look forward to Erebus 2023 livery. They used to have some of the best-looking cars in the series, but, I guess, Money trumps appearance.
The DJR one looked WAY better on the EL, not a fan. @Stevo Qld I think it makes the droopy nose look worse, not better :)
And I LOVE the coke one!

My error, the Pye cart was sponsored by Nulon who continue to support the car. :-[
I reckon the DJR retro livery would look a lot better if they had replicated the bonnet with 'Shell' text rather than leaving it the same as the regular bonnet.

Agree on the Coke car.
The Pye cart does have an interesting colour combination with green and white highlight on the sides.
When looking at a design, one must consider the multiplicity of sponsors, all with their own placement requirements and colour schemes.
I think the design is good.
It is a fact of life that the days of single major customer cars with clear signage, like the Tru-Blue Falcon are mostly over, with a few obvious exceptions such as the Coke Car (which i like) and the Monster car (which I don't really like). On the other hand, it is still possible to make a major sponsor car look bad, as with the Bathurst Erebus Boost livery.
Another sponsor/livery for Macca Jones and Jordan Boys:

Loving the Pye car, it should 'pop' on tv.
I reckon they should have gone retro BOC style for the Jones car.

Great little team, great to see so many sponsors on the car, would have been hard to place them everywhere, not so great to see Caltex back in another form, but if they are willing to open the wallet good for them
I remember the fanfare that started about 18 months - 2 years ago when Caltex announced it was changing its name to Ampol. "Ampol is a trusted brand..." yada, yada. They said the transition would be completed by 2023 when all Caltex branding would be changed to Ampol - so what's with "Caltex with Techron" advertising? Maybe Chevron and Puma could explain things for us dumb consumers.

My understanding of it was that the outlets that were reverting to Ampol branding were originally Ampol stations using the Caltex name under licence.
We have had a new outlet open up in rural Victoria called OTR. They are predominately SA based and they advertise as supplying Caltex fuel, so my guess is that Caltex will still have a presence, just not how it previously was branded.
Or it could be something entirely different. ;D

I too am confused Zac, I think there's only a handful of Caltex left Australia wide.
There are a few Caltex outlets popping up around Brisbane.
It is good to see them sponsoring Motorsport and the Wild card will get a lot of airtime at Bathurst
Chevron own Caltex (brand) and purchased Puma, which I suspect will be rebranded. Chevron offer 4c a litre discount at both to RACQ members.
The company, now retailing as Ampol. used Caltex branding under a license from former part owner Chevron and that license expired and was cancelled.

The Lowndes livery isn't that great live. The red comes across as a weak light red. Test livery had far more pop to it.
I just looked at the V8Sleuth Spotters Guide.
A lot, maybe most, look very cluttered from that angle.
It also demonstrates that the major side panel sponsor should also rent space at the front.

Okay, just for sheets and grins, I'll take the high road on this one.
I like silver race cars and I will say the basic livery is pretty cool. Obviously, a few forum members feel that there is a problem with said livery.
What does one get paid to come up with a final livery approved by the Team Principal even if everyone on V8 Central is putting their finger down their throats on this one? Does it amount to free tickets to the race? Cash on hand?

A graphic designer would get paid hundreds or thousands depending on their rate and level of service etc etc... (Everyone is different) In some instances putting the designers name on the car can influence the final price.
BUT in saying that a few of the supercar teams do the livery side of things all in house now, from design to wrapping the car. Ultimately the main title sponsor of the car has the final say (and their own logo/brand guidelines) weather the designer likes it or not... so if they say "we want a silver car with our logo and oil bottle on it" then thats what they get, even if the fans hate it.
At the end of the day, if the sponsor is happy with it even if you (the designer) or the fans aren't... then it is what it is, not everyone can be pleased.
Bland, yes. Terrible, not really.
Are they sponsored by Google?

I have a thought they did do an 01/02 retro before?
How cool would the '04 be with the black wheels.
Would also like 2013 retro with the gold wheels but that might be too recent.
From memory, they've done:
1990 - Bathurst 2010
1995 - Pye 2017
1997 - Townsville 2015
1999 - Sandown 2019
2007 (HSVDT) - Sandown 2017
2008 - Sandown 2018

I like it Nick, I've always been a big fan of the one main colour over the front and a different main colour down the side.
So much better than the last one with the Al spec green.

It's gotta be a Red Baron. They've done the 90's to death and anything post 2007 was beyond their glory years.
Please be a 01/02 or 05/06.
They could go with 1987. That'll be very polarising.
The base design looks more like the Honda tribute Red Bull F1 ran last year than a Holden tribute

Haha. That is very iconic but probably more so for HSV than Holden.
1st ever Holden to win Adelaide?
That 888 livery is really disappointing... hopefully WAU do better
I quite like the 888 livery but I'm struggling to see any relevance to Holden specifically.
I think it looks alright and it is in traditional Holden White.
The Holden script on the nose appears to be an almost undetectable light grey on the white background.
Tribute??

Iconic for HSV? HSV (Walkinshaw) and Brock
did not get along, especially when they stole the HDT deal from them. HSV had nothing to do with the '87 Mobil car.
I like the 888 car. Does have Red Bull/Honda vibes about it, but it works as a 'special' livery.
The Red Bull car certainly looks like a 'special' on off livery, but I don't get any holden vibes from it at all. Unless you start zooming in on it, you'll struggle to see anything holden besides the badge.
now THIS, is a great tribute livery.

It's good, but its been done before:

Bit of a let down if I'm honest.

Looks awesome for sure. Even if they had done one before, this really is probably the livery most Holden fans wanted to see.

Was sort of hoping they would take it right back to the 1988 HSV liveries...
Much prefer the WAU livery over the T8 one....
I like it. It is relatively uncluttered, but 888 does have a lot of sponsors.
And, again, in traditional Holden Racing White.
The NTI car looks much better than the Optus car, which seems to have a thin letter logo sitting at an angle that doesn't suit the body shape contours.

Looks like that have put the 90's Optus logo on the Mostert car which is a nice touch.

The "Optus" wording on the car is the same as the "Optus" in this 90's logo.
Its just the wording not the full logo they are using.

Even as someone whose always been a fan of WAU/HRT I kind of think this is underwhelming seeing as it's not only the last time Holdens will be on a Supercars grid, but it's the last time WAU will be with GM before switching to Ford. I thought they would do some more unique than rehashing the Bathurst 2010 livery. There are no visible references to Holden at all. Look at all that white real estate. Why couldn't they have snuck a Holden logo somewhere? It doesn't even reference HSV.
In Red Bull's defense they don't have the same luxury of being able to dig around for retro liveries of their own from 30 years ago so all they could really do is provide a canvas to work off of. At a glance it doesn't look like much, but all the Holden branding going as far back to the 1940s tugs my heart strings. It's subtle, but does the job.
IMO Red Bull's works better as an all round tribute that goes beyond Holden's racing roots whereas WAU's seems more like a retro livery prime for Sandown or Bathurst (Which we've seen before). Disappointed.
