No, but I did think about it quite a while ago. I think it would look good but it would have to be done right or it will look tacky.

i agree... it has to be done right or else will look pretty nasty..... i also think a polar white with the white city camo will like sick!

Oh damn a city camo would look sweet!

I think if you really want to do real camo, have a good
designer do it on paper first so you *know* how it will look.
Once on paper, a paint shop or hell, even a vinyl shop should
be able to replicate *exactly* what you have drawn out!

Cool idea!

If done tastefully why the hell not. But I think it would be a real fine line if done.

I just got the Mossy Oak Brand Camo seat covers. I've also got a standard pattern camo on my hatch cover, it's a thin netting, so the lights will shine thru. Subtle. I'm seriously thinking about doing something in the door panels too...

you could get the camo wrap that is sold for the sides of the p-ups. It is like the vinyl wrap that is used for advertising. If you get tired of it, you can take it off...

I was thinking about this too.

There's a Honda Element (I know, I know ) that's been in the show scene in Southern California that's decked out in an urban camo pattern.....all done in shrink wrap. Looks pretty tight. The only Element I've ever liked (that and the one with the surf motif....oarnge and woody. Neither one has that cheap plastic paneling)

Also, when Monster took our xB they shrink wrapped it in kind of a camopattern, but then put monster graphics on top of it.

I'll see if I can find pics.

Ok, here's some pics.

Our car with the cammo/monster graphics. It used to be a white car....click on my profile and you can see the old graphics (the pic with me and courtney day). YES, it's the same white car underneath the vinyl for those who don't know what shrink wrapping is.



It was pretty tight, they shrink wrapped an RV and the Trailer to match too....it's an interesting cammo pattern...darker than regular urban. I like it.




And here's that Element. I don't know why I remembered it being cammo patterned, but oh well. Still looks pretty cool, and for those who don't understand shrink wrap now they can get a good idea of what it looks like:

What does it usually cost (ballpark figures) to get a xB wrapped?

They are a little tight right now but already settling in, at least on the driver's side. the passenger side is still kinda hammock-like. Much more comfortable than my old seatcovers tho, and the pattern has just enough light colors in it to catch the light without looking light colored. Whew, that was a mouthful...

Does the steering wheel cover match the pattern of the seatcovers? i couldn't tell from the pics on their website. And does it fit our big steering wheels OK?

Sorry, site rules say to keep things family friendly... Oh wait... nevermind...

I don't have any pics of the recent version (version 4, I believe). I'll try to get some, maybe this weekend at Import Motion. I cut a piece of plexiglas to replace the hatch trim cover. It began with 4 LED light bars behind it. It currently has two CCFL tubes and the plexi is kinda smoked/fogged so you can't see the lights and the camo webbing is on the front of the plexi and hides the plastic-ness of it but the light still shines thru. Still not a finished project, but it's moving forward.

I recovered the rear hatch panel with camo a while back. Thinking of doing the fabric inserts in the doors as well.
