Start Your Engines

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, START YOUR ENGINES. We have created the NASCAR of golf. IMGX Kreativ has teamed up with The Highlands Golf Course to launch a new golf cart wrap program for businesses looking to make a statement. As you can see we’ve had quite a bit of interest since the first wrap rolled out in mid July. Word at the club house is that people are requesting their favorite carts for their leisure time on the course. It’s a win, win, win, for us, The Highlands and the advertiser!

Our client list includes some big names like Invisible Fence, Q’doba and Texas Roadhouse. Make sure you see The Highlands Marshal cart complete bullet holes.

iMGX’s Jeremy Deming featured during 22nd Annual Spokane Hoopfest Jun. 24-26th

The “Art Monster”… our own Jeremy Deming was on his biggest “live” stage yet… the Inland Northwest Toyota Dealers “Shootoff Spokane” court during Hoopfest at Riverfront Park this past weekend.

The talented Art Director for iMGX Kreativ put his creativity and artistic spirit on display for all to see in a whole new way.  No doubt thousands of spectators showed interested in winning a new 2011 Toyota Tacoma pick-up with a “graffiti-style” one-of-a-kind paint job that “Jerm” spent 10-hours creating.

The project involved a full vinyl wrap, but instead of printing the digital imagery and full-color graphics on the vinyl, this wrap was pure “Casper” – nothing but white.  “Jerm” as he’s called by his friends… was front and center… using the all-white truck as his canvas to create the most vibrant Toyota Tacoma anyone has ever seen – with spray paint!  The truck was placed on the Toyota Shootoff court… and fans who spent $5-bucks had two shots at hitting a half-court basket.  Doing so would qualify them for a chance to win the truck – and its custom paint job by Jeremy Deming.

Layer after layer of paint kept Jeremy busy throughout the day – and fans showed interest in returning throughout the event to see the progress and evolution of his vision for the truck.  So what’s a wrap cost?  Well, that one at Hoopfest was “priceless” for sure.  If you have interest in seeing how Jeremy can apply his creative design to your truck, boat, trailer, car, RV, motor-cycle, or your business – please give us a call at 800-664-1266 or check us out at www.imgxkreativ.com .

“Roadside Grill” – That’s a Wrap – by iMGX Kreativ

The new “Roadside Grill” is open for business at the Fighting Creek Smoke Shop – a short 20-minute drive south of Coeur d’Alene on US-95.

“Hamburgers and Legendary Indian Tacos” are among the many items on the menu and available within minutes of a customer’s order.

iMGX Kreativ’s Jeremy Deming completed the custom design last week, and less than 24-hours later, the former Goodies Terriyaki Grill trailer – morphed into a vibrant new attraction for the Matheson family.

The design and installation involved more than 320sq.feet of vinyl material.  What made this project exciting and fun – was the quick turnaround needed by our newest client to iMGX Kreativ.  And iMGX Kreativ came through.  Special thanks are also in order for Pat Rotchford, owner of Tint Works in Coeur d’Alene for offering his large, indoor bay to us for finish this project on time!

iMGX Kreativ wraps boat for Hagadone Corp.

What’s the best way to make something old… look new?  At iMGX Kreativ, we prove it – with custom vinyl wraps on all kinds of vehicles, windows, and big-boy toys – including marine wraps for boats!

Our newest wrap – just happened to be done in time for the Memorial Day holiday weekend on Lake Coeur d’Alene.  The Hagadone Marine Group’s Craig Brosenne employed the creative design talents of our own Jeremy Deming who took an older Cobalt 232 and made it look new again – creating a “courtesy shuttle” the Resort Boat Shop is using at the Yacht Club’s “Blackwell Island Marina”.

This project started with a partial-wrap, but after Craig took one look at the potential of the custom design – including metallic highlights, Brosenne opted for the full wrap print.

The 23’-courtesy shuttle will help ferry people around the marina and the lake as needed.  The design features a brilliant “Cobalt” blue color scenario that includes more than 200-feet of 3M Control Tac vinyl.

Auto Tattoo: Officially Launced

Its finally here, “Body Art for Your Ride”. That’s right, we’ve officially launched our Auto Tattoo Program and have began sales to numerous vendors all across the country. You’ll start to notice these kits showing up in gas stations, auto shops, dealerships and many more places. Don’t worry, you can still buy singles here.

Like everything, this program started with an idea just a few months ago. Our art director, Jeremy Deming, had previously bought the rights to an entire book of tattoo styled designs. With tattoos becoming more socially acceptable and a big trend in today’s society, we wanted to provide the masses with something that they could express their love for tattoos while not having to drop hundreds of dollars to get that “sleeve” started.

CDA Casino Bus Wraps

Coeur d’Alene Casino Graphics Manager Bryan Robinson notified iMGX Kreativ of the good news, “You’ve won the bid!” Less than a week later, we rolled out the first of four Guest Services parking lot busses with the new graphics already catching the eye of customers hopping on for a ride from the increasingly full lots at the newly expanded casino.

The Coeur d’Alene Tribe welcomed hundreds of dignitaries and special guests to the Grand Opening of the Casino’s $75-million dollar expansion last week. Behind the scenes, iMGX Kreativ was accepting the mission to custom wrap each of the four shuttle buses this week. The fleet has similar graphics on the side panels, doors and back panel, but a large portion of the passenger and driver-side panels contain their own distinctive Native American theme.

Custom Helmet Wrap

Here’s a project that is bitter sweet…

While we’re not in the business of wrapping custom helmets, we had to see if it could be done with some moderate success.

It would be nice to say that we can seamlessly wrap “anything” but it’s just not true. Have you ever tried to make a piece of paper fit perfectly over a basketball? It’s impossible. Compound curves in all directions make this kind of task very difficult. While the materials we use are constantly evolving to be more and more conformable, good planning can hide the flaws in the process. Continue reading

Mike Metzger at Paradise Ranch



Us hicks out here in North Idaho don’t get a chance to hang with “elite” people every day. Unless you count golf course country club members… but who likes those guys?

When Mike Metzger moved his family to Rathdrum, Idaho the motorcycle community was stoked to say the least. Heaven dropped Mike and his family in my lap and for the better part of a year our families grew close. I even got to practice hitting freestyle ramps with the godfathers guidance. All things come to an end and it was a sad day for north Idaho when the godfather packed up and moved back to the sunny state of CA. We miss him…

Fast forward to now. The MOB Syndicate is an elite team of freestyle riders captained by the Godfather himself. We have had the unique opportunity to create graphic kits for most of the team’s bikes during the birth of the MOB. Look for these designs in our store. Thanks Mike for all the years of dedication and the opportunity to call you my friend.

~Jerm.
