A couple of months ago, I slid while driving in the rain and ended up doing a couple of thousand dollars of damage to my mom's car. Yeah, not a good thing to do at all. :-\ The first series of repairs has been done [to get it to the point in which it can be driven], but it's still dented until I put aside enough money to fix that.

Luckily, my mom isn't upset about it -- and she has a good sense of humor && an appreciation for creativity.

I want to make a large band-aid to cover the dent with until it's back to it's former state.

I'm guessing vinyl (marine-grade to be weatherproof?) would be the best material to make it out of, with a band-aid design painted onto it to look like


Now to pick the brains of the crafty folk on LJ!

What sort of paint would adhere best to the vinyl? I'm guessing acrylic with a waterproof spray atop of it.

Also, any ideas as to how it should be attatched? The way the dent is, I don't think it's something that could be tied onto the car, but rather have to be attatched using some sort of adhesive -- perferably one that won't rip off the paint when being removed.

Thanks in advance for your help! :)
