While I do like some of the wraps, and even some of the creative paint schemes, I guess I fall into the "traditionlist" catagory, good, two color paint combinations, and hand lettered numbers and ads, unless the sponsor prefers his/her own decals, dirt racing isn't easy on paint or vinyl, so it's like AJ said, show it or race it, some can afford to do both, most of us can't, I last painted my then new chassis with 6 cans of Rustoleum Sunrise Red, available anywhere for touchup, and used prepainted aluminum for the panels and hood, total cost, about $80.00, the prepainted aluminum is great, light weight, the paint is flawless, and withstands the sanding it gets on the track, no waiting for it to dry, just fit it, peel off the protective plastic coating, and it's ready for the hand lettering, damage one, just make a new one.
