Want to win $1600 worth of car audio thanks to the good sorts at Sony Xplod? Simple. As part of our monthly chop shop competition, this month’s brief is to design the graphics for Sony’s new demo car — a brand spanks 2009 Ford Focus XR5 turbo. If you fancy yourself as somewhat of a budding designer, then the task at hand is simple: design front, rear and side livery for the Focus.

Entries are open under 1 October, 2009, at which time there will be a public voting system to determine the finalists. Then, once it’s narrowed down, Sony will select the overall winner who, additionally to having their design used on the Focus, will win the Xplod pack and installation thanks to the guys at Rapid Radio.
