Santini U.S.A. and DVS Designs were contacted to paint this year's tour vehicles as Pete and Nik Santini are no strangers to the Civic Tour - They have been painting custom civics since 2001. DVS Designs, "Dany Scholz" joined the project this year. Dany along with Santini, are resposible for very creative and visual array of colors. Dany airbrushed a surreal paint scheme design using Alsa's Hawaiian Hues for a vibrant use of colors. The surreal design included cats, air balloons and flowers to simulate a "time machine". The artist and Panic at the Disco kept a continuity of an eco-friendly to coincide with the band's environmental actions that is part of the 2008 Civic Tour. All of the contributors did a great job of getting the band's vision from drawings to a custom painted civic.
