Third brake light decal?

Just randomly had an idea to try.

I would like to take this concept

http://www.americanmuscle.com/coyote...ecal-1114.html

and instead of it saying coyote..have it say supercharged.

Since i have tons of matte black vinyl laying around, it couldn't hurt.

I might try it this weekend. And take pics of how it turns out.

I'd definitely be interested to take a look! I vaguely remember someone around here having them for sale what feels like years ago! Post up a few pictures once you have them so we can get a look!

it'll be a crude design at first, if i get interest my aunt has a plotter for vinyl so i might be able to cut up a couple that are more pleasing to the eye.

I'm not a big fan of the font. I think what you choose should be slightly italic.

Also it might make decal making easier if you use open faced letters, eh?

Here's an example:


When you cut out the one you posted above, you'll have to separately place the little dots for the insides of the R's and P, etc

Well I asked some of the best designers on the east coast and the consensus is that there's not a definitive name for it. If you find a font that you like, i'd be glad to modify it for you in photoshop!

The first one looks really good. I like it. Let me know if you need help with the final draft.
