desperado Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 Yeah Baby!!!!! You might want to look into the special window tint that can be cut with those. You can do some things with tint to produce some badass effects. There is also a "etched glass" vinyl that looks pretty tits. I worked in a shop where we were playing with some of that doing truck back windows. Big multicolor outlines then applying 60% tint to the entire window, cutting other darker tints and applying them over to 60% for different effects. Played with lightbox projects to where you used the negative on plexiglass with black vinyl, then different tints. You may already know about all that, and maybe not. But these other guys on here that only know about tribal and ricer vinyl most likely don't. If you want some other ideals or need pointers on doing stuff other than just basic lettering and graphics PM me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TrboVan Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 Nice, bet that set you back a few bucks. Could you whip me up an awd badge like on this svx? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v260/Ricochet16/7672.jpg Get me the dimensions and I will get right on it! Also, what color? -Bryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not plan on doing any tribal/ricer stuff unless the buyer wants to pay double the price! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemosley01 Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 Bryan, would it be possible to get decal made for the rear bumper on my car? I'll have to get measurements, but it would look like this: http://www.graphic-express.com/ford_windshield_cobra.htm I have a newer style Cobra and the decal would go in that area below where it says 'Mustang' - you can see the area that I am talking about in this picture: http://www.bobwhitedecals.com/Products/9903Decals/LVBO.html I'm thinking charcoal gray and white lettering (the car is red). Thanks, Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TrboVan Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 Sounds easy enough. You want the snakes Grey and the letters white if I understand you correctly. Get me the size and I can see what I can do. Thanks!! Bryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryan I was thinking a charcoal gray background with white snakes/lettering, but now that I think about it...gray snakes + white lettering sounds cool also. Would they be separate pieces (eg, each letter separate and the snakes separate) or printed on a clear piece of vinyl? Sorry about my ignorance on the subject.

Guest TrboVan Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 Is that part of the car smooth? You could just use straight vinyl letters and not worry about having the background, unless of course that is the look you are trying to achive. -Bryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking it will be easier to apply if it is laid out on a background. I'll get measurements when I get home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemosley01 Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 Bryan, the entire area is 34 1/2" wide by 3 1/2 inches tall. However only 30 inches of it is actually available for lettering. The top left/top right corners aren't actually square, they curve out to the bottom. If you make the snakes and letters fit in a 30 inch wide area and leave 2 1/2 inches are so of overage on each side, I can trim it down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemosley01 Posted August 9, 2005 Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 Bryan, I forgot to ask the same question as damreds. I am assuming they are sticky on the backside? Or else, is there another way of applying vinyl? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
