2 Attachment(s)
Only had time to play around w/ 2 ideas over the weekend!

will layout some better plans if i have time 2night

sizes are ~ 6" x 2.5" and 7" x 1.5" - of course, i can scale them to any size ya need,
and only color material i have right now is, black/white/BRIGHT yellow/red/limegreen

Roddimus Prime December-11th-2006 10:54 AM

why is the 3 backwards.

Jackelope December-11th-2006 12:00 PM

just someth'n for the ricers :D

i've got it both ways @ home

chiefmg December-11th-2006 12:33 PM

Heh-heh. He said he goes both ways. Heh-heh.

Jackelope December-11th-2006 02:08 PM

not.. "goes" - - - "got" small, but very important difference...

^i thought i put the other "3" on my jumpdrive, got to work, it was wrong one.. oh well, uploaded anyway.

and i plan on offer'n these in 1 color or 2 colors - or fancier material (shiny mosaics/holographic/etc.)

Active3s December-11th-2006 06:31 PM

Hey, you can download free fonts here http://www.typenow.net/. Might help on the design. Just use the drop-down navigation bar. Might find something even more interesting for the decal....

Jackelope December-12th-2006 05:56 AM

^ i got tons of fonts :) - just decided on something simple, easily readible, and rounded so it won't blow off @ 110... :D

but... added to my bookmarks

Jackelope December-13th-2006 08:21 AM

blah

chiefmg December-13th-2006 01:26 PM

Sorry for my previous, I was trying to be funny and it seems I insulted you. I apologize.

That price sounds good to me. Not sure I would buy one of the forum stickers, but I would like to get a "zoom-zoom" sticker in outline using the same font as Mazda (if you know what I mean) sized to go over the third brake light. If it looks good I would buy a couple. Can you do something like that?

KrayzieFox December-13th-2006 02:08 PM

^ I'd take one of those too for my P5 spoiler brake light.

Roddimus Prime December-13th-2006 05:38 PM

yeah, I'd like some zoom zoom decals for shizzle.

Jackelope December-13th-2006 05:46 PM

should be able to do that

soon as i find the time! been @ work since 5:30, still here...

no insult taken! ;pantdrop;

btw. i just did a sticker set for an '88 monte carlo SS, turned out good!

what color would these "zoom zoom" stickers needa be?

talking bout this zoom zoom?

KrayzieFox December-13th-2006 06:23 PM

That zoom-zoom looks fine to me. I would say black decal for me, since I have a CF spoiler that wouldn't stand out until I hit the brake. Otherwise, white would be ok too.

Does that mean you have the redass, or you want me to kiss it?! :rolleyes:

That's the zoom-zoom I am talking about, but I think it would look cool if the letters were outline form (hollow middle) instead. That would give you the max light coming through and should make it easier to read when you hit the brakes. Although, I am not sure I want people reading my tail while I am braking! Mainly I want to be different. I put one of the Mazda zoom-zoom stickers on my gf's Pro on the back window, I personally like the stealthy approach and putting them on the third brake light fits the bill.

Roddimus Prime December-13th-2006 07:21 PM

I'll have to see the Z-Z decal on someones car before I commit to that....I dunno how it'll turn out.

chiefmg December-13th-2006 08:01 PM

I'll volunteer to be the guinea pig. Barry, let's get together and figure this out. I really think it would look neat, nice and low-key but special.

KrayzieFox December-13th-2006 10:27 PM

Man I wish I could just hop in and meet up with someone from the forums, I have absolutely no one within a 200 mile radius. I am the ONLY modified Protege I've seen in all of Iowa.

Anyway, please keep us posted on the progress of these logos. I'd definately buy a zoom-zoom one if it covered the whole light and looked right. Good luck on this new project, I bet you're having a blast with it now :)

Jackelope December-14th-2006 05:30 AM

how bout this, i cut one out, put it on my car... take a pic :)

KrayzieFox December-14th-2006 08:43 AM

Good thinkin ... you're a genus!!

couple samples:

chiefmg December-14th-2006 10:36 AM

The second zoom-zoom is what I had in mind, as long as the center portion of the letters is clear. With the outline black I think it will blend in nicely with the brake light until the light comes on. I like subtle.

Jackelope December-14th-2006 11:29 AM

yah, that one would be the "color" only

Havent forgot the zoom=zoom, just been busy! - plus i dont have a car w/ a third brake light! (didnt realize the ES's only had the spoiler light.... can someone get me the dimensions of the 3rd brake light area?

Roddimus Prime December-21st-2006 06:24 AM

Not sure if you are talking about the spoiler light dimensions or not, but that is where I want to put one. I'll get you some measurements off both my Pro and the Speed6 when the rain lets up.

Jackelope December-21st-2006 12:49 PM

^ i was confused, thought u were wanting one on the 3rd brake light in rear window (like my old DX has) - i'll work on the spoiler light

matt - 2 much info! :shift:

i'm about 1.5-2 from Helen, you should eat @ the club right there on the river, good eat'n and there are some nice curves on the other side of Helen! :nod:

Roddimus Prime December-21st-2006 09:54 PM

We'll be in the beetle!

Barry , I need a "mazdaspeed" decal but I'm not 100% sure of the size. How soon after I get you the measurments can I expect to get the decal? I've got to coordinate a few things with my body guy as soon as my parts start showing up.

Jackelope December-22nd-2006 05:56 AM

depends on what color you want it... (only have a few colors right now) *if* i have whatever color you want, i can cut it out that day (night), ship next day.

Roddimus Prime December-22nd-2006 11:03 AM

color wont matter. It'll be painted over and then discarded. I'm actually de-badging the car all but the 2.3 emblem on the rear and the ms logo on the tmic.

I want the guy in the bmw I just smoked to wonder what beat him.

Jackelope December-22nd-2006 12:59 PM

So black will do :) - just let me know the dimensions

Roddimus Prime December-22nd-2006 02:02 PM

will do!!

Jackelope December-22nd-2006 03:52 PM

If u find out over the weekend, send a message via IM to (jackelopeGA)

Jackelope December-28th-2006 05:53 AM

^ finally did the zoom-zoom on the spoiler, not a lot of room back there! Will post picture later today.

Roddimus Prime December-28th-2006 06:23 AM

i havent gotten it yet. as soon as t shows up I'll measure it.

quick shot @ night

probably thicken it up a little... and when light is on, it "disappears"

chiefmg December-28th-2006 09:37 AM

That looks great! I wonder if you made the outline black if you could still see it with the brake light on? I just love the subtlety of it.

Jackelope December-28th-2006 01:36 PM

^ i'll find some scrap black and find out!

that piece is ~ 9" x .750" (or.. about $4.50 shipped)

i put that piece of my wifes car (mine is in shop getting trunk fixed/repainted - plastic keeps crack'n - guy is fed up, changing it to a metal piece) - it was on there about 20 seconds... wife didnt want it on her car to begin with - haha

KrayzieFox December-28th-2006 02:05 PM

I like that .. I'll take one in black if possible :)
