Official FT86Club decal ideas? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Hanzo · 05-31-2012, 09:54 AM

Hello everyone, I was wondering if members on this forum would like to have one official club decal representing the club. Now that both BRZ and FR-S are out in the states it would be nice for members to show their association to this community. I've created this decal a while back and would like to see others post some of their ideas.

Owner/moderators of this forum please weigh in and let us know if this is a good idea.

My design idea (small vinyl decal in off white 3.5" wide). Updated the decal design based on feedback below.

I would guess it'll look something like this:

Yes please

I'd buy a set!

Is this going to be an oval sticker that has a black background?

When I had a Toyota I was a member of ToyotaNation.com, and theirs were made in various colors that matched the color of their cars which was pretty cool, and it was only text from left to right with their "TN" logo. What I liked most was that the decal had no background, so it could be placed on a window, on the paint, or wherever and not have a different colored background. Just an idea.

Down with this. Suggested placement of the decal is perfect.

edit: preferably the background would be transparent or it'd one of those decals where the foreground is actually cut out and you just slap the cardboard on the car and then peel off the backing

That's my preference, a transparent background. It allows it to be placed elsewhere without sticking out too much.

I dig this. I'd love it in die cut color matching vinyl…

Yep, that's the idea.

I do have a concern with it being die cut from vinyl. There are some small thin lines in the design. Does anyone know more about vinyl die cut?

DyoGTS · 05-31-2012, 11:36 AM

I'd buy a couple if it was cut vinyl without a background... The letters look small, so you want to ensure that that every little piece is secure before taking off the backing (kinda like a temporary tattoo), but it shouldn't be a problem

Looks excellent!!

Turbowned · 05-31-2012, 12:01 PM

I like it! Offer them in different colors and I'm sold!

the GT86/FRS/BRZ text is very thin and when scaled down may be too thin to cut properly. Other than having to max that text slightly bigger or bolder, I think that will be the only issue.
