Symmetrical RWD sticker?

I am having a friend make up some Symmetrical RWD stickers in the format of the classic Symmetrical AWD stickers that come OEM

trying to see how many people are interested in this and get him to make up a few more. Will post a pic of the finished product when I see it

That's a cool idea. I may be down for one if it's small like the original.

make it into a silver plastic badge with 3m tape on the back, that's more OEM.

I like it, I'd likely be down. Looking forward to seeing how these turn out.

Symmetrical AWD means that every drive shaft is the same length thus eliminating torque steer that FWD cars get and many AWD cars get when slipping. here is a vid about it. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OzK-oRPCbs"]Subaru Symmetrical AWD vs. Honda, Toyota, and Volkswagen - YouTube[/ame]


SO symmetrical RWD the drive shafts coming off the rear dif are the same length. just paying homage to subarus roots
