Ft86Club Stickers/Decals?

Link to the original designer (last active Oct '14) and design: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...99&postcount=9

Link to original thread (that I found): http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=22267

I know there were a bunch of threads back in 2012/'13 for these decals, all of them are dead though with no real links to anything current. Coming from 8thCivic we had a vendor there, GrafiXpressions (http://grfxpstore.com/index), that did everything vinyl (decals, stickers, emblem overlays, headlight overlays, etc.). I was going to email them about redoing one of the old sticker designs for me personally but I figured I'd see what the interest was before I asked about options/designs and pricing if others are interested. I really like the original design from Ette and was going to get it in red for myself, "maybe" a font change.

I'll post a poll here and vote for if you are interested:



1) "Yes I want a sticker from GrafiXpressions," vote for either of these:
  • Keep current sticker design, looks good
  • Good design, needs different colours
  • Design needs changing, I'll post a suggestion
2) "No I'm not interested in a sticker," pretty self explanatory, let me know why down below (if other than I don't like stickers lol).

@Dave-ROR let me know if this is at all feasible or if I need to edit this for rule violations. Would be kinda cool to have them as a vendor in the future... Thoughts anyone?

Quick update for those interested! I took the liberty of emailing GrafiXpressions' sales team about the possibility of creating some stuff for us 86 lovers and they responded with the following:

Quote:
I think this would be a great idea if you can gather the interest. I would say start up your poll for the stickers and we can see where it goes from there. We can either just do a few for the few members that want it, or if it turns out to have a huge following, we can add the design to our site for members to purchase directly from there. It will all depend on the number of solid interested people though.

As for doing overlays and what not, we think that would be a great idea and something we would be interested in adding to our site. We would need you to scout the forum to find someone in our area that is able to stop in to our shop (possibly more towards the spring time with the warmer weather), so that we can make all the templates, see what is possible and what isn’t, etc. that would be great.
SO, if you want to have some awesome official stickers for all of us on the forum get some hype going and vote on the poll for what you'd like to see! Also don't forget to leave a thought or comment, hearing from the community is what is going to help the most to get this going!

If there's enough interest not only will we have stickers/decals, but possible vinyl overlays as well (used these in the past and they work amazingly well). Obviously if you read the above quote, it would help if there's someone local to GrafiXpresssions who's willing to help them out with templates by bringing in their car to measure.

Post up, share, leave a comment on your thoughts!

These type of things I like putting on my laptop case. My actual vehicle not so much. Regardless, more color options would be nice!

Hmmm, based on amount of interest, I could include FT86 decals with my region 86 club's decal order.

Or I could just ask Ette to get us a restock.

As a reference for comparison, if you order your own custom decal from them (in a regular colour) it should cost between $4-$5.50 for just one. Bulk reduces this cost to about $3.50 each. This is just from using their custom order calculator so the final prices might even be less than that. Plus free international shipping on orders over $20

@bwag could probably do the decals for a really good price, if he's interested

I responded with Yes, but different design.
Suggestion: I personally would prefer something more simple with just the [Insert Region] ft86 text offered in a few colors. The designs are great, and I'm merely offering my own opinion about what I would put on MY car.

Great idea though.

Voted yes but needs a different design.

Suggestion: I like what Notorious suggested. I think the sticker should be smaller (something that fits on those small side windows maybe) and I like the region idea too if that's feasible. Something we should definitely keep from the current design is the simplicity aspect and the transparency of it. I think we should stay away from solid color backgrounds or large images/text.

There wasn't as much interest in this as I would have hoped so no unfortunately not. Can still custom order your own from them as well as some other members on here that do it. :P
