My goal when I designed the decal is to create something thats simple, sophisticated, subtle. I want it to look like it those Japanese style factory window decals.

I'll give it one more crack tonight, since Ive got highly reflective window tint I think it may be easier to see now. Pics to come later tonight~

Does this great looking decal increase horsepower or torque?

Your camera is auto focusing on the reflection of the window. Try another shot.

I personally love Hanzo's oval emblem, because it makes owning a BRZ/FRS/GT86 AND being part FT86club seem much more than just being part of a auto club.
ah I see what you're saying. More of a member badge than a headline.

Once again, Cafepress has failed me. I put on the decal last night on my new BRZ and yes, mattles you are right, it's almost invisible in a bad way. If we want to use this design as the club decal can anyone source the vinyl cuts?

PS: I have removed the decal from Cafepress shop.

I may be able to help here as my dad owns his own graphics business which has extensive capabilities... window decals should be a BReeZe! Simply email me the image and an approximate size and I'll check to see if he can produce a demo which if it works out I can mail the graphic to you to test and send feedback on.

He's done a building, how hard can a car window be?

He also has vinyl capabilities - right in line with what you're after. Simply a matter of size and color!

I'll have to snag some images of what he's done to my mom's car, insane! But shoot me a message if interested. Thanks!

Winified (My mom's Mini Cooper) Certainly we're not looking to go this extreme, but I'm showing that car graphics are not a problem inside or out...

May want to consider outside the window as there are many that have expressed interest in tinting their windows... just my thought :/

The question now is will this be official enough for FT86 Club to use? I don't think it's a good idea to have too many different club decals. That would dilute the brand of this community.
