Can you shrink that silhouette up some, small enough to fit next to the rear plate? ETA: With the "NORTH" and "WEST" in the same font?

Shrinking the silhouette will just give you problems. If you see a 7" in person you'll understand how thin the lines already are and making them smaller is increasing potential for failure. The text only version could be reduced to a 5" and be ok I think. I can try cutting a 5" silhouette and see if it can be separated from the waste if you're set on a smaller silhouette but I have my doubts. It's a major PITA to separate the 7" version and will get more difficult the smaller it gets.

I want this to be a recognizable logo that keeps things consistent. If the text font and weight is the same on both sides it would bring the 86 farther off center due to number of letters in each word. Changing the font at this point is a no go.

Where do these stick on to? Outside or inside the window? Water resistant? And over time will these leave a "tan line" if I decide to take these off at a later date?

Tan line? No. Water resistant? Seriously? It's vinyl, it'll last a long time. If you have tint put it on the outside, they're not reversed anyway so it would look ridiculous if you did that.

They are meant for the outside. The vinyl is ORACAL that is good for 6-7 years outdoor.
If you put stickers directly on the paint of the car then yeah, over time your paint will fade and the area under the sticker will be untouched by the sun. Typically even this can be buffed out though.

I suppose if you put it on the glass and you have really cheap tint then the tint will fade or turn purple and the area behind the sticker will stay a little darker but I think it's a long shot with most of the tint products that are applied today. I wouldn't worry at all about putting them on your glass.

Yeah, I can cut you one Kohei. Darren was wanting one with a curve to it but I'm unsure how it will look if we start warping the text to conform to the curve of the A-pillar. I think it looks really good how it is but I was going to experiment with the curve and see what it looked like before putting them on the order sheet.

For reference here's the vertical one again in it's current form

Thanks for the quick reply Kevin, I like the curved idea to contour with the windshield pillar. I'm not sure how it can be done since I'm no art major, but if that is too difficult, I can do the straight line vertical vinyl as well. Can I just give you cash when I see you?
