They are 1", Helvetica font, which I found at Staples for $4 after taxes. I think a local shop would be better as I"m sure they can beat that price and get the exact size and font your after.

Yucca, if you try again. Try using some static cling printing paper or some of that static cling clear plastic used to cover left over food. It's early. I can't think of the obvious name.

Put the letters and numbers face down, sticky side up, on the static cling stuff. You'll need to use a small screw driver or knife to hold it down so it doesn't stick to your fingers. This will help you line them up better then you can take the whole thing and apply it to the glass and once they are stuck, the static cling stuff will pull off easily.

Thanks

Guys I can cut them free for you and bring them to next meeting or send me a sase. I think SB has the perfect place and size and that font looks good even from a distance, easy to read.

Darn it! I just ordered the $3 ones from Aesthetic Creations. Hopefully he won't take too long to get it to me. If it seems delayed, I'll get back with you for one!

While in the shop today to have a bonnet stripe installed. I had the guy make me a new one with a similiar size and font of the Actual Size decal. It's still legible from a distance.

Both are 1" in size. The lowercase being smaller but I believe it still equates to what is referred as a 1" font. The font. I'm not sure what the name of the style is.

Just received mine from Aesthetic Creations. I'll put it on as soon as I can get to washing the MINI. . . Looks like mine will be very similar to SB's
