My tint guy has a friend who will make anything out of vinyl you want.

Although I think it would be cool if one of the NAM vendors came up with a set of "1/1 scale" and "Actual size" decals. And other cool MINI sayings. I do know a NAM member gives away Actual Size ones for free.

I just thought about that decal last week, 'cause I love the Actual Size idea.
Want me to make some?

Which do you like better?

How about the one "Rules the bends, Bends the rules" I've seen on some cars. But yah the Actual size and 1/1 scale are good ones.

I like the second 1:1 Scale you showed but the numbers and the word scale in the same size font for me. :smile:

Send payment to your local sign shop. Tell them you want clear matte vinyl, not polyester (too shiny). Or if you just want the design to "rub-off' onto your glass, tell them you want it cut on a plotter and to add transfer paper. They should charge you about $5 for one.

I won't get around to making these for awhile and I couldn't charge you more than $1.50 (I'd have to make about 200). Maybe I'll do it for M.O.R.E. If you need an art file, I'll send you one. Just email me. miniswag@yahoo.com . Or as a last resort, I have a friend with a plotter-- he might make some sooner. I'll ask him and post here.

I've never been to a tate breakfast.
I remeber seeing this decal long time ago and wanted one for quite a while but forgot about it.. Not sure what made me remember it again.. I think I saw a picture somewhere

Anyways, Thanks DVLMINI. I will check with a local sign shop, but dunno where it is, too lazy to look around in the yellow book etc.etc. so let me know if you're friend is willing to make some.
