Default Green Ford Badge

A little birdy told me that somebody on this forum can get Ford badges in any colour. I'm after a couple of green ones (keeping in style with the green & black fusion thing) anybody wanna come forward?

QUOTE = DANNY -
:thebirds: Its an easy mod to do if you have a Graphic Designer mate with a sticker cutting machine. He has also told me that If anyone else wants to do it, he has the template saved on the machine, so he can make more. He says that he can sell them for around $15, they can be sent in a std. 45c envelope anywhere.

It's basically a 2 layered sticker with a chrome oval on the bottom, and the ford logo on the top. Top layer can be any colour that you want, and can have any writing you want, but Ford logo is the best. :thebirds:

Hey mate,

It would be great if you could organise this for me, I need one for the front, one for the rear & one for the steering wheel.

I'll PM you on Tuesday when I have some cash & sort something out.

Cheers!

Sorry about the steering wheel but no can do. Its too small for the diamond blade to be able to cut detail in the vinyl.

Front and rear are simple. Let me know.

Hi everyone,

Damian here, Danny's mate...I've just added badge sets to my ebay store. which can be found at the following link.

http://stores.ebay.com.au/grafico-design46

Like Danny said we've got the Fiesta badge size on file, but if there's anyone else with a badge they need a sticker for (eg Falcon/Focus), just let us know the size (height/width) of the oval, and we'll make one up for you.

Thanks, and happy bidding

Damian from Grafico!

no worries...as you can see there's a few other things that may interest ford drivers, such as the "no parking signs" if you were interested in one of those, you wouldn't have to pay postage on the stickers as I can put them in the one post pack.

Thanks

Damian

Before I retire for the night, Here's a sneak Preview of Grafico's expertise...



It is still a work in progress. Bits above the numberplate need a little cleaning up, but It is clear from this trial that it is quite possible, and very easy to do!

Roof and Rear end are harder, they will take longer and require half a day or so set aside. So we will get around to doing them as soon as we can. Thanks Dame! I loove it. Its already sparked plenty a conversation on its first night!

im afraid someone else has beaten him to it, theres a black lx 3dr WP that gets around burwood, it has massive green stripes that are outlined by thin white stipes. it actually look really mad but the guy still has steel weels on it.

Hey...Looks great in teh pic Danny, the rest of the car was pretty dirty so didn't get to see it clean! nice! hehe

Like Danny said, its a bit of mucking around moving, measuring etc, making sure there's no bubbles etc, but it'll be worth it. We'll do the roof and rear next. The rear will most likely be the hardest as there's more cutting involved unlike the roof which is two full stripes.

If others want it done, we could arrange it, but i'll perfect it on Danny's car and let you know. Of course they could be made in other colours/widths etc.

Ciao

Damian

Thanks Guys, good to hear all the positive comments. I can't wait to get the others done, But at the moment it's a trial and error type of operation to get measurements etc.

Dame? Would I be correct in saying that once we know the measurements of the vinyls, we can make up a file on Illustrator with the exact measurements for each section of the stripes? And therefore you'd be able to sell them in your Ebay shop? You'd be the only one in Oz doing that!

Hey Damian (Finally some one with the non demonic spelling)

How about concidering doing side Stripes like these: or with what every logo or writing peeps want. Just a suggestion.
