I mainly do full car wraps, but if there's enough guys interested, I can try to see if I can make a couple of sets. Post up in this thread or shoot me a PM on here!

If the sizing is right, I'd be interested too. Matte black, I think.

Can you do the reverse image like so?

Good thing I still have my factory trunk around and didn't put it in storage yet. I'll try to create something over the weekend and if I am not too swamped with work next week I'll try to get some pictures of it installed as well.

It's night time here and the only trunk I have access to is a spare one that's not mounted on the car, so these pictures are not going to be the prettiest, but hopefully you guys can see the design of the decal on the trunk well enough.

Interestingly enough, I already had the font made from a previous project, so I just had to size it accordingly.

Let me know what you guys think and if you're interested in a set, feel free to PM me on here.

*Edit* Also, just to note, the decal was just laid onto the trunk, so the spacing that I did isn't exactly even on all sides. For those who wanted the reverse outline done, like what Spartansix had posted, I can make those as well.

Hey Don,

Thanks for taking the time out & taking this on. Much appreciated.
Here are my thoughts:
In my opinion, the decal needs minor tweaking. The Letters need to be more narrow & a touch smaller in scale/size. Font is great!!

Example: Pay close attention to the "S" and the "E" on the Singer car. They are different than your decal. There is very little space in between the curves of the "S" for example.
Thoughts?

I think he means to say "squish it" a bit more, so its not as tall with minimal space between. After that, it might need to be thickened just a tad. But you're on the right path! I'd be interested in purchasing one as well once made perfect.

Width wise, I think it's going to be fairly close, since the trunk itself curves slightly on the sides, the distance between the decal lettering and the side edges of the trunk are constantly changing.

I went back and changed it up slightly based on what you were describing.

Yes, "Squish it" a bit more. I also agree that it's too tall. The Letters need to be more compressed so there is minimal space between as Vancleef said.
However I do think the thickness & font is just right. I wouldn't thicken it up anymore. It's pretty close though!
