Closely guarded secret for those that have it. I've been looking, heard mention of "Carrera Script" but my googles, they do nothing. Let me know if you happen across it, I'll do the same.
Cheers.

The folks up here in Chicago have "the formula"!
They made perfect GT2 logos for me.

Good luck!

I have the characters GT3 and RS vectored out in AI. Not font though, just the vectors. PM me.

Likewise... heard this is a patented font by PAG. Would love to get my hands on them...

appreciate all the replies gentleman, i have a 997 Turbo and looking to get decals made in the style/font of the stock lettering but that says "EVT670" to reflect the EvoMs kit... wanted to replace the rear turbo badge with that and have it "flow" versus stand out like their stickers they supply..

i contacted those above leads, hopefully someone can "draw" up something...

again, appreciate the help.

By the time he gets this sticker thing sorted, the car will have long since been sold and he'll be on to the next thing.

I have a thread about it, including P's true type font and GT logos.
Search engine is down temporarily though.

It is, as is most of the other logos with a similar type script.

Super! Isn't that an official, rasterized basis for somebody to create vectors off of?

Oh wait, we already have this vector that looks remarkably close to the official one. I wonder how that came to be...

lol

i actually remembered an old graphic guy i had, had him do a sketch... looks good imo..



asked him to do each of EVOms's kit numbers and send me EPS files so i can send to EVOms incase any future customer desires a more stealth look.

also told him to make some random ones incase the sharkwerks guys want RS 3.9 or RS 4.1 decals for customer builds.


if anyone needs anything else, let me know.. no charge...
