I would put some old style decals on my 90 to make it look older if anything :) (less chance of thieves being interested in the car then ;) )Quote:

here are some small graphics on my defender, not what you are after in this thread though I assume?

What is the symbol on the bonnet?
I agree. Someone I know owns Bodymold Graphics. They do reproductions of the County graphics. They used to be on eBay for about $165. I was thinking of getting them to do up a nice set of County graphics with "County" changed to "Defender" and "v8" changed to "TDCi". But then I thought of lots of other things to do with $165 :DQuote:

It is indeed the Heartagram from HIM, I would have gone for a nightwish logo but it just didn't look right, it was printed to test out the cutting on the new vinyl printer my mate got for his business.Quote:

Had these done for a Vic HC photo shoot.
Will be removing and doing a custom version of the 60th Anniversary Defender side decals in satin black.

Satin black vinyl stuck on bonnet to reduce sun glare will be staying

I like the Defender logos, I have one faded one and one newish one, due to wifey having an incident a few years ago. I have seen them without and think they look plain, and it makes the misaligned panels stand out more.
I was thinking today about zebra stripes, wouldn't be too hard, as I have a few mates who could do it, and easily removed later.

I see there is a defender for sale atm with zebra stripes.
I quite like the 60th decals just not so much black on black
I've been keen on replacing the decals on my 90 for quite some time (see below), but could never find the right design.Quote:

I got in touch with a helpful member of another forum who was kind enough to supply an Adobe Illustrator base file which I could then modify to suit. It's 90% there (and from afar looks perfect), but I'm still not quite happy with the font, and I still need to check the dimensions prior to printing.
If anyone is handy with Illustrator and has a bit of spare time, I'd be happy to provide the working draft and talk them through the changes. I've just got too many other projects on the go that it's quite low on the list of priorities. This is where it's at currently - the right hand side door is reasonably good - the LHS still needs a bit of work.

If there's interest, perhaps a group print could be organised. I imagine quite a bit of vinyl could be saved by "spooning" a number of door designs together.
Leroy, any idea what sort of printing costs we'd be looking at from your mate?
Cheers
