"986forum" decals?????Come on! - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

I'd be up for a decal, or plate frame. It'd have to be small and tasteful, though.

I'd buy a decal to place on my windscreen... Now who will make one?...Probably 986Forum.com in the silver porsche font would look nice.

On a side note...Whoever developed this site should include the porsche font in the text format drop-down menu above^^^, I wouldnt mind using that font.

the reason y there are so many people on the m3 forum is because those cars are pretty much made to mod, in many many different ways. the same cant be said about the boxster...yes there are things to modify, but nowhere close to bmw.
thats what i think

Funny you say that. All the M3 owners I know mod the heck out of them! Two of the three owners have either blown a headgasket or cracked a manifold doing so as well.

I would buy one... I like silver or black.. possibly laser or die cut for the windscreen.
Small and tasteful!
Keep us posted!

Yes Boggtown M3s were built in far larger amounts.

$56,195 This is the car that defined the sport sedan segment. The M3 has been built in relatively high numbers and will take some time to appreciate. This vehicle is a significant piece of automotive history. "

I used to host a local board (back in Lubbock, TX -Yeehaa!). "Lubbock Racing Scene" I had "LRS" decals printed up... they sold pretty good... I set up a paypal store and sold them directly from the forum/site.

It was a fun project, setting up surveys as to which color people preferred. I had some cool colors made too. Reflective black was the most popular... decals were black and reflected silver (arctic silver, dare I say?) when the light hit it just right. Very cool.

I do this in my spare-time (www.jesus-fish.com [although I've taken it up a notch and made magnets instead of just decals]). If Brucelee or whoever "in charge" wants to do this, I can help out... PM me.

Exactly, Travis! Exactly!

Not sure what you do for a living, but if this isn't it you may be wasting your talent!

Brucelee · 10-18-2006, 07:57 PM

Very nice graphic.

Thanks

ukchris · 10-18-2006, 08:30 PM

I like the sticker but if it's going to be a cut decal it will need to be a single color, otherwise things get pretty expensive pretty quickly. These probably need to be italic to match more closely but here's a start...

Chris.

blinkwatt · 10-18-2006, 09:12 PM

I love djomlas idea...but I would love to have a "top down" figure. If you did that I think it would be PERFECT! Or just a simple single "986forum.com" would do. Either way its clear,WE WANT A DECAL! Come on its free advertising for you forum owners.

djomlas · 10-19-2006, 11:34 AM

ask and you shall receive.
i did 3 versions: letters inside the car, and under, and german flag colors

I like that style. But try and work the outline like the 1st ever Boxster into the theme. Same style of outlining as you used there ^
I like the idea of the 928 lettering. I'd like to see the word Porsche in there somehow cuz it a Porsche 1st and foremost. Maybe have the car and the
'986Forum' intersect somehow with the .com in a smaller font sitting under the
the car.

how about :

986forum(PIC Here)
--PORSCHE--

ukchris · 10-19-2006, 11:54 AM

I like it, much better with the top down but I preferred the finer drawing in your first one, something along these sort of lines maybe:

Hope you don't mine me messing with your idea

Chris.

djomlas · 10-19-2006, 12:04 PM

i think we should make a poll and vote on it, and someone get them made and lets rock them already hehe

prOk · 10-19-2006, 12:43 PM

I can cut these out of vinyl pretty cheap if a final design is ever settled on

Can do a 6-8 inch wide sticker for probably 3/4 bucks.

Perfectlap · 10-19-2006, 04:02 PM

I just scribbled this freehand. I wanted the 986 to double as the grills.
Couldn't decide which wheels to fill in, the Carrera 5 spoke or the ones on
'93 concept car....Damn. forgot to add the GT3 seats
