Odd decal wanted (UPDATE)

Post by Zack »

This may seem like an odd request but I think it would be interesting. Can anyone do a Mini Cooper decal that looks like the John Cooper signature but instead do it so that it says "John 3:16" but in the same font as the signature. I think it would be pretty cool and something that would catch someone off guard expecting the John Cooper signature.

I know Todd can do that, it is just a matter of getting in touch with him. Try hitting him up on FB. If not, I have had success with on-line graphics websites for custom orders. I will look for that info and pass along to you.

I may be able to make something like that. Do you know what font it is in? I have a machine that can cut vinyl (its my wife's craft cutter). I'll see what I can do.

Easiest option might be to use the john part from his signature and then mimic the 3:16 part in Photoshop

The decal signature is an exaggeration of his real signature. His real signature is much more stylized.

No. I have a friend who said he could try to make one on photoshop, when he isn't busy with school work. Wonder if someone else would be able to do it.

Zack did you get those decal installed yet? After meeting Zackattack28 on friday I learned so much more about fun intersting things about Minis I had no clue about. Thanks Zack he showed me his Mini eyes they looked like so much fun I got up this morning and made my own. There are so many options I would be glad to make some for anyone else who wants any.

Pics will be tomorrow. It's dark now. I will also include a pic of the car with the new stone guards. The new wheels will be installed in a few weeks. Waiting to hear back from PdMotorsports about those new Hankook's I want. Haven't heard from him yet. Would rather buy from him than buy from Tirerack or Discount Tire but I'm being patient.

What does everyone think? Are the stickers offensive? My mom has expressed concern that they would offend people.

Why would someone be offended by your personal choice of religious expression?

When it comes to cars, the only thing that's important is that YOU like it - IMHO of course.

^^THIS^^

I had a Darwin Sticker on my car that people told me was offensive. My response was for them to pound sand. I've had my "Infidel" sticker on for sometime now and most everyone likes it.

Hell, the only thing I know about John 3:16 is the silly people during football games holding up signs with it on it.

I think you should get it the actual size of the John Cooper sticker so that way it really offends people. 8)

What do you think, Zack?
You really should have your head examined. It's an intelligent decision.

I can't think of another car that comes with more opportunity to make it yours than a MINI. You do what you like, you paid for it. :)

At a car show, I was told by someone looking at my car that it was "against the rules" to put chrome on a MINI. I've looked all over my car, but never did locate that Acceptable Modifications Rule Book so I just do what I like to my car. :chili:

Haha. When is it against the rules to put Chrome on a Mini? They came from the factory with chrome pits on them and even offered a chrome package lol. I wanna meet the person that said that and slap them silly.

Ordered larger John 3:16 stickers from Hootie. And my new ROTA RB's will be mounted onto my new Hankook Ventus V2 Concept's soon. Thanks again to Justin for those tires.
