New THE370Z Decal Preview 05.19.10

AK370Z · 05-19-2010, 11:08 PM

History:
About 6-8 months ago, one of our forum member sent me a pm with a possible decal design idea.

Basically, he was browsing the Official Nissan Fairlady Z Japanese website and saw this drawing of the 370Z outline.

Click here to take a look: ----> Click HERE (make sure you have flash enabled in your computer). It's the first animation as soon as the page loads.

I thought it's a pretty neat outline and I liked the idea. About a months ago, I also stumbled upon some very early drawings of Nissan 370Z. This was one of the side outline they tried to maintain when they designed the 370Z.

Okay, so here are the Decals. There are two different fonts. Font 1 and Font 2. I personally like font 1. I want to hear your input.

Font 1

Font 2

Since it's the prototype, the decal is facing backward. I just posted it here so that you can get an idea. Production decals both will be facing the front window.

So what you think? You like the design? Let me know

I like it

Trips · 05-19-2010, 11:21 PM

Hey Ak, I like them though I think for my taste I'd would prefer something a little smaller so it doesn't take up that much window space.

Jesse_Hunter · 05-19-2010, 11:34 PM

Looks good man

MightyBobo · 05-19-2010, 11:39 PM

I like the sketch....but both of the fonts arent agreeing with me. I do enjoy the CURRENT font on...whichever sticker I get that has the outline of the car...

Thanks for your input. Changing the font like the silhouette one is not a problem. I just have to let him (decal guy) know.

Thanks for you input. Please note this will be the third design. This is NOT going to replace any decal. The first and second designs (with silhouette) are NOT going anywhere

jus in time for my nissan guam meet!!!! omg how much lol?

specZ · 05-20-2010, 01:45 AM

font 2 text is nice but as Trips pointed out, the decal is a bit large. Perhaps stretching it out lengthwise for a backglass application?

XwChriswX · 05-20-2010, 03:28 AM

I'm with you AK, Font no 1 for sure. Why would you put cute and bubbly lettering on a car thats covered in sexy angles.

vipor · 05-20-2010, 07:45 AM

Looks like my Nismo

Not a fan of the fonts though..

370Zsteve · 05-20-2010, 08:43 AM

I like the current one, (I have the one without a car silhouette). I suppose I could just cut the car out with a razor blade

if the fonts work for me.

jtroun · 05-20-2010, 10:21 AM

I'm not really feeling this one. The lines look too wide. Thinner would be better IMO.

Matt · 05-20-2010, 11:24 PM

Font1 looks good to me. I guess I'm in the minority.

labk888 · 05-21-2010, 12:21 AM

Looks great! I prefer Font 1.
