Default NEW Caliper Decal

I'm a signmaker and I made this decal because everyone has straight logos, and I thought about following the shape of the caliper, so here are the pics:




Tell what you think about them.

Default too round

The logo could be of proper dimensions. The text looks great though.

If I see this with the correct circled L, I'll buy it.

Yes! I could be, the first one's I made like you say, then I tried following the shape of the caliper I and like much more. If you want the first I did let me know. BTW some people told me that they are too big, what do you think about it. Thanks for your reply

i would like the front... if.... the logo was further apart from the word.. also if... the logo were made properly... the circle around the L isn't a complete circle.... other than that, great idea... just needs some fine tuning.

as for the back.. i think its too big.. and again, the circle isn't supposed to be complete.

Those look nice. What are you thinking of charging for a set of those and what colors are you making them in. Are the stickers heat resistant because the calibers do get pretty hot.

The Temperature Resistance is up to 194°F with no variation & up to 212°F for a 24Hours period. I don't think calipers will exceed those temperatures, but I just recommend to cover them with clear so they can be "overprotected". BTW the clear gives an extra shine.


Take a look of how I painted the calipers:

I PM you for the price.
