Decal idea...

Hey all,

Just wanted to get some feedback on a decal design. Been searching everywhere to find just the right and subtle decal but was unsuccessful. Didn't want to stick M anything, stripes looked a bit tacky and overplayed, or nurburgring (never been there, don't track). So I made a logo that I thought signifies the last NA m.

Positive/negative feedback welcomed!

Any other ideas do you guys have? Or just against the whole decal thing? Regardless, thanks for the feedback. Maybe i'll think this through a bit more..

The font looks good, and the "a" missing the crosses comment, has to be purposely to rhile you up, but like everyone else, not feeling the idea.

Oh man, this is definitely a flop i guess.. Also, if anyone has any decal ideas or pictures of your decal, feel free to share. I searched decal threads and didn't find much.

I would only put my tuners shop decal, if any, on a street car. I used to have "R's Tuning" on my windshield, but now I just have "ESS Tuning" on the rear of the trunk.

Any others, no matter how skillfully made, are an automatic no-go for me.

Less is more here. Invest into some tasteful mods to stand out from the crowd. My 2 cents

This is sort of a psuedo-artsy-intellectual-purist statement that like only 0.000000001% of the population will understand, so what's the point?

"4.0L Naturally Aspirated" would look great in big bold letters across the windshield.
