New Custom Stripe

Check out my new stripe. I have a customer that does graphics and we have worked on a couple of projects together. I asked him if we could put a custom stripe on "The Time Machine". He said he would hook me up. Well, he did.

In the photos the stripe looks more white than it actually is. The stripe is a silver metallic and it is very thin vinyl. At the last minute I asked if he would put an "HHR" above the stripe in the back and he did that perfectly. The lettering in the front part is actually "knockout" style. It is cut through the vinyl so the color of the car shows through.

I can't get over how different it looks.

If anyone is interested in a similar stripe I can hook you up. We just need to know the font, what you want (limited to space restrictions) and what color. The cost is $225 applied (You bring it to Massachusetts) or $110 shipped to your door.

Time Machine is a great name how long did it take you to do the Gyrocopter mod.

What happened to the rest of the stripe on the hood?

I like the HandelBT for TTM

But HHR is wrong font

Microgama Extrabold or Square 721 are closer but even the R is wrong

Heck does anyone know the HHR FONT?

BAHAHAHA!! I didn't even notice that the clothsline looks like it's attached. I just got home and quickly took some pics.

The TTM font is Hanzel. I picked that out. I told the guy I wanted the HHR on the back at the last minute. He didn't wait for a font selection. I don't think hanzel looks that bad. It's kind of like a tiny flaw in a diamond. It's enough to prove it's mine. Are you a "fontmaster?"

The stripe starts about a foot from the grill. That's where I wanted it.

No not really a master

I own a graphix company(wraps,large format imaging,custom lettering, that kinda thing) and still do alot of the designing when i`m not at the hospital.

I like things that "look" Factory

I`de still like to know the hhr font.

Font could also be HandelGothicBT for TTM !

The font for ttm is Hanzel. I'm not sure where I got it.

I would have liked to have used the correct hhr font but it's ok.

the place that did it with me is: http://www.agidesign.com/
