    If you or someone you know in the Los Angeles area can make these decals, PM me!

    Why does Hawaii and Arizona get decals and we don't? We like it that it may never rain again in SoCal, more dry river beads and gravel mountain roads to dig up without getting stuck! Why pay to have someone to remove your lawn and put in drought friendly plants when we can just do some doughnuts in the front yard?

    I was fooling around in Illustrator today, seeing what i could do with the lines on the stock logo. I found a font pretty close to the California Republic flag, but if anyone has a font that matched the Toyota TRD font, i would like to try it out.

    I anyone has the ability to do multi color die cut vinyl, i wouldn't mind partnering with you to make these. Im all open to suggestions to improve the design and wording. Let me know what you think!

    First attempt, might need to rework the lower corner of the N. Not feeling the line of empty space.

    Cause California is so awesome that we even attract trolls from other states forums.

    The person I have worked with to do decals can only do single color vinyl.

    I would like to find someone locally that can produce these two or three color decals. Ideally i would want to produce at least two designs here, and offer them by the pair for $10-15 shipped.

    Keep in mind that after the cost of Paypal and postage, I would be valuing my time including the time to design these at a dollar or so, so its not like i would be making anything off these.


    Please vote up top so I can know what to work on.

    I like this. :) I think I softened the bear enough to cut for vinyl.

    It would not be a problem to change the colors to the two tone grey youre talking about. My only concern is that i havnt gotten as large a response as i was hoping for.

    I still would like to find someone locally that i can work with to produce these, as then i could possibly make small runs of 5 or so pairs of each. That would let me cater to what more people want without having a order of 20 or so people. The guy ive worked with before is on the east coast and has a minimum on each design 20.
