What I did is took a photo of the fender emblem, then I imported that to software that vectorizes it and I have a cutter that makes the letters.

That's cool. I'm really not knocking it but I do know first hand that they have knocked off a lot of our work from times past, and I even, unknowingly, fell prey to actually helping them to do it at least once :/

If you don't have time to do it right will you have time to do it over?

Are you offering them for sale? I'm not a stickers and emblems fan but that looks cool.

Well, I hadn't planned on it, but it's not a big deal to cut them.
The size is arbitrary, I just chose a size fairly readable but not crazy big. So if you're good with the size I could do it. Or I could go bigger/smaller but I think this is about right.
I'll have to write up how to apply them because you need to use transfer paper to get them on there correctly. Anyway, if you're patient no prob, just trying first to knock out the order on the rad stuff so I can pull the trigger on that order since rad is, I hope, on the way and I got this '97 sitting here looking good but all show no go right now.
DM your address I'll send as soon as I can do it.
Transfer paper is the normal way you apply adhesive graphics, it holds the letters in place relative to each other as you apply it. I'd call it tricky but not exceedingly difficult, there are just some things to watch out for, if you haven't done it before.

I'm not a stickers guy but I'll bet there would be some interest here, especially if you can do different colors.
