So they SHOULD be cheap to produce, one would imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(incl postage)Obviously if I sell 100 of them I'm going to have a profit, mind you each sticker is taking 5 minutes of my time to pick out the stencil and package it.Happy to give back to the forum via donation by the end of it when I'm in the green.Any objections?

Definitely no objections to this.Are we considering different sizes? or just going for small side-window ones for the moment?EDIT: also are we considering different colours? or just white/black?

At first I thought it would be too small but I think it will be perfect, neat & subtle.And if we're all putting it in the same spot we all know where to look when we see a tooned ford on the road II agree wit what has been said above.I wouldn't mind having someone putting up a pic of one on the side window and then another pic of someone with it on their rear windscreen(of a sedan) for example.That way I know which one I want to get.I am actually tempted to get one for the side window for the sedan.Also could we pickup instead, to save on postage?
