Our next meeting is coming up quickly... July 3rd autocross. I'm expecting to see 5 drivers (hopefully more) and a good number of spectators. I have put all the information on this thread and will send out an event request on Facebook ASAP:

Hey Vincent. The logo looks good, however, in my opinion, I don't think the "RX-8" and the line below it flows with the image to the right.
I think the designs should be more "cartoony" with solid lines as I think that would translate better. There should be some thought to the negative space and how that would look on the glass.
Here's an example of what I'm talking about:

BTW, are you coming out to our next meet? Don't worry if you haven't found your 8 by then, just come out and chill.

There are a couple 8's I have my eye on at the moment, but will need to find some time to go check them out. I'm actually not entirely settled on getting another 8, but it is the frontrunner.
Anyway, here are a couple more decal designs:

Those are great! I'm guessing the black would be printed as transparent and the white could be white or any other color? Do you have a vector file beansbaxter that you can post here?
One way to do it would be to post one vector file here and anyone who wants it can go and have it printed... That auto accessory place in Metrotown for example charges ~$7 for one of these. We should all stick to one of them however but change the color if we wanted to...
The other option would be to print 10 - 20 of them depending on how many people want one.

Hey cccid! welcome and congrats! Theres going to be a little gathering of a few 8's this weekend in Pitt Meadows if you are down to come! Theres and auto cross event there and some 8's from the rx8club are going...we also have a facebook group if you would like to join its called Vancouver Rx8 club there quite a few of us on there...

Am I the only one that likes the first one more? Anyway, bentiac, sent you a PM in regards to the vector file.
Hopefully you guys can get these printed up before the upcoming meet!

@beansbaxter they both look sharp but personally I like the second one better the one with the rotor! It would look good on the glass or B pillar I would think...
Any word on getting a 8 for yourself again? and what kind are u looking for?

Folks, dudes, and dudettes! beanbaxter is sending me the file... as he requested (and I agree with him) I won't be posting the file on the forum... we want to keep our logo unique. Let's also decide on the dimension so that we are all consistent. I think 3"x3"... anything bigger and it will lose its elegance... smaller and you can hardly see it.
I will send people the file in return for their email address. This way I also want to put together a mailing list for our club. So PM me your email address and I will have it sent to you as soon as I get it myself. I will also ask around to find the best quality / price.
Thanks beanbaxter... hope you find your soul mate rotary soon!
