if you can get me a clean enough pic of the logo I can probably make it 'camera ready' art work for you. all you would have to do from there is to take it to any screen shop, vynil shop, print shop, etc. etc. to get done what you want.

That's gotta be a pretty standard font...

Should be an easy project.

take a close, better picture. One that isn't very pixelated. Also, it looks like you enlarged those pictures... Post the original ones in the original size.

the pictures are from a magazine also so that is probably why they look the way they do

i'll search and see if I can find the font that the logo uses. If I find it would be an easy mockup

yea essentially thats pretty close to what i need jus the E and L need to be rounded off some and i wanna get similar dimensions for the center garnish sticker, and the one on the window i wanna make it silver with a black backround so it covers up the stock 240sx stickers from the outside lemme know how much this will run me thanks

i couldn't find the exact font. All i found is a Nissan font that sort of looks like it. Thats probley the same thing you came up with.

anyways it would be $10 for the pair of 2 color decals. I can probley round the corners like you asked.

ok i created this to look like it.

What do you think?

Also let me know what size you want it. I do not have a S13 so i dont know the measurements for the decal on the window. Let me know and i can get it shipped out to you ASAP.

Just so you know, the real "Sileighty" was written in a script font, not some MS Paint special. I mean just look at the abnormal pixelation around the word in the 1/4 window pic-- it's a chop and a horrible one at that. That is not real. Carry on.

measurements for windows are 6 1/2 in. length and 1/2 in. thick what i wanted to do would be make the font silver color and have a black backround of the sticker so it covers the old 240sx sticker so maybe make the back round of the stickers go a lil extra around the font maybe an 1/8 in. extra all around, and measurements for the rear i will do right now

this is actually the first picture i have seen of anything that looks like it could have come from nissan and have no other ways of finding the true thing as you say, got any proof besides the crappy pictures i have of any other font being used either way its not like it matters to me since it looks just like the font nissan tends to use so i'll stick with it, by the way the center garnish sticker measurements are 8 1/2 in. length, and 1 in. thick no need for black backround for the rear just silver letters is it thanks

I think the kerning is a little off. The 'Y' looks like it is all by itself.
