NICO/Q45.org graphics...

[LongBeachQ45]

Do we have any yet? I wouldn't mind representing the club out here or driving by someone doing the same.

[Jesda]

What do you mean by graphics? Like bumper stickers and such?

[LongBeachQ45]

bumper stickers would betray the classiness of the Q. maybe some small window design or logo. I remember a few months ago someone was trying to create a sedan outline graphic.

[elwesso]

we have smal stickers that most of the Q guys put on the small back window behind the rear doors... Theyre probably an inch tall and a few inches wide...

[Jesda]

Send an e-mail to azhitman and he'll probably ask you to send him a self-addressed stamped envelope. They're slick little stickers and they have so far worn quite well (against weather, car washes, etc).

You can make your own q45.org sticker at cafepress.com if you'd like; you can make an original one or you're welcome use the images on the site. Its not a commercial enterprise so I dont bother with advertising, and most of the content is just NICO stuff in an organized format.

[AZhitman]

I think Q45.org stickers would be awesome... If we could get a design done, we have several vinyl guys on the other portals who'd do it.

I'd rock one fo sho.

[elwesso]

you mean like this?

[AZhitman]

Cool, but I think something "old-school" would be cooler.

Then again, I'm no designer...

What kind of car is that? Looks like a coupe to me, maybe a MBZ SL?

Its the profile of the F50 Q45, which isnt instantly recognizable because its not the greatest seller.

[Falkdesigns]

That's an F50? Sorry, but that is not close to the F50's profile. The window area is like an F50 coupe maybe.

The problem is, none of the Qs have much in common. The only consistencies are the clock [except 97-99] and the Q logo.

It's from the "redline" series of Infiniti commercials ... I alwya thought it hinted at the (rumored) super coupe they were going to offer.

[Falkdesigns]

Well, I made this in the past 3 minutes, and this IS an F50 profile, from an official Infiniti picture where it's parked in front of a building, and I just traced it and used a brush stroke on the outline. 3 minutes to make this, and if you take a side profile shot of an F50, this will lay over it perfectly.

[AZhitman]

Looks like a Chrysler Concorde with a faux convertible top.

[Falkdesigns]

Lay it over this in Photoshop and it matches EXACTLY. Like 100%.



I would have personally made the roof and body joined, but I left the gap because that's how they have their "F50".

My bro-in-law made this for Wes and Jesda some time ago. It was based right off the Infiniti Q logo. It was being tossed around as an idea for a site logo...or, something to that effect.

In any case... I can have him make something else for us. Ideas?

[elwesso]

im not sure how you could think that it doesnt look like an F50... Its supposed to be like it was a brush stroke... Regardless, 2 things come to mind: I wouldnt expect Kevin to rock a Q45.org sticker, and I would really like it if we could have one of a G50 profile or even a Y33 (even though the side profiles are very very similar)

Maybe head to head?

[Falkdesigns]

I get the brush stroke. I'm not trying to knock someone's work, but it doesn't look anything like an F50. I laid it over the F50 picture above and it's not close, especially the hood and roof, that leaves the trunk. It looks like a nice brush stroke MBZ SL.

Saw this in Scotland - kinda looks like the profile. This is a dead sexy automobile.

Haven't sat in the back seat of one yet, but I bet my head would hit the roof.

[66mgb]

You would be suprised. That interior is cavernous. You might hit your head getting in it however.

Hmmmm maybe I could get those headlights to fit my '92....where's my Dremel?

As far as Nico advertising goes, I have yet to receive any advertizing money since installing Nico license plate frames front and back!

[Jeff Williams]

Just have some chrome ".org" lettering done, and tape it to the trunk, next to the "Q45" emblems.

Simplicity is best!

[Q_SHIP]

I would love a Nico sticker if they were only more elegant/classy. Those stickers seem more for the guys in the sport impact type cars that nissan makes. No offense guys but the Q needs a more tastefully done sticker. Perhaps with some cursive writing of some type.???????????

[goody90q45]

I'm looking forward to whatever design y'all decide on. There's plenty of room on the side windows for the same size Q45.org sticker on top of or next to my NICO stickers. "Showing the badge" is a fun way to meet other NICO members.

I kinda like the idea of having chrome emblems made that match the script on the trunk that say ".org"I dont think most people would even look twice.

[ceningolmo]

How about this? This is an exact overlay of the G50.

[Jesda]

I like a sedan to be a sedan and a coupe to be a coupe, none of this silly trickery.

Creases and a flat, apparent rear deck give a four-door sedan a stately and professional look. This is why the old W140 S-class is one of the best-looking cars in the world an the current CL is one of the best-looking coupes.
