Title: MK3 Golf Window Sticker - Shady fudged up...
Post by: Shady Pioneer on 05 March 2009, 01:11
Some of you may know I'm going to create a window sticker for us MK3 owners, saying DUB-TUG SQUAD. What I'd like for whoever would like to it give me ideas on what they think it should look like, don't hold back on what you think as this is for you.


If you wish to, provide stickers you like the look of already, or posters or designs you think might go well. Here's a VERY early concept lol! Please ignore colours for now as it doesn't matter until the end, I want the main body done first :)

Oooh do I see a photoshop competition coming on? :grin:

Could get designs up until a set date, then people could vote for the best?

Just an idea :smiley:

I don't mind a competition, but depends if people want to do one themselves? LOL!


I was thinking something like the etched glass looking ones that JV has on sale for the forum:

Well I wouldn't have it as a rectangle, that example I put up, Imagine the white background gone, so it's just the text in the window, the same was the etched GolfGTI on is. But I will experiment and put up a few ideas to see what people like.

I don't think it's a case of useless input lol! You've made a fair comment :)


I do think however that Dub-Tug would be appropriate as if would be an inside joke for us MK3 owners on the site, and if we passed a MK3 with it on, you can bet all your money they are on this site :P


Although if people want we can have something else, discuss, we need more input from other users as well.

No.


LOL! I'm not doing this for profit. Whatever it costs to get these made up I'll sell for the divided cost. So if they cost £40 to make 20. Then They'll be £2. :)

Incorperate a VW sign somewhere, and make it lower!

Also, when you find a place, get me a fail sticker too. PLEASE!
Title: Re: MK3 Golf Window Sticker (DUB-TUG SQUAD) - Give me ideas :)
Post by: Shady Pioneer on 05 March 2009, 17:08
Cheers pal, I thought maybe the outline of the MK3, from the side (as I've seen front and rear ones done before) then I was going to mark up so you can see the windows, and maybe the wheel arches. Change the font as well.


Josho, what do you mean make it lower? Do bare in mind any white back on these examples I do won't be on the sticker, the sticker will start from the outline of for example the car.
Title: Re: MK3 Golf Window Sticker (DUB-TUG SQUAD) - Give me ideas :)
Post by: Josho on 05 March 2009, 17:11
I mean, make the wheels up more, so there is less gap between the bottom of the wheels and the splitter. Like a -150MM drop.
Title: Re: MK3 Golf Window Sticker (DUB-TUG SQUAD) - Give me ideas :)
Post by: shepgti on 05 March 2009, 17:25
try defining the arches on the shillouette?
Title: Re: MK3 Golf Window Sticker (DUB-TUG SQUAD) - Give me ideas :)
Post by: Ashley on 05 March 2009, 19:13
looking good so far shady -

what about making the wheels white, meaning just seeing arches?
what about the outline of the side trim?
also what about outlining the bumpers in relation to the car and indicator holes?

could also put the 'dub-tug' in the space below the rear of the car, and vw logo on rear quarter?


alll just ideas  :tongue:

If anyone is good at drawing, you can scan them in and edit them with Photoshop easy enough. Or get a side shot and cartoonize it.

That was constructive :) criticize it which is what I want. I can always add a different slogan, depends on what people want. What to stop me putting "If it ain't rubbin' it ain't Dubbin' " or something. How about some of you give some suggestions on what to put on it? :)

+1 on the square side repeaters too  :grin:

can we have "Low n' Slow" for the 1.4 variation?  :rolleyes:

as for font - how about something like 'Arial Black' or 'Bookman Oldstyle' ? A kinda block capital font would look cool imo

Hey Shady Pioneer & all other fellow Mk3 owners out there.

I thought that id throw in a suggestion - i know that you've kinda got an idea and sticking with it but more input surely cant help - can it?  :smiley:

Find below a quick sample that I slapped together in Photoshop, going on a totally different direction of design.

Any who ill stop jabbering on so take a butchers and see if this helps if at all......

just an idea for the moment... would need all the outlines all the same width to work

tried to keep it as simple as possible... perhaps an evil smiley would work?

As you said you didn't like the Dub-Tug reference, how about making it:

VW logo > Outline = :)

i quite likes that... might look nice on a window in just a white outline if you know what i mean.. ie. black on the drawings would be white and white space on the drawings would be see throoo

and poss sans border.. but you don't need to mock that up - posting the sticker up sans border before didn't look right - maybe, if you were to run with this idea... have it printed with border... and people could remove it prior to application if they wanted

if i have any other ideas I will post em up
Title: Re: MK3 Golf Window Sticker (DUB-TUG SQUAD) - Give me ideas :)
Post by: Shady Pioneer on 07 March 2009, 00:31
I don't think it would look right with a border once printed tbh, like you say. It looks fine on here but if it were on the car, it doesn't need to stand out on glass as it'll do that anyway.


Defo get your ideas down man if you have anymore :) I do like this one though, no words needed, but it says it all :)

If I'm honest, I'd quite like something like that but then there are complications involved. Firstly would JV mind? Also it takes sales away from his window stickers which I don't particularly want to do (it's only fair lol). Dave, PM him and link him to this thread and explain ;) the worst he can say is no :P

I'm tryna give the GTI alloys a go but the feckin' shape of them is proving difficult to replicate in the same manner as the BBSs. I'll still give it a try but there's nothing stopping use from claiming the sticker to being an Anni sticker ;)

Well me you and Guy are gonna want one for sure lol! What with our wheels being the designs lol! I'm still struggling trying the GTI rims sadly. If this is the design we go ahead with, it'll be best suited in the rear windscreen I'd imagine, on the left hand side so the wiper doesn't get in the way of it. Don't worry though, it won't be too big, I'm gonna print off some paper ones to see what sizes look good or not :)


kells - Interesting in putting it on the car or in the garage? :P

if it has the VW logos as what iv quoted it will go in the rear window 100%, but i dont want it with BBS rims or anything, must have the VW logo for me :)

Well, here's what I'm thinking, I get 2/3 versions of it done, and hold a poll. I'm not sure which I want tbh at the moment, I do like the BBS alloy ones but the VW wheels just say it all :D


Give me time to get it sorted and I'll see what I can come up with.

you only like the bbs one as those are your rims, not everyone has/wants BBS, the VW version covers all of us, Generic so to speak, so this is how it should be done..  i could be saying here, get me some vith D90's, but i aint so selfish  :grin:

seriously i like the VW version, thats where my money is so if you have them done im in, but we need to work out how big they will be, we will come to that when we decide the final sticker

im gonna sit tight now and see what happens :cool:

Why not do the outline of the front of the car, then you can have the VW badge on it?

And there'd be no "3 or 5 door" arguments ;)
Title: Re: MK3 Golf Window Sticker - VW wheels or BBSs? Have your say!
Post by: Ashley on 09 March 2009, 19:28
outline of the front of the car would be cool - would be opposite to them low and wide stickers you get of the back.

means you could make it low with wide non-specific wheels (because you cant see them!), have non-descript headlamps meaning you're satisfying dual chamber and CL lights and you can use the number plate as somewhere to write!

I know you don't like other peoples ideas but as a simple plain sticker, what do you think, the colours could be tweaked if needed.

Hope it is ok to use the club name.

It's simple, although I don't think it should end with MK3 as that could mean anything, at least if it's Golf anyone on this site can then buy it. :)

I can't please everyone unfortunately so I'll go with whatever I feel most people are feeling, those that don't approve can have their idea made up separately, that way people can get the best of both worlds and everyone's happy. :)

i reckon just go with whatever looks the best in your opinion, and what BB said basically.

since you're after constructive critisism, for the front view sticker could you invert the colours of the vr6 splitter, maybe making the middle section grey rather than what would be black and put in the lower grille detail? might work?

My only point and people seem to have missed this, is that the more complex the sticker is then the more expensive it will be to make and sell hence why I suggested a simple version.

The front view is ok but it will use a lot of vinyl to make and unless it is the right size a lot of the detail will be lost.

Once again I am sorry for only trying to help.

It would seem that way :) at least by the looks of things there can be no arguments, whichever one does win, that's what I'm going with and those will be the ones I sell on. As for text on it, I asked jv is I can put the site on there and he didn't have a problem with that so I'll use that instead of anything else. Again, no more arguments with that :)

havent really been paying attention to this thread. but as for the stickers themselves, they will be printed, so doesnt matter on the design, how complex, etc. thinking interior stickers, unless most want an exterior sticker?

not sure what design won, but it should have some writing on it. i reckon the golfgti.co.uk logo need to be on it, so its like a mk3 version of the site sticker :cool:

Title: Re: MK3 Golf Window Sticker - Poll results, side on view won!
Post by: Shady Pioneer on 11 March 2009, 21:26
I've already toyed with the idea of using the site logo but it doesn't work with the sticker, however I've got an idea I quite like for the site address to be implemented within the car, just trying out some other fonts to see if anything else works but this is gonna be simple yet effective. Sit tight people :)

its those that have the white backing card on one side which u remove then on the other it has white paper, you press the stick onto the object rub the white paper bit then pull the white paper off which leaves the sticker in place...make sense???

yeah, just never heard of it being called that before. only problem with that way is when you want more than 1 color, makes it more complicated to do and wont look as good as if i printed it. plus to get more colors, you need to layer it, and when you stick on the inside, the layers wil build up and the sticker isnt flat anymore. what happens is, print the sticker reverse onto clear vinyl, then back it in white vinyl. so the black parts are printed and the white gives it a solid background. then machine cut out around the car outline of the sticker. so you get a car shaped sticker. :afro:

anyway, shady designed the sticker, so how is it taking the pi$$ out of jv. would never even think of doing that. they wont be sold on the forum, just sending to those on here who want them.

di cut is the propper name like.. haha, i do alot of work with printers in my line of work, also i think the sticker dont want no more than 1 colour anyhow or it will just look too fussy, di cut or whatever you want to call it would be the best option as their would be no clear backing etc and tje colour will be more defined

the ones you are on about doing are just those standard print stickers, i had 1000 JOY ones done for my brand (got one in my rear screen)


well its up to you guys  anyhow innit, them standard stickers your on about i can get done very cheep tho....

its my job, and i never heard of di cut, must be northern thing :D

printed stickers wont have any clear background and will look much more professional. if the car outline and wheels, etc are printed in black, when the clear vinyl its printed on is backed in white vinyl, the black will show up.

can just have the sticker done like kells is talking about too, just single color. this is done differently and wouldnt be printed, just cut out of vinyl and applied using application tape. when shady has got the artwork ready i can make up samples and some pics of what each will look like and we can vote.

shady - are the rear lights needed to make it look right? how does it look without them?
remember if they go too small, you will need to make the text bigger. ohh and the "white bits" that the glass will be, wont show up that well. i still think the "white bits need to be black, with the background white, rather than silver. can do it wth different colors, but i think it need two colors. just another thought to add to the discussion.

just email the design when its done and i can make some samples ;)

we use coral draw, better for our applications. photoshop would make sense i guess for your apps.

When I can be arsed get round to doing it  :grin: :grin: :grin:


I've had a lot of other coursework to do so haven't had a chance to refine this atm, they won't cost much, I'd imagine £3 - 4 delivered.

As a ‘New’be’ I haven’t said much, but when I saw the proposed ‘DUB TUG SQUAD’ tag for the Mk.3, connotations of Hip Hop and Gang Culture sprang to mind - I just had to vent my spleen! Thanks but no thanks, sorry for any offence – it’s probably my age, being a wrinkly!

If you’ve got it flaunt it – just like the big boys who drive those Italian red things.- Ferrari, Maserati, Alfas all have their little foibles; Prancing Horses, Tridents and Serpents, even the lowly Fiats are sporting Scorpions again – now that’s passion.

Having previously owned and driven all of the above (complete with wing embellishments) by far the most practical of all is my little 16v Mk.3 ‘Anni’ which wouldn’t part with and 33 ‘Cloverleaf’ in a reasonably close second place.

Cast off the Teutonic austere mantel (even BM’s had ‘Bavaria’s’ and ‘Alpina’s’ and Mercs are in bed with Big Mc) and inject a bit of Passion – take clues from the VW Motorsport and Wolfsburg inspired era. A badge for today with reflections of a proud heritage and an inspirational R32 style future - why should they have all the fun? Stick it on the wing, tailgate inside or out - etched, coloured, sweatshirt, ‘T’ shirt – whatever/wherever it doesn’t really matter!

The illustration shows a ‘first stab’ on the wing of a MK.VI only because it’s the only side on wing pic. I could lay my hands on a short notice, retrospective thanks to ‘VWKev’ for the use of his nearside wing. It would of course read Mk. III in the flesh. Rant over now back to the closet - What do you think?

dont think you understood  the dub tug name, it has no links with anything gang based but was created after others mk's refering to the mk3 as a tug boat..

also if you own ferraris and maserati's etc why on earth do you have a mk3??? :undecided:

as for the sticker i wouldnt have one on my dub, maybe on my ricer rocket though.

dont think you quite understood what the sticker was meant to be. Its all in name of the dub scene i guess, just something to show your part of golfgti.co.uk's mk3 section. like shep said really.

i also second that shep

i wouldnt have one on my dub

Right, I'm not gonna lie, I've really f**ked up.


Upon reinstalling my Mac, I backed up all my important data, music, photos, documents, you know there score. Well basically, the files I for this were stored under Photos, and where I backed photos upto, seems to have vanished! Off the face of the planet, I do not know why, where, when or how, but it's gone. As a result, all the work I'd put into the template for the side on sticker design has gone.


Now I know there are jpeg versions here, but they are limited in size and I don't have the layers like I did with a PS file. So I'm stuck on what to do...
