it cant be that difficult to make them.

some clear fablon and inkjet print-outs, lots of cutting to do though.

I think most people lean about the forum through word of mouth which has been very successful thus far.

I had this (and a couple of others) made by an eBay trader.

Due to terminal dumnity this is the only one that actually fits my rear screen but is the one I prefer anyway. Only got round to fitting it yesterday following an abortive attempt a couple of weeks ago.

Had to cut it and fit in three sections due to the double curvature of the glass.

Apologies for the filthy car and crap photo.
Anyone interested step forward. Not sure if each member should order direct from the vendor or we should order a job lot, whichever option he seems to be a pleasant and helpful trader. If he can produce a decent sized order then the cost will be discounted proportionately.

I like the idea of something in a similar size to the Citroen prefers Total and
in the same position on the opposite side on the rear screen.

As a matter of fact I've designed a layout I tried for an alternate FCF forum
masthead somewhere but may take a while finding it as I backed up a load |
of stuff recently so will need to check my archive.

I wanted something large enough to be easily visible to people on the move who might be interested but I will admit that it could be a bit big.

Depends on the size of your rear screen too. The actual character height is not that great, there are a lot of letters to cram in there though.

I measured the screen at the bottom where it would have been rather more discreet but failed to see the housing for the rear wiper :)

Wow thats a big sticker!

Id like smaller version, say the size of the CCC stickers.

I have a CCC tax disc holder in my C5 and the Xm, but a FCF one would come in handy too.

Steve, think you need a new rear wiper! :)

To quote Alan Robson's granny - "If your going to have one you might as well have a big one!"
It doesn't look so imposing in real life - it is well documented that the camera adds 14 pounds :)

Yep, I have had one here ready to fit for over a year (bought a pair) and walk past it on my way out several times a day. One day it will make it as far as the boot, where it can keep the radio aerial company for a month or two :roll:

I was wondering about this, now it maybe a silly idea, :D but why don't we just use the forum logo. I was thinking somewhere about the size of a business card.

I also have a T-Shirt place near me and was thinking of expanding the logo to A4 size to put on the front, or the possibility of a smaller logo on a polo shirt?

Cup shouldn't be to much of an issue as most photographic places do them, along with mousemats, pens, keyrings, etc.

I suppose some banner ones could be made for those with less than 20/20 vision, no names mentioned........ :lol: :lol: :lol:

It doesn't take much searching to find one of those business card places who also print stickers, and they are all pretty cheap, some will print a small amount for free.

Here's one

and you can upload whatever you want printed on them.
