Not sure whether anyone else wants one, but we've now listed the RR tax disc holder on our shop for £3.49 plus 99p postage, however if you spend more than a fiver, you can use disc0unt c0de rrdiscount to get free postage ;D : (Link removed until a design everyone likes is sorted) It's also available with silver text on a black disc, but if you have a different requirement please don't be afraid to ask!  |

Hmmm, TBH the above logo means nothing to me, it would have to be either the AA style one, or in the blue/black/white version format of the forum logo.
If I slapped that one on my car, folks would think I'm a Rolls Royce wannabe!
nice try though!

Agreed needs to be a recognised retro rides logo IMO, sorry,  but a custom one is the same price yeah? |

 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts  |

Hit me up with some of the things you'd like to see on a tax disc holder and I'll see what I can do then Custom, one off, tax disc holders start a £4.00 each. Obvioulsy if you have more coloursm it'll be more, but if you order more than one, it'll be less! |

As mentioned above, if it had the RR/AA logo, I'd be wanting one myself! Clickety Click to see the AA style RR logo (pdf format stolen straight from the thread in webstuff forum) |

If you want more of the stickers, in the above design, I can get them done |

^^^^^^^^^^^^^ spot on IMO (with a bit of tidying etc, e.g. the chequered lines extending all the way across top and bottom, and a black line around the edge or something like that, but I'm guessing that was just a quick sketch)

Perhaps only one chequered line for the sake of space? More like the original AA badge. Would but I'm waiting for fireworks to install!

Coolio... Well I'm off to bed, but feel free to have a play around. A couple of things to remember. A tax disc holder (well the image area) is 80mm accross, and these are made with cut vinyl, so things like lettering cannot be too small. Realistically, the smallest it can be is 12-13mm (depending on the font used) as otherwise it's: - Impossible to weed the vinyl - The adhesive area is too small to stick very well on the dots and so on... I think if you're going to want the chequered area, the cheque sizie is also going to have to be increased, as with it at the current size, you're looking at 1mm dots and gaps  |
