I am reproducing the Backflash rear window stickers for a few guys, a great 80's accessory, not sure if anybody already does them but I have had a few enquiries so I made made one up for my Montego. If you would like one made up for your car just let me know, I think the originals only came in red or white but I can make it in any colour if you want to match it up to your car. They will be made in a good quality 5-7 year vinyl and for a very reasonable £10.00 inc postage within the UK. Here is a photo of my Montego with it's MG Backflash.

That's curse word awesome!
What an idea - qudos to you. There's a Motormania factor near us that either
a. Still has some in stock or b. Would probably happily buy some off you, but without a hint of irony.

Hi Mate
i like the look of that is there any way you could do a mock up with the "i" in capital?
Also is it on the inside or outside of the window to stick?
Cheers
Ben

Hi Ben
it is a capital I, the style of the font used is a bold non serif type so there are no tails off any of the letters.
The stickers are cut in reverse so they stick on the inside of the glass but we can cut them normally to stick on the outside if you have tinted windows for example.
cheers Mark

I think you're really on to something here Mark. I remember these the first time round and think they look fantastic. Have been thinking about one for the metro but as its a 90's car not sure wether it'd suit. But I do like the look of this What do you reckon? Could you do something similar? Do you think its a bit on the cheesy side? Was just trying to think of something a bit different. A change from the normal "k-series inside" Intel style sticker most people have.
