Glow is cool. My van had the Solid Gold (TM) emblem package so I'm heavily favoring gold

"sponsor type" decals for my quarter panel. Got anything like that? I'd much rather give my cash to a fellow GRMer than some random website.
Yes. I would also pay real American dollars for a Ricer Roll Call like this. Then put it on the MS3.
The Grocery Life would be fun too.

Gold is another possibility. I'm just a fan of glow in the dark. I may have two sets cut depending on how inexpensively I can get it done.

I unfortunately, do not. I'm sure anyone here with a cutter could make you one- I just do the designs. Eventually I would like to buy a cutter, but they are expensive, and when you get a whopping...8...count em 8...hours on the schedule- cutters are out of the question.
I have a cutter but suck at designs. Seth probably has more time than me though.
If I can figure out how to vector something, all anyone would need to do would be insert design into program, insert vinyl into machine, and push go. I can handle the rest. At this point, it is a machine that is holding me up from doing it myself.

I saw this on a minivan in NYC a couple of weeks ago. I desperately want one for the family-mobile.

There is a bunch of free software. I'm 99% sure you can download the software for the Silouhette cutters for free, make up a design, and then send it to whatever poor bastard you can talk into this. For instance, I can be that poor bastard, especially if you want me to cut you 100 and mail you the whole pile for distribution. I can also do the design if you can get me something that is drawn.
I use Inkscape for vector graphics work, and you know I avoid productivity software that costs money like the plague.

That might be the right move. Mail you the design and the vinyl and make it happen. If I get this done before I go up north, I may have a hat made. New era will make me anything I want as long as I bring them a DST file. Lemme shake this migraine and see what I can do.
With the cutter I use, I've found that having it trace an image produces the best results, meaning... it doesn't really matter what you use. MS Paint, Photoshop, Gimp, Inkscape, CAD software, a Crayon, a dry erase board and a cell phone pic, etc.
The most complicated cut I have done was almost straight off a browser screenshot
Yeah, that's what my buddy mo did with the last batch. Went from E36 M3ty pencil art to magical gold stickers with a decent camera. Makes my life easy.

Second Inkscape. I've used it to vectorize a few images with varying success. Works well for rasters without a gradient.
just downloaded inkscape so i can learn a new program in my infinite amount of spare time between running a business, being a dad and husband, and building racecars.
So, the eggs bacon ham thing. I'll do one, but I'm not doing that design, simply because I'm not taking credit for someone else's work. I figure out something.
Are you planning on using https://grocerylife.bigcartel.com/ again?
I missed out on the grocery bag sticker the first go around trying to pick stickers up in person instead of ordering them.

Maybe see if there's a way to do one that's just pork products?

Probably not, simply because mo is now 1600 miles away instead of the homie I see a few times a week. My plan currently is to redo the designs (a v2) if you will in both the bag and the long form, bribe someone here to stick a couple of rolls of vinyl through a cutter (me providing vinyl, obviously) and sell em old school. HOPEFULLY I'll have them ready in time for challenge if you go. If not, I know where the post office is.

That would be amazing. Please know I was in no way suggesting copying the original art, just something in that style. I can't wait to see what you come up with.

Your guess will be as good as mine. I cant wait to see either.
