Shop Sticker

There was a thread going a while back about a sticker for us shop forum folks to sport on out MB's. Everyone seemed to think the shop wrench would make a sood sticker.
I said I would attempt a sticker, so here it is. Basically the same as the wrench emblem but a little different. I see it being 3 inches long and about 1 inches high.

Maybe we should come up with a location for everyone to put it. Rear window, drivers side on the bottom?

Let me know what you think.

Good idea.

I'd put one on my car.

I probably wouldn't have the car without this site!

Just a suggestion: If the font on the handle of the wrench was bold it would probably be easier to read.

Unfortunetly that is bold for that font how about this.
Maybe a different font if this isn't bold enough.

MercedesShop.com already has a sticker similar to that, they were available a few years ago. I put mine in the lower corner of the rear window on the passenger's side.

I like your design alot. I played with it ( I hope you dont mind) and tried to make the handle of the wrench look more like a wrench.

I like mj sid's font, but it could be darker.

Nice work everyone.

Nice, looks like the one's I already have on mine. Make sure they are static cling though, the other kind makes a mess.

If you decide to make them put me down for a few.
