Personally I like it. What font it that?

 

Buffied font believe it or not.

 

I don't like that, but everybody has different tastes. If you want a stylized RUBICON sticker, I would go with a tribal style font, and then, I would think that would still be iffy. Personally, I really like the looks of a stencil type font as it reminds me of military style lettering on old Jeeps and even the Willys edition TJ.

 

hmmmm

Prot, you make a good point. That big blocky font is kinda cool.

 

Make it really personal...

VANCOUVICON or VANCOUBICON

 

I'm really undecided so opinions would help.

I vote against any kind of lettering or badging. I think the "RUBICON" on the front of those things is quite lame. Had I actually been able to take delivery of the Rubicon I ordered (for all I know, it never got built), mod #1 would have been to remove the lettering.

Good luck with your decision

Cheers!

For all of the proud Rubicon owners, please install the original rubicon decals.

 

BORING!!!!

Just gotta be different!!!

 

The hood is sweet and the textured decals will do just fine.

 

I'm for it to match the personality of the Jeep. If the "Jeeper" is the theme, then I say match it.

 

:thumbdown: My take on changing or removing the decals on the Rubicon is to just leave it as is. Now with that said, I like what Brent-f70 did with his. It really looks good on his black Jeep. :thumbsup:

 

I totally dig Brents too. It fits. I say if you must add the Rubi decals back then do something non stock looking. Go with the jeeper font. And I vote for rescue green so it is subtle.

 

I like the tribal lettering. It's ALL about making YOUR Jeep unique and expressing YOUR taste. That tribal lettering is awesome.

 

Not big on decals but I think what you originaly had in mind would look sick :thumbsup: with the theme of your jeep!

I kinda like the Buffy font, but then again I'm wondering how to find a George Romero style font, that looks like the Land of the Dead title for mine, so liking something Vampy isn't a stretch for me.

Plus I also subscribe to the anything different is good theory.

 

I say leave the RUBICON badging off of the hood and put it on the back. That way when you leave the others behind on the trail you will satisfy their curiosity. "What the Hell was....Ohhhhhhh!":wave:

 

I dont mind the Rubi stickers myself. I took the "X" off my last JK because the sticker was ugly. I didnt care if people knew I had an X, I just thought it looked goofy.

 

one guy on the other forum named his "RUBIDOO". I thought that was pretty cool :thumbsup: and hated that I didn't think of it 1st :thumbdown: ....not real big on copying others nicknames.
But I think that is is the nature of Jeepers to customize their Jeeps!! Other than maybe a Harley name one other vehicle with the history of available aftermarket parts....customizing is just part of the "Jeep Thing"

Here is a closer look at the texture.....had a couple PM's asking for it

now your thinkin....not real fond of that font though....BUT hey it aint my jeep its yours so :thumbsup:

 

REAPICON

there you go....:thumbsup:

 

X2:thumbsup:

 

boobicon =)

 

And someone on another forum I believe had Rubitron done, with an Autobots logo above the Wrangler.

 

Did it have spinners too?

 

I think it would be funny if someone did up a JK in a "GTA San Andreas" theme. All blacked and chromed out - use the San Andreas font style as necessary (for Rubicon and whatever else) - put some nice air brushings of drug deals, gang bangers and cops getting punked. Of course, it would also need the hydraulics, so you could simulate the car dancing mission. That would be slick

 

i like the ones that kinda blend in but you can still see them. on my old TJ i repaced all the decals with flat black ones (it was a black jeep) and i think it looked awesome, i just need to find flat rescue green now.

 

My wrangler is black, and I've got the Wrangler Unlimited decals on there in black also. I didn't quite want to remove them, but they definitely don't stand out much now.

 

Or you could cut the word Rubicon out of the sheet metal of the hood.

 

Not sure if your joking or not but I actually think that would be a good idea!!! You could then put a mesh screen behind it and have the cooling effect of the AEV. Problem would be structural integrity.....Thats a lot of open space

 

I like the textured decal and matching the body color. It would not be conspicuous but would show up as a glint in the sun. Sort of like a "ghost" decal.

 

What about using Bedrock font? http://bedrock.deadsquid.com/funstuff/computer.php
