I don't think "block or curved" letters is the question/answer. If you're having decals made at a graphics company they will make them whatever font you want. Do some playing on the computer or look through the images herein and on google images and find a font that jazzes you. Go with that.

I didnt mean block or curved as generalizations. I picked (2) styles in the jpegs above, just cant decide which and 1 is more block like and the other is more curved. As to why they both didnt show up as thumbnails, I cant figure that out. Both jpegs from same place.

Thanks though. I should have been more descriptive.

Sorry. I figured out how to post images instead of attachments. Should make it easier to view.

If it's on the sides of the hood where the Rubicon decal normally is, I'd choose the curved.
If it's on the front or top of the hood, I'd choose the block.

EDIT: The more I look at it, the more I like the block style.

Unless your referring to the urban jungle, I think it would be cool to get creative. Maybe make the letters more "jungle" like? You could use a font that looks like bamboo.

Hey, you know, it's your jk, do with it what you will. Screen name on a hood, I dunno. If I can make it to EJS this year I'll probably get a windshield sticker made with "mkjeep" on it so peeps know who I am on the forum, but it'd come off after the event. Not sayin your screen name is bad, just kinda cheesey to be on your hood, now if we were livin back in the 80's, it'd be da bomb.
