Hey guys...

I'm no very good at design..actually, I have zero knowledge but I'd like your help.

I'd like to see some designs with the following text:

な に だ っ て ば よ?!

If it helps, it reads "what is this/that?" with a certain dialect to it, effectively, it could mean "what the hell is this/that?!"

Go nuts with it and please post here or PM me.

Thanks,

I just realized it's wrong section as I pressed the button. Can a mod please move this to the proper section?

It's Japanese Harigana.

な に だ っ て ば よ?!
Actually... if you literally "translate" it to romanji.. it's: Nani datteba yo?

I'm only in my second semester of Japanese, so I don't know what the hell that means, except of course "nani" for what and "yo" is kind of like, "I tell you what..." it makes it all authoritative and can be interpreted as rude...

You are correct.

That's all up to you. I have no specifics really except that it will be going on a 97 black kouki.

narutard ka?


more specifics will help. you're giving an artist a blank canvas and telling him to paint you a masterpiece for your tastes off the top of his head. not that easy.

Preferred in White or Gray color.

Car: 97 Black 240sx

I'm considering the following placements: hood, side skirts, rear bumper, windshield.

Does that help? Sorry for being so vague earlier.

I think what Taniguchi means is what "font" or "style" are you going for

Just cause its Japanese characters doesn't mean it can be stylized in more than one way

So, maybe you want it "graffiti style" or "block style" or "thick style" etc

The location on the car and the color you want to print it in isn't extremely vital

In addition, if its a sticker, then it needs to be in Adobe Illustrator format, or something similar (.eps, etc)

And if its in that format, you can extrapolate to whatever size you want, since its vector

8. limited slip diff, but instead of writing diff in katakana is hiragana for debu which sounds similar but means fat or chubby

1. Curve road entertainer
2. Item not for sale
3. It reads "noukou-butai" The words "noukou" nor "butai" doesn't exist as it's written on the sticker. I'm not sure about this one. I'd translate as "touge unit."
4. It reads "noudou-kyoudou-kumiai." The word "kyoudou" doesn't exist as it's written on the sticker. "Noudou" directly translates to country road, but in this case, most likely touge. Effectively, it translates to "crazy touge (driver) society."
5. Exhaust efficiency up
6. Intake efficiency up
7. Fighting Yamaguchi dog
8. Limited slip fatty
9. Cooling efficiency up

Where did you get these stickers? You want to hook me up? :naughty:
