So after browsing the web for a couple hours the only thing I could find for Subaru Sambar stickers were the AWD/Supercharger sticker(s) which to my surprise everyone wanted an arm and a leg for ~40 USD. After searching the forums I saw others stuck in the same situation. After looking around at local shops most wanted even more to at which point I said fuck it and did it myself. I now present to you my Knock-off Subaru Sambar stickers (see attached). The process was simple yet complex at the same time. I started off by taking as close and as centered picture of the existing stickers I had (aka what's referenced in the picture). I then used "Gimp" which is like a free version of photoshop and tooled out all the non needed stuff and fixed the broken letters. This was probably the most time consuming phase as it took ~4 hrs to get it looking as close as possible. The next step was to print the images out on printer paper to verify the images were sizeable/looked good. After the vectored files were completed I found out that I had to convert them to .png (meaning I did more work than necessary) and uploaded them into my Cricut Design Space software where I mirrored the image(s) and cut them with the machine. The only real hard part about the next step (putting on the transfer paper) was patients and a steady hand. Sadly, at this point in time both of those skills I was starting to lack. All-in-all the whole process wasn't that bad, but what do you all think? ~6 hr project from start to finish. Lastly, should I redo the super deluxe image as I feel its just slightly too big or not?
If you gave these guys the templates they could make some nice ones for you. They have Suzuki, Honda, Hijet and Daihatsu for now. https://www.etsy.com/shop/FreshMelo...-name&listing_id=1108634904&from_page=listing
Ye its essentially the same thing I made just way cheaper than $40 by making it myself. Also had to make the templates myself as there doesn't seem to be a place to grab the freely, so might as well just go all the way through with it.
I bought one of every Sambar decal that was still available from Subaru back a few years ago, and scanned them all to preserve the highest quality I could of each. The scans are on the Sambar Parts Spreadsheet under the Decals tab.
