what way can i apply same design onto 2 different sides?
Any suggestions for this one?
the recess are quite deep on the passenger door, so I dont really want to lay vinyl over it as it will distort the owners name (P C Lavin) But I cant really see an alternative.
Why design 2 sides different anyway (probably so a window could be fitted?)Peter

peter,
the new Hino cab is a b****, i did one a month back with the same problem, had no option but to go over the recesses, looked ok, customer was happy enough, Told him to buy a Scania next though. easier to sign :lol1:
The recess is there for a window. the silly thing is it an optional extra :lol1: -
Obviously designed by a disgruntled former signmaker Peter. What a nightmare, cant see a solution to that.

That’s just nuts Peter 😮 Why would they do that?
Our local vehicle manufactures are exporting to country’s that drive on the wrong side, so they’ll do a mirror image of the vehicle, never seen one that is different from one side to the other.How much more expensive is that to tool up for I wonder? Is the door configuration different in America I wonder?
Sorry for the dumb questions. Its late here….. 😳
You are going to have to bite the bullet and go over the crease tho, needs to match both sides eh..
-
We have to deal with that issue all the time, especially on the big rigs.
(opposite door tho)
😀
I would just design the name is a straight text, on the traditional side, and simply make the recessed side version a bit smaller. I do that all the time, and the customer understands.
Or be creative with your placement without it looking too weird.
Love….Jill

Thanks Jill and Terry for the ideas, I have now sort of found a solution, I will post If the customer likes it.
Just goes to show, "designers, signs or trucks, who needs ’em" 😉

Just get him to sell the damn thing and buy something else that’s easier for you to put signs on 🙄

In the US we have the same things with the different doors except our curbside one has it since we drive on the opposite side :lol1: There is usually a window where that deep recess is.
