New tailgate decal design, what do you think?

I'm in the process of doing my van at long last and it's got, or rather, had, a manufacturers conversion plaque on the tailgate.

I didn't want to try and mask it because the vans already had a -poor- respray on the bottom half anyway so its got paint on the edges and it was stained and generally tired looking anyway. [Richard Holdsworth, address& phone number BTW]

So I've designed a couple of would-be replacements that I can email off to the local sign makers and get them to run a couple off. I could perhaps do some smaller ones to go somewhere on the lower front part of the doors perhaps. The red one was done as a transparency, i.e just letters/number whereas the 2nd one was done on a white canvas though it will be produced as the first one..

I'd appreciate any thoughts on how they look to you and suggestions, etc...

I like the 1st one the most, I think the allignment of Vi to the S makes it work better :)

Have you tried superimposing them onto a picture of your van?

No, but I did cut the larger one of the two out and stuck it on with sellotape and actually, it looked nice. I'll have to fine-tune the actual size but will wait until its all painted and refitted and they can be the finishing touch.

Nice one, both look great by the way. I am sure you will be happy with which ever one you pick.
