All right, you're in.
(Not that I have any authority here, but the main criterion seems to be "have a Star Wars car", and you've got that...)
Very nice! What's your source for the numerals on the side and hood? I like them much better than the Braille-ish dots usually given as Aurebesh numerals.

Hello, I made the font thru an old progam I had called fontographer, now I find the font all over the place.
I have a starwars monopoly board and the font was shown on a small paper in there, I think there were a couple numbers and I worked out the rest.
I have a buddy who does the vinyl graphics for race cars (easier to repair when they rub fenders) I worked up what I wanted in Adobe Illustrator and then we run it thru his cutter.
The troopers I scanned and took to a sign shop, I used to have the ones from '96 (Taco Bell) the window clings, but after nearly 10 years they are crumbling.
I get a lot of thumbs up from people and a lot of rolling eyes...(can't please everyone - only yourself)
Sweet, I'm in!

I'll have to go searching for more Star Wars fonts -- I know there are a bunch at EchoStation.com, I'll have to inspect them more closely. I'll also have to dig out my SW Monopoly and look at that.
It's scary that the Special Editions were almost ten years ago, already.

I could burn you adisk of fonts, if you'd like. I think I have several different.
Whats really sad, I stood in line 3 times in 77 to see the movie. saw it and ran back into line...I think that makes me as old as Obi-Wan maybe Yoda!

Very nice... between you and Damien's Vader Staff Car, you have the makings of a fleet. Welcome aboard!
Plus, I don't think we have too many actual 501st members. TK-5967 at your service, XO of the Southern California Garrison.
