    Default Any clues where i can find some Adhesive Letters

    Hi, i had the idea to personalize my case a little more and Add the word "UNDEAD" (i add this to almost all my web handles) to the side of my case, but i didnt want to just paint it on or use crappy simple stickers, i wanted it to pop... literally... so i was just wondering if anyone knows any reliable places i could purchase some letters like the ones found on cars like this...



    or even better would be if i could just go down to an automotive accessory store and buy the letters individually...

    any help is appreciated

    I would definitely check with any auto stores in the area. Ebay is a good idea too. or you could go junkyard shopping too!

    I don't know how thick they are but I think Autozone carries a sticker set that you can put on the car. Or like billy said ebay. My wife was able to find of all things vinyl polka dots to decorate our daughters room when we redid that from the baby stuff.

    I do like the junkyard shopping you could probably match something good up.

    Google knows where they are and will tell you in a fraction of a second.

    Another option would be to try to think of a car make/model which has all of the required letters in it, then you could simply buy a replacement badge (or badges) from the parts dealer and swap them around. They usually come loose, with a template to keep them lined up and spaced, but there's nothing saying you have to use that template...

    Wish I could see the pic (blocked at work), I have a Cricut and could cut the letters out of thick paper for you and you could use a spray adhesive to attach them.
