$20 is for a pair of decals.

Anything sold in pairs has a title of Decals plural and is also noted as a pair in the item description.

Thanks for the info, Don! Great site and nice decals you have. I'll be ordering the "Wrangler" hood decals soon. Love the vintage look.

That sounds a lot more reasonable. I'll be ordering soon, but I was wondering what the dark gray looks like. I'm looking for a charcoal, almost black with maybe a little metal flake in it.

Thanks for the update.

There is a standard font that Jeep modified. My paint guy used the standard and I think it looked a little better. It looks like its in bold font. The Rubicon is painted on in this pic:

I used Jason's link and I am very happy with how my hood decals turned out....

The dark charcoal is definitely what you are looking for. Looks great on dark paint when you are after that subtle look.

Correct, but you need to have a program that can edit vector paths so you can manipulate the letters to get them looking correct.

At this point, I have made over 300 versions of rubicon decals for guys and I have every letter sorted out.

The rubicon lettering jason linked is not accurate.

To make accurate letters, you need to start out with ITC Eras Bold, take the curve out of the straight lines, take the slant out of the letters and stretch the result. Some very curvy letters like Cs and Ss need to be further modified to look right.

I started out with a rubbing from my jeep, and figured out what I had to do to get them EXACT and follow that process for making other letters that don't exist in stock.

I have seen a lot of people try to do it, and few take the time to come as close as I feel I have.

By the way, pixeldecals.com is my site and I think after all the mentions it's high time I purchased a vendor star. :innocent:

P.S. If it wasn't such of a PITA to make them exact, I wouldn't have given out my trade secret either. LOL!

Hey bud,

Would you be able to do a custom decal job for me? What I want is the word "RENEGADE" in sky blue with a dark blue outline. In the "rubicon" font.

I want it to look stock, but also pay homage to my dads CJ-7 Renegade.

Thanks, I look forward to hearing from you

Yes, Pixel decals has this figured out. I love how mine turned out

Woah, cool color scheme. Are the red stripes paint or stickers?

Thanks PIXELDZN for my new hood decals!!

Tried Installing font

Hi guys. I tried installing that font on my Mac but it does not work after putting into my font library. Shows up as an .ai file. Does not show as a font in either my Photoshop or my Adobe Illustrator.

Ole well.

First post -

brandsoftheworld.com also has vector files for most of the factory Jeep decals. I'm in the process of swapping out all of my silver factory decals to burnt orange on my '15 black Rubicon. IMO, hard to beat the black/orange combo.

Unfortunately, The Rubicon logo on there is a .cdr file (CAD file) that can't be converted to vector format. I'm a graphic designer, so the first thing I thought of when I got my new rig was making some custom die-cut logos/decals.

Thanks for posting up the .ai files for the Rubicon font...helps a LOT!

***EDIT*** FYI, for those that asked...those BOTW files and the one posted here in the .zip file are VECTOR files, not font files. You will need a vector-based graphic program (Adobe Illustrator or Inkscape (free)) to be able to use them.

I'll post some pics when my decal swap is complete.
