JOMJ87 Posted August 13, 2006 Author Share Posted August 13, 2006 Thanks Freerocknok now its even harder to decide what to do :mad: .

I can not figure otu what to do :wall: someone please help or talk me into doing one oe the other of ALL the above designs. HELP!!!!! Cole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4play Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 I think I like putting the MJ-87 on the front 1/4, but either area could look good. However (on the front 1.4) I think it may look better moved forward a bit, more centered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xacto Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 I like a stencil look: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOMJ87 Posted August 14, 2006 Author Share Posted August 14, 2006 I am using stencils that look like that but i think they are a little smaller. It seems like so far everyone is leaning towards the front fender so today after work i will check here one last time to see if any better arguments are placed and then i will start on it.

JOMJ87 Posted August 14, 2006 Author Share Posted August 14, 2006 Do yall think the star should be bigger and centered in the door like the pic on this page or is it fine how it is. Now that i see how it looks with the big one i like it better. :oops: Cole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOMJ87 Posted August 14, 2006 Author Share Posted August 14, 2006 This is my favorite so far it looks the best i think. I also added another idea to the mix the small star on the back lower quarter what ya think. Cole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 The choices are endless so it's important to do what you like ('cause you're the one who has to stare at it every day). Try hunting down a couple of old-iron military websites and see what has been popular over the years. I plan to add plenty of smaller stencils to my truck (when and if I get around to painting it). Things like "step here" and "danger" where applicable. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOMJ87 Posted August 14, 2006 Author Share Posted August 14, 2006 Actually i was going to put Danger near the muffler And doing that on some spots but i can't find any examples on the net so i think i will go with an airplane pic to base that off of. I have also debated putting the gross wieght and center of balance markings on it. To many designs to choose from but i know i am doing the MJ-87 And prob USA. I am also redoing the star to big bigger and more centered in the door since it looks better that way in the pic We will see what happens. :popcorn: Cole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DansGreyMj Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 do this one but more forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOMJ87 Posted August 16, 2006 Author Share Posted August 16, 2006 Are you tlking the lettering? If so do you think mid fender well or further. Cole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORCA Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I'd personally avoid that little star on the rear quarter panel...too many stars...it's not the TEAM AMERICA truck or something... :USAflag: Or is it? ;) Oh and you should take your gas cap cover door thingamajig off..i've always thought that looks alittle militant (which is a good thing :nuts: ) It'd be smart to then get a locking gas cap too. Anyway, i've been a huge fan of olive green paint, and yours is freaking awesome! keep up the good work mang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOMJ87 Posted August 17, 2006 Author Share Posted August 17, 2006 Thanks and no i will not be putting the small star i talked myself out of it yesterday when i was planning with some masking tape. Right now iam going to add the lettering if i can find the style stencils i want to use. :mad: Still planning and mocking up a couple other ideas so we will see what i go with later on. Thanks for the props I am glad some guys appreciate the paint some of the guys onbase think its stupid cause its not a MB or any kind of M- series jeep But i told them its a dam MJ :brows: Cole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 leave the star on the door, put usa on the fender in front of the mj 87, and put a large star on the hood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spencer 97tj Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 I have cut stars for people before if you guys don't want to paint them, the flat white vinyl works well.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeepthing07 Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Olive Drab is becoming a popular color for MJ's lol I was thinking about painting MJ-6 somewhere on mine. In the spirit of the CJ models but 6 meaning 6 foot bed. anyone else call MJ's MJ6 and MJ7's? i think it could catch on if not :brows: Nice MJ-6 btw JOMJ87 :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOMJ87 Posted November 9, 2006 Author Share Posted November 9, 2006 Thanks alot yours looks great with the black on the bottom. ;) Spence is working on the decals for mine (mj-87 and USA) Iam sure he could work you something up if you wanted just throw him an email from http://www.Jeepsticker.com He does great work.

JOMJ87 Posted November 16, 2006 Author Share Posted November 16, 2006 OK I am bringging this back up because the paint and decals are done for now. Spence Hooked me up with some custom decals and they are great they worked out very well and Spence has out done himself. They are ecaxt to what I want and fit just like the photochop above someone done when I first talked about the letter. Here are the pics. What do you think of her. Cole And he even sent this one along and I LOVE it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spencer 97tj Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Glad they worked out for you! I figured "fuel" was an appropriate decal for that truck. Once I get the machine fired up, it's nothing to throw in a couple of extras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
