I agree with Sweex I think we need something modern looking that's easily readable and also jet wash friendly. I'm no good with Photoshop so I'll try and describe my idea as best I could

How about a sharp outline of the map of the midlands done in the style of those "nurburgring" stickers with the MIDLAND part inside the map and the ITALIA part on the outside on the right (or the other way round with the ITALIA part inside the map). We could use a sharp thick font for the words which would be easily read plus it would be as jet wash friendly as you can get.

They could be made in batches of different colours to suit the many colours our cars are or you could have the outline of the midland map in white with MIDLAND in green and the ITALIA part in red. Admitiedly this sort of sticker suits the corner of a window rather than on the edge but it would kind of fulfil the theme of the midlands? What do you all think

I like your idea man! I like the idea of having the italia bit in the map and midlands at the bottom right. Would look sweeeeeet.

OR...... If you can't get it "MIDLAND" in the map you could put MI inside the map and then put "MIDLANDITALIA" in smaller font underneath

I like this as well!

Wow gadge is a natural! how about the font that the "fiat forum" stickers use? Would match then? could we make the stickers go on the inside so also wash friendly? Cause my FF sticker is on inside :S

I'm sure you could probably get them made for inside aswell as outside? I much prefer inside however I'm finding that more and more modern car windows that have like a big thick black band around the window which you can't reach to stick the sticker on from the inside

Another idea I had was to do away with the midland map and just have like a fancy looking "MI" (like the capital letters in the middle of a gear or something) with "MIDLANDITALIA" in a smaller but clear font going right through the middle

Another good idea but maybe too complicated for a sticker? :S would look smart though!

U can do anything u like with a sticker, depends on where u get them done to how long they last, mine have been on 7yrs now and even the tiny ones on the wheels (which we clean with acid stuff) have never come off.

Not sure if anyone has said this but what about a MI in big block capital and the Midlands Italia below it? Nice, simple and easy to read?

I like the thought of having the outline of the Midlands, and maybe having it coloured in like the Italian flag?

The only problem I see is, as we attract people from all over, the map of the midlands will be a map of the UK.

Change the name of the group to UK Italia haha and source the members of Yorkshire Italia too. Although half there members are with us aswel

Then they will have to build a bridge

You could always extend the name slightly to the below:

M.I.A.
Midlands Italiane Automobili

What about an Italian flag with M.I.A in the flag one on each colour box and at the bottom underneath it says Midlands Italiane Automobili?

Something like this

That's it, but smaller flag bigger writing, so you don't have to squint

Lol I forgot to put "not actual size"

Well I think it looks good.
