Sounds like a good idea. Just one thing to note, the more intricate the design, the higher the cost to reproduce it.

I got the idea from Kevin aka Spartan... I just outlined a pic of my truck and got a font that's similar to the BLAZER emblems on the trucks

photoshop has crappy fonts, but its something different.
It's not Photoshop that has crappy fonts, it is the fonts on a computer that dictate what fonts are in Photoshop, not the program dictating what fonts it uses.
A decal should be designed as a vector file, not a raster file as created in PS. You should be using Illustrator or Corel Draw to design decals. Photoshop limits upsizing your file to a 100% chance of pixellation and poor quality. The only way you can resize with a raster file is down without ruining the image quality. A decal created in PS would only have to be redrawn as a vector file by the decal shop cutting the vinyl, which would add on $$ to your price. If you guys design in PS and decide on a design , I can redraw it properly for you in Illy to clean it up. A PS file will ALWAYS have to be cleaned up.
A great font site for anyone wanting to update their font files on their computers:

Wow this is what I was hoping for. I really like otnietdehoooo's with the outline of a blazer. If we could get the edges cleaned up I would def rock that one.

This is an image that otnietdehoooo posted earlier in this post, I took some time and cleaned up the edges to make it a little sharper. I only did this because I am really thinking about using this one. I hope that no one is mad that I did this. http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/ll122/dubunderpar/Big%20Black/decal.jpg

That looks GREAT!
I've been redoing it over and over all day with 2drs and 4drs. How did you make the lines so much smoother? The one I originally posted was hand traced and wasn't that good.
Maybe m00nwater can make it better. I think I understand what she meant about not using PS to make logo's, no matter what I did to it, it was always jagged/pixelated.
If anyone wants the .PSD file I drew mine in, I can upload that so anyone with PS can edit/alter it...
