What to do with all those blank buttons on the console?

Here are some thoughts, plenty of similar ideas out there, but I am very proud of the "NO GAS" and "TOXIC"

I got bored, so just create them. . But I think those art are too small(the lines are too fine) to have decal made. I created 991 graphics for the back of the seat, thosecame out pretty good.

That's great. Been looking to do something similar, but can't figure out how. You say they are not decals, so how did you stick them on and get the sizing so good. Also, I have been having trouble printing white on a black background, as the black does not come out even unless you have an expensive printer . . .

Very well done! I have been searching for a set like that with no luck. A bunch of VW golf owners had them made up a few years ago.

If it is the same pics I saw, think they print the graphics on black and stick it on, which look too home made, but it is.

The interior shot is not my car. I photoshop it. I have not put decal on the blank buttons yet, and I am not sure it border me that much anymore. I did create a 991 graphics for the seat back, and that turned out pretty good.

The right way to do it is to get it silk screen, that is way more trouble and costly than it is worth, and might not work at that size.

Another option is to get decal made and apply on. From experience, the graphics need to be very simple ad bold at that tiny size.

To do those icons on the blank? Yeah, might be a challenging project tho because of how small they are.
