I have made a redbubble account and have started to get some Live to dai merch available for purchase. There is only one design currently but you can get sticker’s coffee mugs, hoodies and t-shirts etc.
In future there will be more available but you know how it goes . You got to start somewhere.
Rest assured any profit from these will go straight back into keeping the forum up an running and back into the daihatsu commuity.
To find what we have so far just g o to
https://www.redbubble.com/
type in “livetodai” in the search bar and this should bring you to what is available.
All sales etc are done through redbubble so we do not have any stock and can not be bought from other sources.
Go check it out! I will put a note in here when more design’s etc are available.
The design looks great, well done Evil!
Design credit actually goes to @Luke . I probably should have mentioned that lol. oops sorry Luke!
I I captain lol.
this post it a little old and i cant find results on redbubble for live to dai so i assume its no longer availible?
i would loved one for my rear window on my sirion
yeh, is its mate it is from about 5 years ago. I pulled it because there was maybe 1 sale a year if that. I am no longer doing any merch as I don’t have a permanent address as I am traveling for a while. You are welcome to get something made for yourself. However please do not use the Livetodai name to start making profit from. Merch will be available again at sometime in the future but I will say it would be at least a year minimum before it is.
alright, thnx for the reply!
maybe i will create one and offcourse not to make a profit from but for personal use to show the dutch roads this awesome name
Thanks for spreading the word
i am looking at the options but it seems the live to dai “logo” is made up from a font any clue what the name of the font is?
i read somewere someone said something about logo with a qr code to livetodai.com so i made one…
ill continue on it later but this what i got now.
the pictures are png so the background will addapt to wherever its posted on or if printed it will be transparent background.
i am good with photoshop so sugestions or requests can be made and ill see what i can do!
The font is election day pretty easy to do mate. There are other threads where I have had some of the past stickers available.
Post up what you have done when you have decided and got it on your car.
Ah sweet ill look that font up.
For now i ordered a sticker for tryout the seccond one with red and white and the qr code behind it for on the rear window to see how it will turn out and a sunscreen banner for the front window in matt black and white text on it saying live to dai not in the font of the l2d logo but man its just the best slogan for daihatsu drivers haha.
Ofcourse ill show the results once i have them on
you do realise when I came up with livetodai name it is because of how it sounds and the 2 ways people say dai.
eg
Livetodai = live to die
Livetodai = live today
It was also a take off of an old Biker Magazine we got in Australia which was called live to ride.
Once I said it I just loved how it sounded.
I’m glad you like it.
the live to die is how i tought about it but the live today is also nice didnt even think about that !
its catchy and it reminds me of a song i realy like but thats the other way around, die to live
On facebook i follow another group from malaisia they are a very large community of sirion drivers mostly the newer models that are not availible in europe but their name is Sirionity one of their management people asked me if i wanted to set up a Branch of their community in the netherlands but i kindly declined because i am afraid i dont have the time to do so and also my knowledge about cars is very limited i got two right hands but no knowledge about engines and car parts but i try to learn a little by little and enjoy researching stuff to do to my own car at some point.
I started late with cars in general and it really. I have always been the same with learning about the cars I have and not bothering much with any other’s unless it is of benefit to the cars I have. I am 99% self taught. I can weld but not great at it and I just did that by buying a welder doing minimal research on how they work and just diving in. I have made a lot of mistakes and that is a good thing as we learn from mistakes and should never be ashamed of making them. My best advice (take it or leave it) would be to jump into having a go at things your not sure on but with technology being what it is today you can learn a lot from research so have a crack but do a little research first. This is what you seem to be doing anyway so well done. Also you are lucky to be in the Netherlands as a lot of the Dai community on the forum here is from that part of the world.
Just found this thread after commenting on another about stickers
Just so I understand no one on here is doing merch or stickers anymore?
If that’s case I am looking at purchasing a vinyl cutter myself for other things I want to make.
Would there be any gripe from anyone if I said I didn’t mind making and sending them out at the buyers cost?
I’ve been looking at getting a sticker for a while and seems so are most people. Understandably shipping to different parts of the world would incur different costs however if the person is willing to cover all them costs for the sticker then I wouldn’t mind doing it Just an Idea to throw out there
If your making them for yourself that is fine. I a member asks you to make one and you are charging cost price then that is ok. If your making them and selling them for profit then you are just ripping of the name and taking away from the forum.
I was doing them and had been for years but now due to my lifestyle I no longer can as I travel fulltime.
Over the years I have lost count on how many people want to help and line their own pockets in the proccess. (not all) It is usually new people to the forum asking. Not being an ass just saying how it has been.
The forum runs on the donation’s of its members (used to be stickers sales also). If funds run out the forum stops.
Please no one worry, we are ok presently with no danger of going under anytime soon and there would be a post asking for help if it comes to that as has happened in the past. Thankyou to everyone who donates or has donated you really help keep this forum up and running for everyone.
I totally understand mate, I’ve been reading this forum for years but only actually signed up recently. I’m also admin of Daihatsu Enthusiasts on Facebook so I ain’t looking to mug anyone off and I would do the stickers more of a favour in my own time not to make money. Only cost I would charge would be postage really just so I ain’t forking out of my own pocket for that.
Just an idea more than anything, I haven’t purchased the machine yet and would be something I’d look doing next year after I’ve moved house and xmas has passed, just wanted to make sure no one had any problems with me offering a hand towards the cause
I wont be going anywhere, I need your guys knowledge for my shitter project
all good mate and thankyou for understnding. I am a member of your fb group also.
