What are you trying to do? Match interior pieces like the dash? If so remove the pieces and paint. If the dash is steel use a base/clear system. You can spray vinyl to match with special paint/dye.
Not that big of a deal. More time doing the R and R then anything.
For flat surfaces you...
Gravy. Get a halfway decent profile pic and use the pen tool in Illy. Only do this if they can't be had from the mfg.
We are in the process of doing graphics similar to what the factory did on an old boat. Boat shop called the factory to order a set, and they said we haven't done those in...
X2 on Phototec's post.
95 bucks is a smokin' deal. You will spend more time(money) creating your own than buying a file ready to rock.
You will wast even more time trying to find a "deal".
Final note: If 95 bucks is a deal breaker it's time to quit.
On many late model vehicles I take my time and make one side visually correct. If it looks good it is good.
Then I take out the tape and measure the visually correct install for successive sides/vehicles.
With so many cars devoid of any straight lines it's what works best for me. Clients...
Odd thing is bashing a business doesn't work like that. Ever hear the phrase: Ya can't tell nobody nuthin'. I have seen this thousands of times in my life.

Otherwise I'd project it on the wall and have at with brushes.(50 feet and 50 mile an hour rule applies here)
I'm no sign painter, but picked up some pointers working with one off and on for a couple years.
Just have to cut everything in when its dark.
For 15 shirts I'd run Eco-Print through the Roland, heat press and collect a check.
Good design is a beautiful thing, but a fat bank account is infinitely better.
Could be exclusive to Ford. When you order miles of vinyl at a time they'll make whatever you want. You might try a matte laminate over black reflective.
Went down this road with a motor coach some years ago. RV manufacturers spec their own color palettes.
So I talked to a rep. He said...
Do a bright wrap to attract attention. Then rivet some J-channel on both sides of the vend window(one open side) to hold coro signs with various food items. When he gets on site he can decide what panel(s) to slide in.
I'd build it in Photoshop. By the time you find that "perfect" background, and tweak the "perfect" background to your needs you could have one finished in Ps.
Just build it piece by piece. You'd be surprised how easy it is when you build one layer on the next. Best part is you will have...
I looked at the disc I have and it's MR Chisel Fonts. Bought it years ago when I was doing stock cars. Not sure if they're around anymore.
May want to check Sign DNA. They have a bunch of prismatic fonts.
