Wow, great start Mar, fantastic work! I hope you don't mind if I tweak/proof read a bunch of stuff... :-)

2 color (black and red) would probably be expensive no? And let's inverse the black/white.

I'm afraid the front text is a bit generic and might be seen as an advertisement or scam or something... How about:
NISSAN and INFINITY owners
[stop]
Your transmission has a defect and will FAIL
Please turn this over and read now!

For the back...

"If you own an:
('04 or newer)"

Add the QX56 to the model list.

I don't want to specifically tell people to do the Radiator Bypass. Really, people *shouldn't* do it before 80K miles. Lack of proper warm-up could cause people issues in colder climates. So let's change that text on the right to:

"There is a Nissan design flaw in your Radiator/Transmission Cooler, and when it inevitably fails your transmission will be destroyed. Act NOW to save yourself thousands of dollars in repairs!!!"

Capitalize the F in "for more..." and toss "please visit", delete TheNissanPath.com and make NissanTransmissionFail.com nice and big to fill up the space.

Finally good subscript, probably good to capitalize the T and put a period at the end. Also won't most card printers require 1/8th of an inch gutter on the edges? Everything might need to be squeezed in a bit to make room.

Hahahahah, sorry man, I was a writer in a prior life :P

I agree the white on black is sexy, as long as it doesn't drive up the printing costs much (black silkscreened on white would be the cheap/easy'est I would think).

Per the discussion in the other thread, let's drop Infinit, Titan, and Armada. Should give some more room to make things less cluttered and more readable.

Awesome work dude! Are you using some sort of template software or just banging it out by hand in Photoshop or something?

A friend of mine does business cards, pricing as follows:

For 2000 full colour double sided cards is 205.95 +tax (black and red even though it's only 2 colours it's still considered full colour)

for 2000 black and white double sided cards is 117.99 + tax.

+$50 to do the artwork unless we have a hi-res pdf, he could just send that.

Obviously if we got more, it would be cheaper.


I find myself in the US fairly often, so I could ship these from there to wherever.

What kind of pricing has everyone else gotten?

Quite a bit late but I've used Vista Print a number of times. I just checked and 1500 of these was like $36.

We share an office with a marketing company. Pricing as follows...

Digital 4 colour double sided
1 side red/black/white
2nd side black/white
1000 = $95.00 CDN.
2000 = $140.00 CDN.
Taxes extra.

They would need the art work, I can find out the format required, if interested in this option.

They can ship anywhere in Canada for $12.00. Maybe send to Terry in Winterpeg for distribution to USA? :)
