Obviously can't make out the Japanese characters, so it just says CAR in a version that uses three characters.sounds like its not an easy one then...

I'm having some trouble with this logo and it's printing area. I don't know why it's doing this but as you can see both ends are getting cut off. I've tried several time to reset the print area but I haven't had any luck doing that. Any help that you can give me would be great. Thanks

Based on that image I found I think it says Car Club, so I've amended the decal.
edit: Correct file attached.

Apologies for the low resolution, but would it be possible to get these three pieces made up, please? It doesn't need the GSX logo, so they can be mirrored on the other side of the car.
Ideally as the top section, the pink and blue in the middle as one and then the bottom section as a third.

Hi all,
I hope everyone is safe, happy, and well.
I'm after a little bit of help if possible. I'm trying to blanket an area of a car with groups of a logo (see picture for better explanation) I have created a 4x4 grid with this logo. That was the maximum I could push it on size, but I was wondering if anyone could reduce the size and make that grid bigger? It's taking forever to fill the area and my decal limit is running out quickly.
On this particular vehicle you will see I'm trying to cover the whole front end, of which it will taper off on the bonnet and guards
I'm attaching the files I'm using. If you see a better way or need further explanation (apologies I'm terrible at explaining what I'm trying to do) let me know
Thank you, once again team!

I thought there'd be room for more
What software and what SVG settings did you use, if I might ask?

I always use CorelDraw, nothing special on the settings. The difference comes from combining them to be one path, which saves the file re-using all the style info for each repeat... other than that your file was very efficient.
edit: I could probably get another row or column in, but then it wouldn't repeat without staggering.

Amazing stuff! Thank you so much. Not only will this help to create a stunning livery, but also save my sanity. Mazel tov
Combining to one path? Genius. Something I'm sure is second nature to yourself, but completely alien to me. I'd have never have known

As ikon says, the big win is drawing it as a line, rather than a filled shape. File sizes are generally all about nodes, the less you have, the smaller the file.
Your shape had 42 nodes, my line drawn shape has 9 - so did ikons, we just drew them differently - so immediately that's a four fold saving.
Stuff like combining paths can save quite a bit if you've got a lot of separate paths that all have the same properties
This is a snippet of the code from ikon's file...
You can see it's just saying the same thing for when it defines each path, that literally is using up filesize for no benefit. If you make them all one path, it only has to say that once.

Thanks for this helpful insight
I only played around with the Illustrator svg export settings and didn't look into the code. Never would've thought to combine the paths.

The fact remains. Yourself and everyone who contributes to this group are the unsung heroes. I can do very basic stuff myself. I mean very badic. Heck I still have to check twice even making text svg files on PowerPoint haha
Just incase you'd like to see it. This is a glimpse of what I have used the pattern for. It's not on the full car, just certain areas. Front and roof panel

For the 3 layers for the 97, place one, then use the duplicate and replace decal options to get the other two, that way they'll all line up easily.

Beat me to it
I was just working on it.Posting it anyway since I spent 30 minutes on finding and making it, in case you want both versions. Ironically I seem to have begun my research just as you posted yours.
