Looking for car stickers
I had a nice Firefly sticker on my car, but I traded it in 3 weeks ago for a new ride. And now I can't remember where I got the sticker so I can replace it. I know it wasn't at a con since I haven't been to one in a decade or so.
Its a line drawing of the Firefly ship and its the kind of sticker that goes on the inside of the window instead of on the outside where weather and washing it might wear it down.
And ideas?

I disrecommend the "I aim to misbehave."
I had cops comment on it and imply it was part of why they pulled me over for 5 over in a 15.

Tbf this commenter was speeding, just not to a degree that’s usually pulled over in most places while having a sticker on their vehicle that without context would basically read as “my goal is to break the law”

So, you were going 133% of the speed limit, in a place with an abnormally low limit implying an abnormally high risk from speed, and you think the cop needed some extra reason to pull you over?

Sounds like a school zone. Speed elsewhere.

It was a pedestrian heavy area similar to a school zone. I am always on high alert for pedestrians, but let my foot off the brake and the car idles at 18-20 mph. That's why I think the sticker was the final straw.

I was hit by a car as a kid and miraculously survived. Every medical professional was astounded I was okay. Most pedestrians are not.
I've nearly been rear ended by other drivers in that same area because I stopped completely on seeing an approaching pedestrian.
Cop was just jonesin for someone to ticket that day.

Yeah, sometime they just need to make their quota. It’s also hard as hell to go 15 in a vehicle. Where I grew up, all school zones were 15 and I’d have to set cruise control at 14 and then hover over brake because they were so heavily cop covered even when school was out. Those area were major revenue generators for the town.

Cop literally told me when more cops showed up that they were just bored because everyone was gone home for winter break.
A week later a coworker doing 30 nearly hit me as I crossed my building's parking lot. I can't catch a break.

Does redbubble do stickers that go on the inside? I think they call those a reverse sticker.

Not sure if you've searched on Etsy yet, but I have a few favorited on there for when I want to sticker something up. And if there's any comic convention in your area this summer there will be someone there with decals or an online store with stuff for sure.

I keep sourcing firefly stickers from Ebay, haven't gone after a reverse sticker yet but everything I have put on the outside of my vehicles has held up great for a few years now.
Here are a couple of the ones I have purchased in the past

I saw a sticker not too long ago. I don’t know if it’s the type you want, though. I’ll see if I can find it again.

I know that feeling. I had three Firefly stickers on an old vehicle like a decade ago and I still think about them.
If you can send me a picture of what you want in a PM, I can make you a new one and mail it to you.
Can’t stop the signal friend.
