VMM-163 "Evil Eyes" Decal - Design Overview

This die-cut vinyl decal celebrates VMM-163, the United States Marine Corps' Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 163, also known as the "Evil Eyes." The design captures the spirit and mission of this critical aviation unit.

Visual Elements and Representation

The primary visual element is likely the squadron's emblem, prominently featuring a stylized eye, reflecting their "Evil Eyes" nickname. This eye symbolizes vigilance, precision, and the watchful presence of the squadron in supporting Marine operations worldwide.

The MV-22 Osprey, the squadron’s signature aircraft, is likely depicted in a dynamic pose, perhaps in flight or hovering, symbolizing its speed, range, and operational versatility. The Osprey signifies the squadron's ability to swiftly deploy troops, equipment, and supplies into combat zones and other strategic locations.

Symbolism and Meaning

The combination of the eye and the Osprey embodies the squadron's core capabilities: the ability to observe, react, and deliver Marines wherever they are needed. The design speaks to the unit's proud history of service and dedication to the Marine Corps' mission.

The decal's overall aesthetic may convey a sense of power, efficiency, and readiness, reflecting the important role VMM-163 plays in supporting Marine Air-Ground Task Forces in both combat and humanitarian missions.

Die-cut vinyl decals: precision-cut shapes on premium water-resistant vinyl with a matte laminate and UV protection — built to resist sun, rain and everyday wear for long-lasting use.

These die-cut decals are trimmed exactly to the design, producing crisp edges and a professional finish. They’re made from thick, water-resistant vinyl and finished with a matte UV laminate that reduces glare while protecting colors from fading.

The production process uses eco-solvent inks for dense, even color and a protective overlaminate that helps the decal survive outdoor exposure. Rated for multi-year outdoor life when applied to the right surface, these decals give a clean, matte look without sacrificing durability.

  • Material: premium water-resistant vinyl engineered for weather resistance.
  • Finish: matte laminate that mutes shine and guards against scratches.
  • Print: eco-solvent inks for solid blacks and vivid color depth.
  • Protection: UV laminate extends outdoor life and helps prevent fade.
  • Longevity: rated to last multiple years outdoors under normal conditions.

Die-cut decals adhere best to smooth, non-porous surfaces — glass, metal, coated plastics and finished wood. They work well on bottles, windows, laptops and vehicle windows for short- to medium-term outdoor use.

  1. Prep the surface: remove dust and oils with a lint-free cloth; for residue use mild soap and water and allow to dry fully.
  2. Peel and position: lift a corner of the liner, align the decal and lay it down slowly, pressing from the center outward.
  3. Seal: smooth the edges with a card or your thumb to ensure full contact and reduce trapping air.

Note: to keep adhesive performance in wet conditions, apply decals to very smooth surfaces (for example: glass). Avoid rough or heavily textured materials where the adhesive can’t form a full bond.

Maintenance is low-effort. Gently wipe decals with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp microfiber and light pressure will clean the surface — dry immediately afterward.

Avoid abrasive pads, strong solvents or power washers; these can scratch the laminate or lift edges. Proper care preserves the matte finish and keeps colors vivid for longer.

Sizes are specified by the longest side. For example, a 4″ decal measures four inches across its greatest dimension. The die-cut follows the artwork’s contour so the decal sits flush with clean, professional edges.

Small variations can occur with intricate outlines, but the listed measurement always reflects the maximum edge-to-edge length for accurate placement planning.
