Default Corvette windshield decal: curved to fit the windshield

EDIT: I'm just done designing
Here is the picture to compare the straight lettering and curved lettering



--------------------------- Original post --------------------------------------

Just wanna keep y'all updated that I am designing "CORVETTE" windshield decal which is curved to fit the windshield.
It is the first time you see these letters are curved to fit the windshield.

The design is really complicated and takes me longer than I thought.
I should release them by next week.


-Mike

Is that for those who can't remember what they're driving?

Hehe but some people likes to put these on their Vettes so I just make them available to Vette's community

Do you think these guys don't know what they're driving ?

I will buy one if I get the urge to emulate all the pimply punks with HONDA or ACCORD or CIVIC etc etc etc on their windshields. About that time I'll also proly develop a need for a huge decorative wing, gigantic exhaust pipe, screens over my intake, etc etc etc.

Each to his own etc more power to you if you like this . However, I would not wave at a C6 so decorated but mostly likely I would laugh and shake my head.

IMO such a thing really detracts from a new vette. just my opinion which means nothing except that I suspect something over 95% of C6 owners would agree ( but no way to prove that assertion ).

That's a pretty sh*tty, pompous attitude. You wouldn't wave to somebody in a C6 because you don't agree with their stylistic preferences? Hell, next time I won't wave to a guy who has a personalized plate, or cashmere interior!

I don't want to put my nose where it doesn't blong but reading some of OregonC6 replies I consider this to be one of his politest replies. Go figure

Mike, waiting for the decals

If it makes a buck for you... go for it & good luck.

Personally I think it would look great on a yellow ZO6. (C6R clone)

If its good enough for Pratt & Miller, Its good enough for me, But I would need it in BLACK lettering because i want it to only stand out from up close, All the other colors stand out from far away and I'm after a different look if you know what i mean.

I think some of the posters seem to forget that it is funding from the forum vendors that keep this forum going. May be they need to post somewhere else.

The same could be said about you not liking peoples reactions to rice on a Corvette.

Most of the vendors are big boys and realize that different people have different tastes.
