Guys:
STICKERS..... I got Good news and Bad news.
Bad news....
I was talking to one guy for a month now about doing clear vinyl with white/grey letters. Monday he told me he can't do it now....
I tried 2 other places this week and they are saying the same.
They CAN do it , but they tell me that the black window's will drown out the white and you will not be able to see the letters very well at all.
Good news....
I can get the regular vinyl letters made up for under $2 each in multiple colors with no extra cost for different colors.
Here is the basic layout of the sticker.
They told me they have various solid colors to choose from.
Silver (My choice )
White (Should look good on black window)
Grey (May be a little too dark, I will have to look at it again)
Red (Need to see it when I go back)
Yellow (Its a nice bright yellow. Should look good on Yellow cars)
Blue (Need to see it when I go back)
etc...
etc...
Keep in mind that DARKER colors like Blue may not show up well on a black tinted window. I will have to look at it when I go back.
Once I get YOUR color choices I will ask to see the actual vinyl to see how it looks. I will default to a White sticker if I think that certain colors will not look good on your car.
What COLORS and QUANTITIES are you looking for and I will make it happen !?!?!?!?
I'm going in tomorrow after work to place an order.

I hope that no one was injured in the crash.
I hope you can get it fixed up as good as new soon !
Its Duane at "Wylie GoodYear".
Matt has had a lot of paint work done by Duane.
He swears by his work and from what I have seen on Matt's car... he does good paint work.

I would be in for a cruise to Keller's Saturday night, since I'll probably be out of the Sunday GTG for a father's day family GTG.

They are very focused on good customer service. Ask for Nancy (wife of the owner) and tell her Evan & Homa sent you.

Just saw where Dallas Raceway in Crandall is opening back up again.
http://www.competitionplus.com/drag-...dallas-raceway
Turns out this article was old, and Dallas Raceway is not open, The guy supposedly bought Redline.
