Go to a professional sign shop & have them made & installed on high quality materials (yes, there is a difference)... whether it cost $40 or $100 the bottom line lies in the old saying "the quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten". I own a sign shop, so I know what I'm talking about here... just find a good guy & not some hack running a $1,000 plotter out of his laundry room !

My letters measure 2 1/2" high by 5" wide. I have to really look up to see the letters. Another two to three inches down might be annoying and possibly be in the line of sight for a tall driver this is just my opinion.

Shouldn't the name be curved upwards instead of downwards(at the sides of the word Corvette?)

I got my scripted one from Mid America or Ecklers. I think they came in silver, black & red. Good luck and enjoy.

Whole heartedly!



As for the whole just incase people don't know its a corvette thing... not everyone can identify cars that well... even if they do know what one looks like. Its an attention to detail thing. Besides I'm sure some people view the windshield banners as a way of showing their pride in the vehicle they own.
