We have not yet seen one on the rear window, by doing so you are going to lose the vision you need to see out of the back, if you were to do it I would definitely recommend using C7R NEW GENUINE GM HOOD DECAL JAKE SKULL LOGO - GM (23270637)

It would be going on a rear tinted window (basically black), so I would need one that the vinyl was something other than black. Do you have different colors?

The only other option is a full decal which is carbon flash and spectra gray Z06 Jake Logo Hood Decal (One-Piece Two Tone Carbon Flash)

Do you have any pics on black paint to give me an idea of how it would look on a tinted window?

I am actually considering applying this decal to the transparent roof, the measurements are just right for the length. Just need to decide if I am going to continue the stripes at all down the rest of the body.
