2 things,
1st, I've never met a cop that could drive worth an S once the "contest" started.
2nd, a cop car with that kinda power ends up in one of 2 places, a ditch or wrecking yard #dpsmustangsandcamaros.

That video was a fake, someone dubbed in a diesel truck doing a burnout and overlayed it on the vette doing a burnout, hence no black diesel exhaust.

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.

Toque

My first choice would be grey if its not to dark, second choice would be silver, either one is fine with me. I'll take 4.

Now lets get back to the primary goal of our GTG's.
Meeting up on Sunday evenings, hanging out with good friends, helping each other with modifications... etc..etc... !

This group has a HUGE knowledge base and personal experience with modifications. Lets continue to keep that going.
