new lightning windshield banner

i had a friend whip up a couple of lightning windshield banners for me... she's gonna give me the proverbial "hook up" on some stickers and "bling-bling" for under the hood & in the cab.


which one do you guys like?
i think i'm gonna get the top one. i think sapphire blue flames with the lightning in silver.




i think she's gonna make something that covers the pocket in the dash kit when you go to an aftermarket head unit.. we'll see.

I like #3 and #5. The others are too hard to read. Is she going to market these? I'm sure they would sell very well.

I like #1 and 2 the best, but I think they will be hard to see.

My next choice would be #4 or 5.

I think #3 and 6 are too plain, especially if you're wanting a unique look.

I have a little experience marketing Banners.... If you want the banner to be visible make sure it is in a light color..

The tint strip at the top of the windshield is essentallly a black background for any banner. A couple years ago I had a 3 color banner made in the then colors of my logo which were red, grey and silver. The grey disappeared in the tint strip and the banner ended up looking like SVT ____________ .com

If you want red pick a Bright red, if you want silver pick bright silver, avoid reflective colors on the front,

Depending on the contrast between the flames, the text and the tint the flames may make the text hard to read.... But done carefully it might look great too....

See if you can get the banner cut on a curve to match the windshield... It will make the install easier and look better.

Good Luck

Doug

qball2439: we're racing this friday at the local track in monroe.. it's gonna be a hot one! we do need to meet up one day though.. maybe you can come to monroe and get some stripes put on your truck.
