Hey guys with everything debaged and painted I wanted to rep scion a little still lol so I got a black vinyl SCION decal for my windshield instead of everyones favorite choice of white on the wind deflector of the sunroof. The black is just a nice subtle detail that stays with my blacked out theme. Here are some little phone pics taken from my phone and my friends. Ive never seen this before so I thought id show everyone. :)

I love how it looks from the inside (dont mind the blue shooting up from the footwell haha my LED strip fell) vvv

I did run into a problem though, since the windshield is a convex surface there was a crease in the backing paper which went onto the decal and left an annoying crease so i tried to lift it up and slowly put it back down but that just made little bubbles.. so i may redo this with a new one.

I've never been one for big lettering like that, anywhere on the vehicle, but it doesn't look bad. I think it would annoy me to have it on the windshield while I was driving though. But, hey, if you like, that's all that matters! :)

A tip for the air bubbles.
Take a pin. Poke a small hole in the bubble. Flatten :)
Some people like to then take the tip of the pin and put super glue on it, to hold it all together. I've never tried this.

I like how it looks though![/b]
yeah i know what you mean but that wouldn't really help my situation, its kinda hard to explain ha i appreciate it though!

I like it from the outside, but not the inside...

I like it with nothing... clean and simple is how I roll but he to his own[/b]
yeah i definately get that i just think the black is so subtle that its not a huge change. its not like its a bright obnoxious color or anything.

and hydralover- haha yeah i know but one word comments like that without reasoning just always piss me off unless its a completely called for comment which i dont believe that was.. but i dont mean to sound mad or anything cuz im not

Don't let us discourage you. Like I said earlier, if you like it, that's all that matters.

hey guys im not gonna quote everyone and respond haha there are too many but about sitting on the roof lmao that was probly the hardest thing ive ever done ha but once i thought about it, and like i think nexus said, its super strong and there was no problem... yes hydralover our glass roofs are verryy classy :D haha

I think someone said that it wasnt center, but that must be the pictures because its extremely centered ha i spent a lot of time to do that im very OCD lol.

As far as not liking it on the inside, or on the outside for that matter, I can see how some wouldnt like it one bit like Ive said before, but I for one like it and everyone at school love it haha not that that matters, but it encourages me to keep it on a little.

Thank you all for giving me your opinions though I appreciate it , the next topic I post will be my car on H-techs so i have a feeling im gonna get thumbs up on that at least haha

oh and thanks foques :)
