Dash Plaques and/or window decals

I am thinking of having some dash plaques or window decals printed up for those who are working on the project truck.

The dash plaque is like a refrigerator magnet, about the size of a business card. We would change the picture of the truck to ours when it is done, or to Skip's now. I just did not have a good view of his to work with.



The background would be grey for the plaque, clear if we did a decal.

What do you guys think? Like the idea? Want to change the logo or the truck?

As long as it doesn't glue to the window, I'm in.

I lent my pickup to my son while he was doing satellite tv installs. He put a commercial sticker on the windows. I'm still trying to get the glue off.

Any tips?

Sure - don't lend your pickup. Next time give him his mother's car.

I like the dash plaques, but fear those who drive new trucks would not be able to find any steel for the magnet to stick to - guess it would wind up stuck to their tool box back at the shop.

WD-40, Peanut Butter, or Lighter Fluid.

Yep, magnet sounds better. However, I haven't been involved yet so not sure my vote counts.

I'd stick (no pun intended) to the image of the project truck, although I like Skip's better, it doesn't resemble ours in the least way.

I agree with using an image of the project truck - can someone send me a sideview of a bumperside truck with big wheels? (Even better one with a roo' guard and roll cage.)

Also, what you guys think of these?



Or, one I like even more;
