Default External Badging / Decals / Pinstriping

'05 Black Coupe, On looking at the Kleeman Prototype page for the Crossfire, I see the name painted? on the front fenders over the side louvres, this I like, comments.

As to pinstriping, as an old and I do mean old, hot rodder this is a given, but suggestions appreciated.

The area just above the side louvers is an excellent place to display emblems, badges, insignias, what have you. As a matter of fact, that's where Chrysler, or Karmann decided to place the SRT6 emblems on the last few that were built.
As far as I'm concerned that makes the space sort of "ordained" by factory doesn't it?......stay tuned.
As for pinstripes, like every other personal "mod" it's totally up to you. I don't think subtle pinstripes look bad, at least not on the few cars I've already seen them on.

Nah; I put it on there to mess with the people on the track...........and the treehuggers putting around in Prius'. It actually came off of a Lexus LS450H and was on a moulding on the bottom edge door moulding. The picture doesn't do the emblem justice as it's a very nice looking blue around the "hybrid" lettering.

I bet a Chrysler or Roadster decal with this font would look nice on the wing, or with slasher stripes. Kind of a classic look.

I figured you put it on so you could use the car pool lane on the daily commute.

I saw the rear decal on Cody M Crossfire at our last cruise GTG and really liked it.



I ordered a similar decal for my SSB Coupe
