The framework that Art made for that sign uses the weight of the car to hold it in place. Won't get knocked into the car, won't get stolen, won't blow away!

Is there a way to print the info on a clear 'static' vinyl that you could lay on the glass? You could stick it to the passenger window and have the DS window down for gawking at the interior.

Just a thought.

Steve-

Here is a pic of the sign I had for done when I took my car to SEMA. I think it is clean, simple and to the point. Obvious I'm a little partial!! :D I'm sure somebody will notice Lateral-G is not on it. Reason being - this was back in 2003 and Lateral-G did not exist. Amazing to think it has become what it has in such a short time!! Thanks Scott!!

That's an interesting idea Stuart !!! As a guy who attends shows I would love to be able to pick up postcards like that. Something like the one's from the NHRA teams - just smaller IMO.

Maybe some of the site artists could come up with a style template with Lat-G's logo/address at the bottom ?

I had DSE make them for the Aluminator a couple years ago and it worked great. The car photo and specs, plus company info. people loved them and its amazing people still have the cards years later. Signs next to cars can also fall on the car and scratch, etc. Especially with the volume of SEMA participants. Just my opinion.

Brent, very well done signage. Looks fantastic.

If I had the time and money I would love to do the cards. Instead I'm doing what Craig suggested (sort of)

I'm making two signs that are 9x22-inchs. they will lay between the two tires along the rocker panel. Each panel will have a small wedge to put them at a better angle. The writing wont be huge (14-16 point) but if you want to know the info you can kneel down and read it.

Wilwood has a cool display cooked up for my car and I don't want to clutter it up with a big sign. By using the logos it gives all the companies better exposure since it's more visual. The second board will just be made of 18 more companies and the three websites I frequent.

Here's a rough draft sample.. it's smaller that it will actually be. Thoughts?

I hate to bring it up but if you have not made these up I would check spelling (specifically scattershield) I may be wrong but look again please... I know it is nitpicking but you would get called on it...lol I am sorry but it is a sticking point with me..

Hence it being called a "rough" draft ;)

But thanks for the catch..
