Default A little enhancement

I'm looking for some suggestions. You know what it's like... you do something and everyone says "That's great! But it would have been REALLY cool if you'd ...."
Those who know my car know I've traded the standard colour-matched bonnet strip for a chrome one off a Fairmont. In the vein of the truckies who have catch cries like "FAMILY VALUES" and "I LOVE MY WIFE" on those plastic wind deflectors on the bonnet of their rigs, I'd like to get something etched on mine.

I've found a company who've quoted me $40 (yeah, that's right!) for a single word; $50 extra if there's a logo and so on. I'm hoping to get it done for the show at the Brown Jug.

So.... here are some ideas so far:

JADE
SINFUL (with a halo around the top of the "S"
FORD ENVY
ford logo JADE ford logo
ftf logo JADE ford logo

any others???!!!

This suits you to a T Di, I think it's the best of the lot.
SINFUL (with a halo around the top of the "S"

I also think you must be seeing different trucks around the place than i do. If you are seeing those quotes on the bug deflectors.

why not go for vinyl stickers on the deflectors & photon torpedos.

The artwork has been finalised...


Cost will be $50.00 plus postage. The strip was posted off today and I am SOOOO excited! I did have a moment of panic when I removed the strip and it did feel disturbingly like plastic, as Dave had said it was... but BGF have assured me it's a metal alloy. Phew!
