Arrow The Stillborn Decal Idea

I had an idea for a new Premium Member decal/decal available for purchase through the Site, I ran it up the flagpole for the Staff here and they were less than excited with the design.(too busy, too complicated, fair enough, we're a democracy here, and I won't force me ego on them)

So I'm heading back to the drawing board, but here's the original design which is made by a guy in Iceland of all places.



He can do them in all of the colors available on the HHR's over their production life, and the cost is roughly six bucks for a set. You get two, so you can have them on each side facing forward.

PM me if you're interested, and I'll shoot you his contact info, I'm not making a cent, neither is the Site...but I still think they're neat.

(My apologies for the sun dazzle in the photo, it was a very sunny day in NC)

I like it. I'd go in on a set of those in RED. Can they be done with the reflective material?

My opinion. It's a nice looking decal but the way too lowered stance and the
"bicycle" wheel look just doesn't appeal to me.

I'll answer the questions and comments in order, as I'm trying to stay "Off Forum" today as much as I can. Michelle is already used up by today's small Thanksgiving lunch and our few guests, Chemo is a b-word and she is already snuggled up under a pile of blankets napping with our little boy Dusty.

DrLoch, reflective red is available, shoot me a PM please.

BlindLizard, 5.5" long and 2.78" high, and he can do a Panel, shoot me a PM.

George, yeah too low, and the wheels need more detail, but we have an "In-House" Vinyl Guy who I'll be talking to about a Version 2.0 which may be closer to the decals offered by the defunct So-Cal HHR group...without treading on any "Intellectual Property" rights.

Keep the comments coming, what I have in mind is an HHR silhouette to go along with the standard "ChevyHHR.net" decal, something to spice things up as we are entering our second decade of existence.

Can he put red rims in place of the black wheels ? Or I'll find something to suffice!

The rims and the HHR are one color only Oldblue, they're cut in a continuous manner, no seams in the decal.
