Those decals look great, not to mention that you did it in the garage with the wife and she did not mind!

I use magnetic sign material coverups to stay out of trouble:

Looks good Michael
Mine is gonna be a strips cut like the (PATROL) on your car I want to be able to
stick them all together and stow then in the trunk then when it's time to drive home
after the show I will just place the strips on one at a time to mask the car. makes it
easy to just keep it with the car and in the trunk ready to go I also have the black
rear light covers and covers for the spot's. I will also write a letter to the local LE
Agency's ( with pictures attached) explaining the car the hobby and directions to this
site (if interested)
they will have a look see. and realize that it's not just me that's nuts!:thumbsup:

I made a simple cardboard holder that all the magnetic signs go into when they come off my car. I just put a large binder clip on the holder and store it in the trunk. At shows, the holder goes under the car as I display the trunk area too with all the radio and other equipment in there. :)

This is what I did....bought a 3x2 sheet of magnetic material from a truck sign shop
(it is in 24in.wide roll) so i just bought 3FT of material I cut the material into 4.5 x
36in sections (5) cut one in half to cover the star area below each door crease and
the other 4 ....two on each door above the door crease the remaining 3 ft long piece
i cut in half to cover the HIGHWAY PATROL it all rolls up and goes inside a
plastic coffee can that has enough room for the damp cloth in a zip lok baggie and a
dry cloth to wipe clean the pieces as they are taken off the car...clean and ready to
go on after the show they store inside a dust and dirt free air tight container. total
cost $15 dollars..............
I'm a regular friggin Martha Stewart i am:p

Looks good guys. I wondered how you managed to do the show and go thing with stickers on your "Interceptors".

I see you like the Dark Gourmet Blend of Folgers. I buy that also, but have switched to Maxwell House as the Folgers has doubled in price at our local stores. The MH price is unchanged. ;-)
