Most of them are rice..If you stick with "PONTIAC", "RAM AIR", "TRANS AM", "FORMULA", "FIREBIRD" you will be okay

its just my opinion but those type of banners are gay. everyone knows what kind of car it is...you dont need to plaster the name across the windshield. if its a shop banner than its a differant story.

Yea, I think they're dumb as hell. A Bird on the back window, sure, but if you have to put one on the windshield, then something is wrong lol Either you don't know what you're driving, or you live in Richville where people only know the European made cars.

Leave the banners to the ricers please.

That I do agree with though. That's the only exception.

I just don't want anything blocking my view. If you put a banner on you have to look at it all the damn time, in reverse! And it kind of shouts out, "look at me" when the car doesn't need that. Just my opinion.

There's a guy around here with a '95 'bird that has an "SLP" banner in his rear windshiled, I usually share most of your opinions when it comes to banners, but I always thaught his looked decent.

I think even the Firehawk banner doesn't look good on the windshield. Maybe it's the style of the lettering, or just the fact it's too big and flashy, but I wasn't too crazy about it. Personal preference I guess, but I would never put any lettering. Imagine seeing a Lamborghini with "Lamborghini" or "Diablo" on the windshield... it sort of makes the car's exterior look a little too busy (IMO).

Here is my take on windsheild banners.

Make, Model, Year, etc...is all Fine!

The fact of the matter is, WE know what kind of car it is. The GENERAL PUBLIC does not. I can't tell you how many times I've had someone tell me, "Hey, nice Corvette!" ahahha

The only banners I cant stand are the ghetto ones done in Olde English or Gothic fonts...ugh. You can't even read them!
