Default Wife made me a vinyl insert for my GTO rear bumper :)

My wife has a Silhouette Cameo (a die cutter) and lots of vinyl and I had a blank GTO bumper. So she cut a few test pieces out of paper. It took like 3 tries or so before we cut out the working vinyl. Her favorite color is teal so we decided that she could have a teal GTO logo on my car. It's a teal sticky vinyl and I think it turned out pretty sweet. Even though I wasn't fond of teal at first it seems to look pretty nice on the bumper. We will probably make another to get it perfect since this one needed a little trimming but all in all it's pretty neato.

I think the teal looks good on the black and works well with the silver. Well done.

Looks cool. I was just catching **** from a friend about not having any vinyl insert. Maybe Ill go to a vinyl convention and prowl for a new wife.
