Silver RAM AIR would look pretty good. I've seen it before and will update if I find the pic!

I personally would stay away from any decals on the windshield. Maybe the *only* exception might be a local speed shop that hooked me up or a car club I'm in, and even then it's highly doubtful I'd get a windshield banner. Some small 6" x 3" on the rear hatch would do nicely.

Contrary to what Chester Cheetah may say, it is easy being cheesy...

...when you have a windshield decal.

Oh god they are soooo ugly looking. Unless you are advertising for your car related business, stay away.

That's the only one I've ever seen on an F-Body that looks good. I'm not a big fan of windshield banners. If people don't know it's a Trans-Am, Pontiac, or Ram-Air, then chances are they're not gonna care if they see the sticker.

I agree with SweeTBone though, a local speed shop that maybe did work on the car, or a car club might look good. But that would depend on the look of the sticker. I still say SLP or nothin' though.
