Default Any Zeppelin Fans?

Just thought I'd share this pic... my car has a tramp stamp lol (Notice the panel between the tail lights). Anybody else done something like this? It'd be great to see some pics if you got em.

Sand down the bird and polish the tail panel to a gloss black and the emblems will look even better

i've not heard this but i did see the live in wembley dvd where dave grohl and taylor hawkins (drums) play two zeppelin songs with john paul jones and jimmy page, if memory serves they play rock n roll and ramble on.... bad effin ***... and dave jumps on the drum set to play rock n roll

i thought about buying a silver bird emblem.....but i like your idea even more

a buddy from work told me about "some guy" that makes stickers... he has a booth at a flee market here in town... so i showed him a print out of the zep symbols and he said "be back in an hour"... dude has a machine that cuts the design out with AMAZING ACCURACY and he only charged me about $13... it's some kind of hardcore vinyl... anyway here's to all you Zeppelin fans
and thanks for the comments fellas

So where would you post this? The Zeppelin sticker doesn't keep my car clean but it does change the APPEARANCE of my car wouldn't you agree?

I was going to do something a little more custom, but choose to just keep it simple. Might i recemmend shaving the key hole, repainting and then adding the decal dead center? i think that would look much better.
