I currently have a Hot Rod Power Tour 2006 small banner on my windsheild that will stay on for a while. I did the entire tour this year and had such a great time. I've already had a lot of people see the banner and ask me questions about it, so I'm going to leave it for a while. It's like a badge of honor.

I'm not a big fan of the windsheild decals, the back window is better but in the end its all up to what you like. If you like it then keep it, if you dont really like it and are indifferent about it then toss it for sure.

I also went through my windshield decal phase, lasted first 3 years I had the car, I dumped it last year.

It was okay at the time, but now my car looks cleaner now without it.


Unless your in love with it - Toss it.
