I think you'll end up with a consensus of "NO!" when asking that question here. Although, Thunder's decal doesn't look all that bad. Do what you like.

hmmm... I suppose that decal is better than putting TRANS AM or something like that on there. Everyone already knows what kind of car it is without the gay windshield banner. Equally gay are CORVETTE ones. Gee, is it a Corvette? No ****? lol

I vote no, unless the car is a racecar.

Personally I would make a small version of your website decal and put that on the back window.
What did thunder racing did for you that you'd be willing advertise for them for free?

The consciences Will be this...most purists will say no and call you crazy for even considering it.....

The road racers will say Yeah..do It....

The more liberal and enlightened will tell you its your car...do what makes you feel good....

I had one on my car for a year. I just replaaced the windshield and got to see it without the decal...and I like it MUCH better without it. I think the decal draws attention away from other parts of the car. Thats just my opinion though.

I like a low profile windshield banner. I don't like the bold font 'Trans AM' that I've seen.
