I had an appointment with my sign/graphics guy today. It's always fun to go to his shop. He's got crotch rockets and pit bikes all over the place, and the sweetest pit bull (Roxie) you ever did meet.. (I leave my little fur ball in the truck, less she be a snack. LOL)
He's working up some designs for the back of my daily driver. I'm looking at a 70/30 perf on the rear window, along with some other die cut graphics. He talked me out of a 'back wrap', referring to additional labor charges and insisted that my bang for the buck would be spot on for what he has in store. He mentioned reflective die cuts too
As long as he's reasonable (has always been in the past), I should be sporting some before and after pics on the 4Runner soon. And since it's lifted, leveled, rockin' a cargo basket with Hella 500s and running 32" GY Kevlars, I tend to get some looks anyway... At least soon, they'll have marketing pics to look at when they're behind me listening to the rumble of the Magno flow stainless exhaust
I can't wait! And if it gets the results I'm hoping for, a partial wrap may be next..... C'mon Spring!!!
**edit** for typos again, of course.. arghhhh.

You betcha bud. I'll have a captive audience behind me at most red lights and stop signs. Not to mention strategic parking everywhere I go
I figure 1 out of 10 folks around here need my services, so this should help with marketing immensely. I plan to have a business card holder on the back with a 'take one' message of sorts too.
@Chet - my wife wouldn't go for it either. I didn't even have to ask to know that answer. Hee hee.... As the old saying goes 'If Mama ain't happy, I'm gettin' the hell outta here for a while"
@ Rodney - that's probably a question for your insurance agent. Could be a can of worms.
Just now got this from Absolute Signs. I'd greatly appreciate thoughts, suggestions and constructive input.
I was concerned that the pics were going to wash out in the window, but the black background makes them pop nicely. This part will be on 70/30 perforated film, by 3M. I'll have visibility out the rear as long as it's not raining.
I'm leaning towards the format of the top one as it seems less 'busy'. One change I have in mind is to move the business card holder to the center somewhere (near the emblem above the license plate?) and put a 6"x6" RCIA certified decal where the business card holder currently is slotted for.
All die-cut will be in reflective. Forgot to mention I'm going to lose the Toyota badging along the bottom where the phone number is.
Thoughts on the verbiage - Roof Stains? Safely Removed! ?

Other thoughts or suggestions please?
Thanks!
Good to finally see something! I like the second pic with the stacked words. The only thing I'd change would be the dots in the phone number to dashes... preference and I just think it looks better. That's the old fart in me that never quite figured out the dot thing!
Ted the second one looks good. I like the stacked words also. Maybe make the website more visable with a brighter color or possibly switch the phone number and website around. You have an easy enough to remember website name. Someone may remember the website name over having to write down a number while driving. Overall looks great. Care to share a price range?
Ok here are my thoughts- I'm for the second one. Dashes instead of dots in the phone number. If it was me I'd put number down on the bumper and webside bigger and bolder in the tailgate but thats just what everyone else just said soo there ya go! Not bad price

Ted,
I second Chet's suggestion. It looks great, you are going to
