I was one of the lucky 10 that will be getting one of the Limited Edition Windshield Banners
that Seanery offered to help boost the Free Brad Bail Fund Drive.




I can't decide what color I should get.
My car is all black with only chrome accents.

I think the only fair way is to let the club members decide.
Your vote counts. Feel free to post the reasons for your choice to sway the judges.

Elvira

Elvira: Man it would be a sin not to cloth her in anything but black, and not too much of that.

Black would be super stealthy. All of the windows have limo tint plus there is already a blacked out visor strip across the top of the windshield. A black banner would only add texture.

Silver....

BTW...I hope an approved vendor is doing that banner....

OK. To once again demonstrate some of my bad photoshop skills, here is a visual. Do you really think monochromatic is the way to go or is it time to jump on the chance to add some color?

gray or dark red....ask Larry about the gray...I let him pick it out.

chrome

Well if ya want it to stand out....pink....

chrome

Yellow or red.

Chrome vinyl ain't cheap....

...and it won't last long at all in Las Vegas...

I ordered black for mine so I could put it on any of the cars I choose. Still have not decided which to put it on. Most likely the white car once it is painted but then again, I may put it on the truck. Who knows.

Yellow would stand out nicely on your all black car however. I vote YELLOW!!!!!!!!!

In the LV sun....best to stand up is gonna be white....unless you plan on doing a replacement on a regular basis..or cover the car with a car cover..not a bad idea....

BTW...is the front plate for real?

It won't matter, he's spray painted his windows black!

YUP. The mate in on the back with a valid registration decal.
It's nice to have friends working at the DMV Special Plate Section.

I voted for White but really wanted Black. I like the stelth thing. Red would look cool but yellow would be really wild!

Oh I'm not much help at all.

gray or dark red....

I agree with the artist / creator - Dark Red or Gray.

I really don't think the black would be noticed and I do want people to be able to see it.
I want classy not flashy. Each of the choices now has at least one vote.

Sean - do you have a color sample of the Cranberry and Gray you could post?
How dark / light are they?

Just looked again. Dang that's a nice car! Nice panel alignment nice headlight cover alignment.

pretty close

You're no help Sean.
I had hoped that one of those colors would suck and I could eliminate it.
Those are both very nice and exactly what I visioned.
The stealthy black sounds good too.

Maybe it would be easier if I got 2 more teeners.
Then I could put a different color banner on each car.

pick a culur yet?

That car looks so nice just like it is, anything flashy will cheapen it. I would be hesitant to add graphics at all. From the options given, I vote gray or dark red. However, I think a darker gray would be even better. Too bad charcoal isn't an option.

Hmm... since you already have a dark visor strip at the top... I assume the new banner goes on the inside, which means the color will be muted/darkened? I think that would work to your advantage.

I voted Blue because its my favorite color on a car. But also because I think that a Dark Blue (like a Royal Blue) would still give the Stelth look, yet give it a little wow without too much zing.

Does Elvira have Blue or Dark eyes?

I dont have a clue how you drive a black car in Vegas durring the summer.

I have it narrowed down to either black or gray. I did a better mock-up (see attachment). This is the only head on shot I have. It was taken on an overcast day. I want to do another test shot tomorrow when the sun is out to compare.

Randy - This strip that is on the car now is 99% blackout. It is on the inside. The new banner will be on the outside. I agree "anything flashy will cheapen it". I want the one that blends in the most. I thought it would be the black. In these photos the grey seems better.

Toast - Elvira has blue eyes. If you want to see in person how I drive a black car in Vegas, I'll be happy to show you anytime you care to visit.

I will post a new set of pictures for final selection tomorrow.

Rats. I voted for dark red. But I guess I can't get upset when it's not my car.

-Mer

grey was my first thought [for myself], but changed to sunkist [car is gonna be gulf colors]

Hi Dave

Yeah Dave, where the hell have you beeeen?



HAY!


M

This is it. I am done painting pixels.
Here is Elvira in more typical Vegas sunshine.

Call the early voting a dead heat.
Black of grey - the final selection.

If you want your voice to be heard - speak now or forever hold your peace.

My vote is for this color.

Stop showing off.... supermodel.
