    So im having my echo painted..the body parts that got hit..and im gonna buy some black rims and paint the hood black.

    This is what im wondering..Could you make me a roll call for the drivers side of the hood in the color of the rest of the car [dark mettalic blue]

    i can get pics of the manufactors for you if you think this is do-able..Give ya something to do till i get the rest of the payment up.

    It's possible I can request the prexisting art and/or fonts to use from the companies if I don't have them. What color are you thinking about?

    I thought vinyl's on the hood were usually a no-no considering the amount of heat that can be built up there....

    I could be wrong though...

    Temp specs for alum:

    Orical 651
    -40°F to +176°F

    Avery A4, A6
    -40°F to +176°F

    3M Scotchcal 50 series
    -40°F to +176°F

    I would assume the melting temp is higher for steel.

    Ever touched your hood after a hard day of drivin? lol

    I guess the echo might stay a bit cooler than the celi's..... But wouldn't paint be a better option for him in the long run?

    The 1nzfe is all aluminum too so..And its a real popular thing to do around here and i thougth it looked kinda cool

    I would want the roll call to be the same color of the car..or as close as possible..its a dark mettalic blue..[navy blue]

    I can use the same dark blue as the ovals if you want or use this other reflective blue material.

    Does the oval blue have mettalic in it?
    if not maybe the reflective would be better..i want ppl to be able to see the decals.

    No and I don't think we have anything on hand that's metalflake besides gold, silver and the reflective colors (black, red, blue and yellow). Check out any handicap parking sign and that's the blue. I don't think you want white, but I think I'd do white or silver on a dark blue car.

    What logos do you want to use for the stack?
