I had a 911, and it's a true story!

I saw a gladiador yesterday with a hood decal saying SRT6

The decal looks excellent.

I made these little fellas and installed them yesterday. Other than the white outline on "BUT GOOD," I think they're pretty perfect.

Nice! How did you make them? I've been meaning to buy/make a "NO SHOES NATION" hood decal.

VOLVO!? Did someone say Volvo?
Rolling Iron. ...the symbol is that of Iron, the name volvo means rolling or to roll.
I miss my Volvos....wait, no I dont. Too low to the ground, cant go off-road. Any one of my Volvo cars is the only vehicles that my disabled wife could get into by herself. They were lower than her chair. It made life easy.
My first Volvo was an '84 244GL. Company hired a helper for me, and his Grandfather GAVE him the car so he could have transportation to go to his first job. He did nothing but complain about it! "its an OLD MANS car!" and such. I bought it off him. Anyone who knows Volvo knows 1984 was THE worst year for them. Worst wiring, interior, and more. Engines were solid as all old Volvo 4-cylinders were. I learned a lot from that car. Next: '82 242 Turbo, then a 1990 744 16v GLE, best car I ever owned. Performed some minor mods. It was a sleeper. Outran a kid in an Rx7 Mazda. Won 2nd place in the 75 years of Volvo event, car show. Enjoyed the trophies from the Show's so much I obtained an '88 244DL, and rebuilt it. Long story. Volvo Mechanic friend said it was the only Volvo engine he EVER seen that needed to be rebuilt. It had holes in two pistons. Long story about it, before it was mine. Had a '89 745, that I didn't get to work on, got offered $$ for it, and let it go as-is. One of my Volvo friends, Irv Gordon, drove his 1960-something P1800 Volvo over 3 million DOCUMENTED miles. He was on David Letterman at 2 million.
Each of my cars had its own story/stories, but Ill save that for another time and place. ...the '84 244? I gave it to my stepson, who needed a car. He drove it home, where I found out years later, one of his roommate's SAWED IT IN HALF!
My apologies. I saw Volvo, and a hundred memories flooded my head! I have to see that movie, now.

I like the decal. Good Job!
I agree about the white outline....but, after looking at it, it would not be the same without it. Leave it alone. It would not look as good without it... It adds kind of aaaaa separation, I guess ya could call it.
I went to a local Shop, and had a new Rubicon decal made without its outline, and the letters in a different color.
Anyway, that is my 2 cents worth.
Oh, yeah, those Volvo 200 series models also had the nickname Brick, because of their aerodynamic shape. They looked like a Brick. Boxy fits our JT's.

Thanks. Most folks don't even notice that it's something different, which is exactly what I want.
