Well, would be cool I guess, BUT if your thinking about doing it in the front, idk how you would put it on there having the back of the ring still on, unless you cut it or something

I don't like the look of the "A" without the circle. I think it looks like tweezers for some reason.

No, I was just doing what Sandy did (look at the pic I quoted - same as mine with circle - like that much better)...and that's because I washed it and forgot to straighten it all the way when I hit it! Pain in the ass! Gotta be careful dawg!

Don't be hatin'!! NBP mofo!!

Nisha (means NIGHT in India - you know ya boyyy!) has never been buffed, polished, or waxed! That's plain old elbow grease, Meguiar's Gold car wash, and H20!! Fa sho!! But it's in the plans, cuz it may not show right now, but have a lil...waiting until next year, after the winter to repaint and do the clearbra!

Yeah the friggen inspection sticker makes me want to All I need to do is remove it and give the cops one more reason to stop me. I'm curious to see what Ray's excuse for not having one is because I love how clean it makes his winshield. Shit i'm ready to go scrape mine off right now lol On another note I'm coming down to Virginia the weeknd of Dec 7-9 and we def need to get a lil mini meet going on somewhere between richmond and va beach!

I took night pics tonight...but they came out !! I gotta try again tomorrow! I have Photoshop Pro 9.0 CS2 and have absolutely no idea how to use it! For that matter, I'm winging my Nikon D80!!

That avatar shot is with the D80, but if I knew how to work software good, I could have made it look even better! That's an untouched photo. I'm a DSLR noob! hahahahahha..me and Bally!! yeah you too!

I saw you ask about those cameras. I am going manual tomorrow if the sun is out, so I can use it at night! You n Evader should draw a smiley face on that ugly ass yellow VA sticker!

I wonder if that guy found someone that had the A without the circle...I hope not...cuz then he might do it!

its seems like how the those ugly mustangs have a ford emblem or whatever...but the cobras have the Cobra emblem..how it stands out from the other fords...kinda like that...it makes it stand out to those who are into cars and whatnot...i just found it sexy as hell... lol

Thanks alot!

Still working on the whole getting better at Photoshop..haha I think the original is better than my edit haha

lilndnplaya..dont do the emblem, it dont fit to begin with, and when its on, it wont look that great, it will look too small. Do what you do, but thats just my opinion. And it would look alot better in the rear, and actually fit too.

I've seen one 3GTL on this site (can't remember where) with the "A" without the circle on the rear trunk lid. It looked pretty cool. Go for it.

Everybody keeps saying "I can't remember where"...phantom "A"...don't do it man, it doesn't look right...i was just looking at mine on the back and imagining it without the ring, and it would get lost in the whole scene back there...I might as well debadge completely if I was going to do that...maybe if I actually see it, I might see your vision.
