Interested in an AlpineZone.com window decal?

**Greg** · Nov 19, 2004, 2:50 PM

I'm working with a vinyl lettering/logo provider to get an AlpineZone.com window decal to install on the rear window of my Jeep. Based on the quality of the product, I'm hoping to offer it to forum members and site visitors. The decal will be approximately 21½" wide and 3" tall. It will look identical to the logo in the top left corner of the AZ Web site. The only difference is the top portion of the peak icon will be white, as will be the lettering. The bottom portion of the peak icon will be a very similar blue.

The cost for the decal will be about $13 each. I don't plan to make any money on these (I may even lose some), but that's a fair trade-off for the exposure. I'm hoping it will look great on dark tinted window glass, ski/snowboard cargo boxes, etc. I'll post the proof once I get it. I will also post some pics of the final product and the installation process once I receive mine.

Would this interest you? Please participate in this poll and provide any additional feedback in this thread. Thanks!

Seems awfull big for a window decal, due to NH DMV Regulations, it would be cause for a State Trooper to pull you over in NH

I agree. A bit large and a bit pricey too. Why not a Euro type sticker or your traditonal "bumpah stickah?" Maybe $5-6 or so?

I clicked no only because that's way too big!

Interesting feedback. Anyone know the specifics behind the New Hampshire DMV laws here?

Just as an FYI, this is not your standard bumper sticker. They are custom individual letters/logo that should result in a professional looking installation. There will be no visible seams or sticker border. The characters are pre-positioned on a backing paper and it seems pretty straightforward to install.

How about 14" X 2" high? I went with 3" initially as I thought that would give maximum visibilty. I thought 2" might be tough to read from a distance. And what if I could get the 2" version closer to $10?

Oh, this is a sticker type, no thanks, I thought it was pressure sensitive cling type. I do not put any glued stickers on my windows.

21 X 3 might go on the bumper. I'd be thinking of something much smaller and cheaper for a window - it might not meet your needs for visibility though, since something I'd be happy with would probably only be recognizablte by the Logo on the road, and the url could not be read - except in very slow traffic or a parking lot.

Okay, I've got the new pricing for the smaller 14" X 2" version ($7). Please see this thread and participate in this poll:
