I think the best solution would be to put them on the inside. Only prob. would be people with tinted windows, but it would be much more durable than just a normal sticker.

I'm not for tint anyway, loose too much visibility. I wouldn't mind the outside or the inside ones really. prefer the outside, no reason why tho, lol. dunno

Mercedes Benz has some very nice authentic mileage badges. Youll see them on the front grille of a lot Benzos.

I believe the highest recorded mileage for any car is a Mercedez Benz with over 1.1 million miles. 60s sedan I think. I remember a MB commercial touting it a long time ago. Owned by an older couple.

I think they'd make awesome quarter window adornment on the 944, possibly on the hatch, definitely not on the bumper - maybe I'll take a whack at making a few. . . I've got some good vinyl stock kind of like Travis has, but I think in any case cutting the various pieces out by hand and then constructing it out of the proper vinyl colors would be a helluva lot better quality and last a million times longer than anything printed on a home inkjet.

What mileages do they do? I'm aware of the 100K km and 250K km. . . are there others?
