Default cool shark emblems available

Just found this really cool shark emblem and just thought I would pass it along for other shark owners to look at. The only downside is they are I believe plastic. For 8.00 I thought it was worth it. Go to glidersusa.com and look under the emblem section. I am not asscoiated with this or any related company. They are actually down Randys way...I love where it says on his site that "this is a non-profit business, all the profits go to my wife".

Same here. I like it but I don't know where I'd put it. Perhaps somewhere conspicuous that enables an easy removal. Heck, I don't even have my car, yet! Come on Sunday/monday! Tick, tock, tick, tock....

Put it on the under side of the hood.

That is a great call! Now I wonder if it would withstand the heat!

Nah... I want it to be visible. Some possibilities I can think of ATM:

Tool cover
Rear glove box cover
Grill
Rear bumper on rubber

The last is the least likely, I think. The glove box cover is only a bit more likely. I may go with one of the other two, but will not know till I have it and have had a chance to play with different ideas.

I am thinking right under the wing on the right side hatch. Says they can be removed with care.

How about where the Euro models have their side marker? Too bad they don't make these in both directions. But then again, I don't think I'd put it on anyway.

How about on the back window under the stop light if you have an '86 or newer?

I am now actually considering placing it in the corner of a nice license plate bracket on the back.

A 3D one would make a really cool antenna ball. Oh ya. . . . I don't have an antenna.

Funny you metioned a 3-d one. It isnt an antennae ball but I found this really cool shark ( about 2" long ) keychain at the discovery science store here at the mall. Actually my daughter found it and insisted I get it for the shark. You pull back on the dorsal fin and the mouth opens and glows a red light to use to find the lock at night. I am done with the shark stuff. Not going to overdo it.

Got mine. They are exactly 4" from snout to tip of tail, 2-9/16" from tip of pectoral fin to tip of dorsal.
