Question HWFM Racing Removable Decals

I'm trying to judge potential demand...

I love my HWFM Racing bumper stickers, but am loathe to use a permanent sticker on my daily driver. One option that dawned on my while I was having the West Coast Banner made was a removable sticker. As many folk use static cling vinyl numbers on their cars for DE, why not get static cling vinyl bumper stickers made? They can be made with the "cling" on the back to put on the outside of your car or they can be made with the "cling" on the front to allow you to put them in your window. They would be able to be applied and removed multiple times.

Would you be interested in a sticker like this at $7 each?

How about special order decals w/10" numbers for DE's? Or is that too much?

A decal with room for a 10" number is approx $300 for both sides of the car.

Nope -- the Turtle HWFM logo with the name removed to make room for racing numbers.

I'm going to do it over the winter.

A clear background could be done (I saw a couple examples) it would just cost more. I thought about $7 each was steep enough for the standard decal.

I have used "fast meatballs" numbers for a couple of years. They are black on a clear background and easily removable. I've never had one come off while driving. My guess is that he will sell you the material and you could cut to any size and apply whatever decals you like or order the numbers with enough room for the decals. His website is fastmeatballs.com.

Mike,

I received the hat, t-shirt, and decal today. You (and Princeton) did a wonderful job on all of the above!

My wife had an interesting look in her eyes when I put the decal on her Range Rover today - right next to the Skip Barber, Mid Ohio, Road America, and VIR stickers. Am I a class act or what?
