3rd Brake Light Decal?

Does anyone have a decal on their 3rd Brake Light?

I have seen the ones that just say SATURN and well you all know how I feel about calling her a Saturn... but I finally found where they will do one for whatever you want to say... so I am thinking either SINISTER or just SKY.

If you have one how do you like it?
If you don't what do you think of one?

Thanks!

Got my customized one from a place on ebay called Sterling Decals for 12 bucks

I like mine. It is tricky to get on just right, so you might want to buy two of them in case you mess up the first one. But once installed properly it looks great. Get lots of compliments.

Hubby ordered me the one that says Saturn and it was easy to put on.
I do like it BUT I will probably order one that says Redline & change it out at some point down the road.

You can find them on ebay for about 10 bucks and they will print what ever you want them to say. They look very cool and I would say its the cheapest mod that looks like something way more expensive. Even the wife who is so picky was the one that 1st saw it and said we have to do that mod and she is not one to pay that much attention to the car.

I have the one that says, "Saturn," and I like it! I'm tired of having to tell people what kind of car it is and I'm proud to own a car that looks and drives like this and is more affordable. I thought about getting the "Redline" decal, but it already says "Turbo" on the back, and if they don't know what "Turbo" is, then they probably don't have a clue what a "Redline" is. I'm not one for pretending to be something I'm not. If I really wanted to impress people with an exhorbitantly expensive car, I'd buy one somehow--I'd probably have a smaller house, tell the kids to put themselves through college, and/or get a job that required more travel. I love my RL for what it is to me, not what it is to others. Do I envy those folks with more expensive cars? Honestly, yes, sometimes, but I don't envy them their maintenance costs and there are times when I feel a little self-conscious driving my Sky, much less a Porsche or Ferrari. Maybe it's because I don't consider people with more money to be any better than the average joe, just more fortunate.

I have the redline decal also (see avatar). Only mine is on straight, sorry KentuckySky couldn't resist.

Kim, I think you should go with either Sinister or Sexy. But since the Saturn logo is right below it, Sexy Saturn has a nice ring to it. That way it fits both the car and the driver.

Sit back, relax have a glass of wine and enjoy your car. It is beautiful and you deserve it.

DO NOT DO IT!!!! THEY DO NOT STICK WELL!! They do not shape around the light and bubble. I ordered mine from the guy in Canada and the type was so fat you could not read it, so I thinned out the font and sent it back to him and it was more readable but the chrome would not wrap around the light and bubbled up.

I went through acustom Vinyl lettering guy in NY and used the font from my hood and Leather Visor covers on the third brake light. I made it to match body color so you only notice it when you hit the brake light. Way nicer than the crap on EBAY!!! Go to a sign shop and they will make one for you!!

Are these decals applied to the outside of the brake light or on the inside. Is it one piece or individual letters that you have to line up? Does it black out the the cover when applied?

I like your font. What is it. The Sterling guy on ebay jacked up his price after I bought. It used to only be $6 or $7 shipped. I can't make myself spend $12 dollars on a sticker. I should have went out to the decal shop and had them make a bunch more. Thinking about selling any of those X-micro?
