    Default In Memory decals

    when my car gets finished with its paint job I have a Mustang decal to go on the bottom rocker and I want to put an In Memory Of decal somewhere on the car for my mom who was the original owner.

    Since I have a convertible my rear glass is small. All the websites I browsed show decals that seem to take up a lot of space. I was thinking a long narrow decal along the bottom edge of the glass. I thought about on the trunk below the rear spoiler but I don't wanna cover the new paint.

    Anybody have suggestions or examples of an In Memory Of decal that wont totally obscure my rear glass?

    Just contact a local sign or decal shop. They can probably show you several examples or you can give them your basic outline and they can show you fonts and style differences.

    Frank, it would be a nice touch on the quarter window glass potentially, and maybe even a cling-on version to put on from the inside. I have a friend that does this and he's local to us. Let me know if you need any help.

    Have you thought of etching abrasively or chemical?
    Moving windows can play havoc with decals.
    My first wife did it by cutting out a mask with clear contact paper, and then spread a chemical in a cream form on the glass.
    I can dig out an example I tried years ago.
