To advertise myself I am adding some decals, this is a photoshop of what they will kind of look like. Plus, they will double my rwhp.

I sell real estate, I use it to haul clients around in. This way it is a mobile billboard for me. If I want to remove them all I will have to do is just peel off the stickers.

I liked the features of the RS1, a white one would have been nice to put decals on as well. The Hot Lava color really stands out and I need all the draw possible, a white might just blend in with the thousands of other white vehicles out there.

yes! make the graphics a little smaller and more tasteful add some nice wheels/tires then you will attract more than just possible fares (taxi hahaha)

how about doing a silve with a black outline or a black with silver outline? that would look good.

Gardiner

I think the sign guys is going to shrink the domain name down to one line and make it white with a black shadow. The siver sounds nice, I will ask him about that. Thanks for the thoughts.

How about fitting the emovingbox.com on one of side doors? Would look nicer and more visible. Do you have any plans for the liftgate?

Remove the emblems and more room for "Ad" space.

Oh my. I guess it's a good way to get people to notice you, even if it doesn't excactly look great.

I got the ideal to use it for a billboard after seeing some photo of other xB done up. Here is one that I thought looks nice.

That one has a cool design yours doesnt. Yours just has a bunch of words on it. Come up with a cool design and put in the correct place. I dont think your costumers will like to roll around in an orange box with a bunch of words and numbers on it. :wink:

Another thing I noticed your box is completely stock. Get some new rims and tail lights or somthing.

I am planning on some 17 or 18 wheels, maybe a cat back exhaust, tinting the front windows to match the back ones and a set of fog lights.

Why do you have so many website adresses on your car? Do you really need that many? Take off "This box moves people" you dont need that. The way you have the car setup it screams taxi/ad agency. You need to give the letters a cooler design it looks so boring.

dude.... repaint the car to look like it's actually a brown cardboard box!!! With the logo and sch on the box itself... that'd be what i would do. You wanna be different right? You did buy a bB for a reason

What would look great and realy attract attn. is have the box covered in woodgrain like the old stationwagons the get the graphics done in the stamp font. It would look like a crate on wheels plus your lava paint would be protected untill it gets used for what it was intended for. If not the car is an attn. getter without the big graphics, go smaller or just across the front and rear windows your customers will defn. appreciate it :idea: :!: 8)

I would put the phone number underneath your domain name...

Anyways....If you are hauling clients around, dont you think an exhaust and the bumpy ride of low profile tires awould nnoy your clients.

last time i looked for a house, i was in a plush e500

I agree. You're a real estate agent, right? So just use the NeighborhoodsofAtlanta.com address. (By the way, I wouldn't capitalize the "h" in "Neighborhoods.") That's the easiest one to remember and makes the most obvious point that you're a Realtor. Be sure to include the phone number on the back, too.

Have your designer do something interesting with the domain name and put it on the side maybe, or else enlarge the Chapman Hall logo so it's legible on the front door. (And hey, so long as you have fun, it's fine. Besides, all that vinyl peels right off when you go to sell the car or get tired of the design and change it up.)

Something nice and simple usually looks best. Definitely do not put exhaust if you will be carrying people. Here is a shot of my lava
