I had an outside decal on my BMW for a little over 2 years and I never faded or came off. Plus the decals are usually no more than like $10-25 so if I had to replace it once a year or so not the end of the world.

I like that. Do you have any pics looking out of the windshield? To see visibility and that stuff? Even though I am 99.9% sure that is absolutely illegal for DD lol

There is...I decided to replace my front bumper (after someone backed into it) so i tried using wet sand and bondo and repainting the old one and it turned out pretty sweet. but after the winter ill through the new one on. I like the subie logo although im in the process of designing and making a new one...85 hour work weeks making that a bit tricky
