displaying your MPG
this is an idea that I have been playing around with for a while. I stole an idea from another member (can't remember his name, fordguy maybe) and put a white board in my back side window. my wife thought it looked horrible but it was changable.
my biggest problem was that when I went to change lanes, I would check the mirror and then twist my head to check the blind spot and there was "SOMETHING" there all the time. I was very concerned that I was going to wack someone because of it so I have been searching for an alternative.
my idea was static stick lettering and numbers. my mom used to use these types of things on the glass storm doors during christmas time. obviously it wasn't numbers but frosty the snowman and other characters. I knew I had seen them before so I continued to search. I was looking through the summit racing catalog and came across something. it was meant for track times but it serves the purpose. I had to cut out the MPG myself out of leftover vinyl.
my wife said that it was cheesy but looked a lot better than the white board. I put in pics of the finished product along with the package of numbers and the white board. kind of a before and after shot.
