Maybe a nice logo, like a Lighthouse, with rays of light reaching out, and something like "Falcon's Home For Wayward Girls" in a nice script style font?
It would be easy to cover the windows with a perforated vinyl decal. You can still see out of the window but your design/logo can be printed on a piece of vinyl to suit your needs. Then you'd have a little more security and a cool look. :LOL:

That's a very good point Ryan! They've done exactly that on the public transportation buses around here, with fancy graphics for the Royals, Chief's or special groups. The people inside have pretty much unrestricted view through the pinholes, and the added bonus is that the interior runs much, much cooler with most of the radiant energy of the sunshine reflected.Quote:

Are you sure you got it all, that's a lot of metal, a guy could easily miss a spot you know !:LOL:
Aw man; don’t freak me out!
I'm also the guy at work that walks past the newbie's and say " Your sure you got all the rods and mains torqued aren't you? " Of course I wait till they have the pan on before I ask. :LOL:Quote:

He let the deal continue until I was just getting ready to pull the first pan and see which engine I had screwed up!!! Aren't friends great?????Quote:
