That would look sweet. I have been wanting to find a $5 or $10 hummer to make a Border Patrol Vehicle with.

Um.... I think he allready made up his mind. Plus,the Hummer from little tykes is too small for that. The roof would be very high. |

If you look at my signature I already made an Army Hummer, no rocket launcher though. |

Hmmmm.... Did it flake off?
I was wondering why you didn't just tape the sides off too.

You would have got the yellow for the stripes on the sides of the COP Car for free... |

The paint coming of im sure the spot probably wasnt totally clean maybe oily or something. I chose not to use the body for the stripe because im making my own decals and I didnt want to cut out individual letters. |

Their online store and yes it is. Now it doesnt have a shiny finish and its recommended to use the glossy laminate but I tested a piece just painting over it with clear gloss and it looked great. |

Went and bought some ink this morning and got the stripe done. The new ink cartridge made the yellow a little lighter than the previous, oh well its not too noticeable and im not changing it.

| Looks nice! Those decals are spot on! Since most of our SUVs are K9, you should make up some red K9 warning decals.. I was at Advanced Auto Parts off of Normandy Blvd last night for my mustang pw project, and they had a 12v horn with a built-in siren for i think $32.99.. And if you really wanted to be authentic, go with some blackie rims and a spotlight ;] |

Lens repair stickers, now that's a great idea Looking real nice Gambler, your kid's gonna love it. Our son (a future cop) saw a few police mods on this site and now he wants lights and sirens on his truck too.
Let us know how the Papilio stickers hold up. |
