I like that. Where do you place it?
 
Love it. Small enough for easy portability. Do you place it under the roof before roof goes into trunk? Or can it fit in the 3/4 part of the trunk when top is down?

Mark it is small enough to place on the motor or in front of the car! I have an adjustable stand that I bought for the big 24" x 36" poster that the wind kept blowing over so I can use it on this one too!

Yes Guy it will fit underneath the top after the top is in the trunk! I would not operate the top with out removing it first it may catch it???

Looks FANTASTIC!!! Wish I had the time or the knowledge to do the same for mine!!
 
I plan on trying this. I just don't have patience. Lol. I must do this, and try before April 12th. Because that's the day of the carshow and spring fest in fruitcove fl

What do you do about the hood and trunk lights? I guess I haven't had the car long enough to know if they turn off on a timer or not. I've only been to one car show and was afraid that leaving the trunk open would drain the battery.

Eventually they will turn off. I'm guessing 15 min or so. I've left mine up and the lights go off in around that time frame.

Hey guys this is not all that hard it's mostly copy and paste and place it where want it on your poster! The wording I wrote up and saved it on Word doc and just copy and paste it. You need to use the use you own design poster. Staples.com will help you if you have questions. I did the fading around the top down picture with free side of Photo editor | PicMonkey: Free Online Photo Editing under the draw tab on the left side just play with it you will figure it out that what I did! You get most of the other picture from the internet or I can email them to you!

Great. I'm thinking of redoing mine. It was a fast job. But hey it looked alright. I was at the car show today and was checking others out to see what they did.

Oh btw. I got a lot of lookers and interested people today. They didn't believe me when I told them she was a 06. And a lot of ppl said that was the best color. Sorry guys and gals that have other colors

I just completed a second display board. I still have the one but I wanted to do one that has the trifold. This way I can stand it up straight and also have more to display.
Here is the old one.

car show and fun fest here in st augustine fl

just thought id pass along this info. The pre registration is closing in for the cut off date that saves you $5. So after august 1st then you will have to pay #30 . But you can always pay at the show if they have space. Pay at the show during the hrs of 8-10 AM But you might not get your dash plaque. The website if you have questions is 404 - File or directory not found. The new event place is here in st augustine florida. There is a map of the location on the flyer and on their FB page. Just search first coast car council on FB.

Here is the flyer.
