I just put mine on and I have to say it does block visibility. Hopefully, it'll get me more street races though :smile:

Well, my truck came with the original rolled up in a baggie. I put it on and loved it till my stupid wiper blade ripped off part of N i think. Lesson, old stickers dont stick.

Atleast make sure you mega-clean the surface, alcohol and all.

I have one on and love it too. I think it makes the truck a little more sporty. My friends comment on it a lot. One of the Rustangs tried to copy and put a "Mustang GT" on his. :grin: Anyone have an extra one? For cheap?

These trucks are cursed
i like the banners, but since i dont have the sy decals anywhere on my sy, i didnt want a big bright red sy banner on my truck, so i had one made in black. now i know everyone is thinking "black??? thats lame you cant see it!" which is exactly the point! at night you cant really see it, and during the day its visible when the sun reflects off the windsheild. i personally love it! besides, with my truck i think it would be stupid to have ghost flames and everything on the truck completely black, then have a giant bright red sy sticker! it would ruin the whole stealth look that im goin for. although thats just my opinion and my truck!

Thumbs up to defiled, just keep it away from your rear end.

Good idea, and you got me thinking...

ncsyclone.. Are those replicas of the original with the contour in them to match the windsheild? (scanned mine prior to installation for later use)

dont have one. have been wanting to get one for over a year now :grin:
I cant do much for stealthness. its kinda hard to cover up a bright white SUV with big Bling-Bling rims rollin at ya or next to you at a light. might as well be as flashy as I can :grin:

Of the 4 Syclones I have owned. Two had the banner and 2 did not. The remaining survivor has the banner. I love it.
Hi Norman. If you don't mind, can I ask why specifically you love it? I have been considering one and my girlfriend has really been pushing it. I wonder if it will get me more races. I want to get more races. I was thinking of getting the door-sized ones and putting one of those up there so it not only doesn't reduce visibility but isn't so monstrous.

And for everyone's benefit, the place to get the windshield banners is Graphik Concepts, the people who made them for GM. They are 20-30 dollars if my memory serves correct. Just visit http://www.graphikconcepts.com and send an email to their sales person asking for Syclone/Typhoon/SonomaGT (Whatever) Windshield banner sticker pricing and they will email you a MS Word Document!!! Cheers!

Someone said it "cuts down on visibility"? What the hell are you talking about? I have 8 inches of limo black across the top of my windshield and the sun still bites my eyes comming home at 5:00. You must either be really tall or drive like a grandma if the sticker "cuts down on visiblity"! I just hope that no one drilled into their roof to mount one of those ugly ass, base ball cap looking, with the semi truck looking marker lights on it, vent visors. I hate those made for a Ford Stranger looking pieces of aftermarket crap!

If I sit straight up in my seat my head almost touches the ceiling of the cab. When looking through the winshield my vision is of the top area.. This is the main reason why I haven't ordered a banner yet.. It looks cool from the outside, but if that sticker causes me to hit something accidently due to blocked vision I'm not sure what I would do..

I have one on mine and I love it. It ties in the stock graphics perfectly and looks awesome. I think it attracts races and can make alot of uninformed people think it is like the Extreme, all looks and no go. Then they get the suprise of their life! Can't tell you how many porsche, BMW and other drivers that I have suprised the hell out of in the Boston area!
