I wouldn't either. If you do, how about IS300 or IS300.net. You can get them at their web site.

Also check the laws in your state. Lettering on the glass may be illegal over a certain size....for visibility reasons. Some states, also, do not allow dark tinted or one-way glass because police have been shot during routine traffic stops when they couldn't see who was in the car or what they were carrying.

Hey...the IS300 is the ULTIMATE SI. (Or, should I say....the IS300 Sportcross ).
Half the guys driving them got their caps on backward.....right, amigos?

Nope, no crack for me....just stating a fact. Here in Northern Virginia a lot of IS300 guys are part of the caps-on-backward crowd ( though the IS300, obviously, is drarfed by the huge number of slammed Hondas). This is a big-money area (second in the nation)...even for young guys in their 20's.
In fact, it was the auto enthusiast magazines ....Car and Driver, Road and track, Automobile, etc...that coined the phrase " Ultimate Gen. X machine " , not me.

Believe it or not, many sponsors don't want the top of the windshield for the banner. When you're at shows with the hood up, you can't see the upper part of the windshield. Unless you're sponsored or advertising, don't do any type of decal.
