Okay everybody, here's the plan.

I've got a 92 subaru Legacy Wagon that I'm going to be covering with graphics.

Well, let me clarify that statement. FIRST OFF, i'm going to be covering the Windows with graphics, starting with the Rear Hatch.

The company I used to work for specialized in Vehicle Graphics, and here in the next couple of months I would like them to do my windows, SO.

Curious to see what kind of ideas you all have in mind. I'm not very computer savvy, or photoshop savvy, or artwork savvy.....you get the point.

The process that they used is basically what you see on some of the buses driving around, where the windows look like pictures. You can see out, but you can't see in.

I'm trying to come up with some design ideas, and figured I'd come to you, o photoshop gods and goddesses, for some help.

The Hatch window is pretty large, and I want to get a really cool design for the Broncos logo on there. You can use actual photos, graphics, any color scheme...pretty endless in terms of artistic licensing.

Like I said, the Hatch window is first, and I want to do something with the Bronco Logo. The sides are probably going to have players on them, though I"m not sure which ones yet.

ANYWAYS, I would really appreciate any ideas, artwork, feedback..yada yada, as I'm going to be representin the team here and I want to make it look good.

And by the way, I WOULD have gone straight to the art guys at my former employer, but they're all from back east and none of them are Broncos fans, so I wouldnt want them half assin it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

GO BRONCOS

Just say "NO" it'd be one thing if it were a newer car that you'd like to attract attention to, but i've never been a fan of an older car having items on the car that scream look @ me, regardless of the owner's intentions

First off,thanks for the advice. :)

My car really doesn't look old at all. Paint's still in great shape, one dent in the back, but other than that, it looks pretty much like the day it rolled off the assembly line.

I wanted to tint the windows, and get some great Bronco paraphanelia, so i'm killing two birds with one stone.

Judging from the huge response to this thread LOL I imagine there are probably more in your camp than mine. So I guess oh well, I'll post some pics of the after photos when they're finally on there.

Old or not, this car's gonna be representin the Orange and Blue

Right on Bronconia. Roll with it brother! If I would have listened to people who said "You are friggen nuts if you think that old bus will look good in orange and blue and make a good tailgating vehicle". I had alot of negative feedback initially and I IGNORED ALL OF IT.

This pic was taken the first time I stepped foot on what is now OF1. It was pretty rough back then. Even Disco said "You sure this is the one Meck?"

I sent an email to DenverTucsonLink Bronconia. He was my main partner and leader of the restoration project. He'll have alot more insight on how to "pimp your ride" Broncos style. He just doesn't pimp a ride. He is a true artist with vehicles.

Don't give up man!

DenverTucsonLink, Myself, and the rest of the OF1 construction crew aren't done yet either. We have much bigger plans than OF1 that I can't reveal just yet.

i think it is a great idea. You live in denver so the chances of it being vandalized are minimal (except the bronco limo). I remember pimping up my 4 door nissan sentra as a teenager. I look back and think how gay but you got the right idea in the right town. Why not? You arent trying to look like mr pimp car like i did. GO FOR IT!

We had this guy in our KANSAS CITY BRONCOS club painted his 4x4 Ford Bronco orange and blue with hand painted Bronco logo on the hood. Awesome but I wondered how long before some A-hole would screw with it, well it got keyed twice, right on the logo on the hood !

I don't even put a Broncos bumper sticker on my three nice rides, my daily driver is 86 Chevy Caprice with over 200k on here. No rust but faded all to hell. I have Broncos gear on it year around, WTF they can't really hurt that car.
