Custom rear window signage

Best place to get?

Does the law state that they can only be a certain size in your rear window?

    Just a thought have you seen the Car Door Magnets on Vistaprint may be something else to consider.

    Also don't forget if you do get the stickers or magnets ensure to purchase enough for all family and friends cars.

    Also another tip, a way to establish how good that form of advertising works is to purchase the mydomainname.net and have this on the stickers, set the .net domain so it redirects to your everyday site and you site counter will show how many came via the .net...hope that makes sense.

    Don't forget to get some quotes from local car/van signage companies, you will be suprised how cheap they can be and the quality can be better than DIY

    we use a local company to us, every sign company and most digital printers can now produce the graphics.

    don't think there are any legal issues one option would be to use contra vision the one way stuff. (though if the car gets dirty alot its not use).

    I think the law may differ between vans and cars. I am not 100% though.

    In cars you are not supposed to have any obstructions blocking your rear window view.

    Hi,
    We got a graphic for across the top of the rear car window, from a local signage/graphics firm. It cost £16. They knew exactly what size to make it from the make and model of car.
    It has our logo followed by our web address.
    We were so pleased with it we got them to do our window graphics at our premises.
    regards,
    hunnie

    Already got the car magnets from vistaprint. They're pretty good to be honest.

    Yes, got a few domain names. Didnt think of doing that to see how many came from that route. Good idea.
