Here is the scoop...
I just purchased a '95 ford probe. I know, I know I got it for cheep..:}
the car is totaly black! It just makes me drool looking at it. I want to do something to show off my talent, but I don't want it looking like an overdone clown car. I have been thinking about it for some time and have come up with some ideas.

Idea 1 .. do a burn out effect that I saw in Sign Business with my logo in the burn out on the door. but with some of the logo onto the original black {burn out would only go 3/4 way through the door}.. where my logo goes onto the original black. make the logo look like its trying to push thru the car.. lots of shading of greys and streching metal. With cracked sidewalk on the bottom of the car in a traditional flame effect...

Idea #2.
Doing a lightning effect{Blues, Purples, and white} all over the car striking my logo on the side of the door sort of "Energysing" it!. With a cool quote about we put new energy into your signs...........

What do you all think?

Thanks..

I like idea #2, sounds like a cool project.
You could change the message that goes with it every so often:

"Get struck by great design"
"We light up your name"
"Power advertising" or whatever [Smile]
