>My kids got me a great gift. They took pics of me doing track days, and

>cut the scanned vinyl with an exacto, and Voila!- on the back of the truck. 
>I placed them so the tires on right on top of a black plastic filler at the 
>top of the bumper, so it kinda looks like the tires are on asphalt. It is 
>cool when I'm stopped at a light, and I see a guy on a sporty bike come up 
>behind me to a stop. More often than not, I will see him in my side mirror 
>come to a stop behind me, look at the back doors, and then look quickly up 
>at my side view mirror that I am watching them from. If they have a clear 
>shield, or shield up, they are always smiling. Sometimes they'll see me

>when people comment on the stickers in person while standing at the truck 
>(if they don't know me personally) they'll sometimes say, "Pretty cool- 
>where did you get the images from- some magazine or something?" Incredibly 
>(bad me for fantasizing otherwise), they just figured I took some pictures 
>that I thought were cool and printed them to put on the truck. NO PEOPLE- 
>That's ME in the pictures!!!!! "Oh wow, that's you?" Never mind- the wind 
>is already out of my sails. I assumed that everyone who saw the decals 
>would just automatically assume that it was me-the obvious superhuman- in 
>the decal. Oh well, back to earth.

>They are cool, though.
