So, as you see it — as you’re halfway there — why not go all the way?

What reaction from others are you expecting? Thumbs up? (Serious Q)

Let us know what you find once applied.

Every look invites reaction. When I was driving around in a bright red Viper with white racing stripes, that got certain reactions (speaking of police--that's the sort of car that really attracts their attention). If I was driving around in a jacked up pickup with mudders and a bull bar, that would get a different reaction. Cars wrapped in prototype camo aren't unknown, they're just not common, so I expect I'll inspire a lot of confusion. We'll see!
