A friend of mine that owns a Restaurant wants to pay me 6k to put a graphical sticker on the side of the Camaro to advertize his restaurant... Would you do it?

Camaro509 · 04-03-2009, 09:52 AM

For how long and how bad does the graphic look?

$6 K would add a lot of fun stuff to the car.

321LATER · 04-03-2009, 09:53 AM

Yeah it all depends on the size, how long you need to keep it on and the look of the logo.

6K is a lot of gas, add-ons and tires

Silver Streak · 04-03-2009, 09:54 AM

Hell yeah. I can always use $6k. How long would it be for, and can you take it off every once in awhile to have some personal time with your Camaro?

Excellent question...

$6,000? Yes. I might try to negotiate for a little more though. Maybe shoot for $8,000? Your car is going to attract a lot of attention, which will only help his business.

in a heartbeat. Anything to offset the cost.... of course first the vert needs to come out so I have a loan to offset.....

Make sure it's a magnet, not a decal. That way when you want it off for a night, it's easy to do. I'd also make sure he doesn't want you to wrap the Camaro or something like that.

rolnslo · 04-03-2009, 10:04 AM

Something to also consider...as long as you have that sticker on your car, people will associate your driving habits with the business. Don't drive like an a$$, don't flip people off, etc...otherwise your friend is going to hear about it and probably won't be happy to have that reputation spread around.

Set some ground rules (in writing), take the $6k, and head on over to your local speed shop for some sort of breathing treatment for your LS3.

If you are getting a magnet, make sure you keep the magnet side of the sign and the car extremely clean. I had that type of sign on my truck when I had my own business and even though I did my best to keep both the truck and the signs clean, I still ended up with minor scratches in the paint from the dust around the edges of the sign. If your Camaro is black, the scratches will be more visible than they were on my silver truck.

While I can't say 6k wouldn't be REAL nice, there is no way I would do it. This is (will be) my car. I personally don't need BS hanging on it. If I couldn't afford it without the 6k I shouldn't be buying it. Tell him to go buy his own- nicely. JMO.

I would put a Blue Ford oval on the doors for $6,000.00

-NOT!

Nope, not mine! I wouldn't advertise my own business on mine, but I would on my HHR...
