Team Corvette on windshield
I know this has been discussed here before, but searches don't uncover what I am looking for. I want to put colored highlighting behind the Team Chevrolet logo and want to know the best material and methods. I am also concerned about removal, if it fades and needs to be removed, what is best method?

My car is silver so I took a piece of silver cardboard from a Diet Coke 12-pack and it worked fine. Less calories too.

Outdoor rated vinyl from the craft store is what people are using.

I used white cardboard, I don't believe it will fade but replacement is free if it does. I know several people who tried red and didn't like the look! I know one guy who used colored document binders from Staples and cut to size!
If it fades slide a putty knife or similar under it and drag it out !

I used white cardboard and a small roll of vinyl from Hobby lobby. Very cheap mod. About 7 bucks

I couldn’t get anything to slide in between the glass and the dash?

Okay I will try that. I did try sliding in a piece of construction paper and that didn’t work. Did you attach a piece of the vinyl mentioned here to the card stock? Thanks, Sam

Dollar store or Walmart, buy a colored vinyl binder for $2 or less… cut to size double it up and use a set of hemostats to slide it in place, call it a day.
