After a harsh fall and winter decided to claim some of my deflector vinyls, I decided it was time to get some new stuff for the upcoming show season. I had an idea of what I wanted so I called up James from Graphix Underground in Cedar Rapids and had him cut me some new stuff with reflective vinyl.

I got my basic text cut out of metallic silver, then put on black reflective. You can't really even tell the black is under it unless you look close (or see the reflection). The red straight jacket guy looks like normal red as well until you use a camera flash. I just wanted to show everyone the fun you can have with this stuff.

Yea, simplifies some of the basics even though it isn't 100% correct. Gives you the basic ideas though.

For the "HMFIC" and the "Des Moines Scikotics" vinyls, they actually are two pieces. The "HMFIC" one came already put together, but the big banner was some assembly required.

For everything on my deflector (HMFIC, Scikotics Banner, and Straight Jacket Guy), it was $37. I have had nothing but good experiences with James. He always does a good job for me and cut the graphics for Stephanie's car (http://www.scikotics.com/vb/showthread.php?t=7730) on extremely short notice. (She called him up Friday around 11, made the 2 hour drive over to his shop, picked out her colors, got all the stars and the banner cut, and was back home by 6ish that evening with everything....not to mention he wasn't even supposed to be in that day because his daughter had just flown in from Vegas.) I recommend his stuff to everyone.
