Covering Up Police Markings

[EXNODRAMANOTCH]

I'm lucky as I only have to cover a door shield on the passenger side of my MN SSP. Here is the design I came up with today. The rounded corner magnet is 12" x 18", and I just ordered a pair (might use them on both sides) for $25 including shipping.

Shouldn't it be "Not In Service"? Since the car is not a serviceable vehicle it really can't be Out of Service as it cannot be put back into service. Technicality but I was just curious. Otherwise good idea and looks nice!

That looks pretty good, and you can't really argue with the cost.

We had a discussion about this not too long ago. The thread ended up discussing far more than the proper wording. Here is it...

I'd lose the badge also...it gives the impression that it is a service vehicle.

It was a "service vehicle" and the badge relates to all the equipment that can be seen from outside the vehicle. And as in "out of production" it will never be in service again. "Not in service" implies to me that it could be "in service" at a later date, which is not true. I already ordered and paid for them and I like them just the way they are. You can design and order yours any way you like.

I won't have a need for them....I plan on trailering my marked cars when I go to shows.

(I also won't be getting shot at by bad people who won't take the time to read all of that and might think you are actually an LEO).

This is what my car looks like when i drive on the street
.....on the way to a car show
Idaho/Arizona

This is what my car looks like at 7:30am on the way to a
car show as i am putting on the (say nothing) white magnetic strips
and I stop process to take a picture of my friend that has
just pulled in behind me.Don't have the first one on straight
because i ran to get the camera.


this topic is re visited from time to time
and people are not gonna change
what is gonna change is the local laws
regarding these cars if we don't
start using common sense
also.....my car has unique
Historic Vehicle plates
when driven on the street.

but no Badges.
