Could you spring for some custom Air Brushing? You can get pretty much whatever you like then, Manga Cartoon, Flames, your own face, anything that you can imagine.
It's far from 'Cheap' though. Personally I don't like vinyl graphics.

Re: decals or tinting..any suggestions

I do air brushing. Not professionally though! I dojn't fancy travelling to AB though. I don't have the patience to do anything other then tears, flames, splashes and the likes, characters take too much time for me!

Thanks bud.

AB is gonna be like uber-expensive, and for windows I wouldnt recommend it, especially in an environment where you will be using an ice scraper extensively. If you want to go the decal route, I would suggest something subtle. Buy a part from somewhere and get a banner from that business.

tint

It is Illegal in Illinois to tint the front windows, unless you have some werid vision problem, and a doctor's note. But I heard that they can not pull you over for just that... but thats is what I heard.

Here is a list of states as well as the laws for that state. Many states don't allow tint on the front windows and/or windshields. I beleive all states allow the 30% factory tint that is a federal standard but IANAL. I would bet that many states don't actively enfore it other then when a cop wants to throw a book at you. At least that is the way it is here in Indiana.
