Hey everyone...I need your input and ideas.

I am doing a Patriot Run in September for Fallen Officers and Firefighters of Florida and a local vendor is donating his time and labor to wrap my Chally in a theme for the run.

I am looking for input on some ideas that may look good and to grab peoples attention to the charity. Please let me know what you think...no idea is a bad one so let em fly!!!! Thanks.

Here"s a pic of my car so you can visualize it.

Post a newer pic with wheels, it looks great. This is a very worthy cause everyone, we are also thinking of doing a local show to benefit this cause and run.

Actually have Justin from Redline Design offering to do it. He was the guy that did the Z at the show for the "Support the Troops"

I love the idea, and I've been thinking about attending this event - I think we should try and get a large showing for our club.

I'm going to spend tonight at work looking at some sites and getting some ideas. The first thing that came to mind when I heard about this was FDNY's Ladder 10 and Squad 61.

Obviously these are 9/11 based, but it's something possibly to start with. I'll post up anything else I can find throughout the night.

I will probably keep it on there for awhile to create awareness to the charity.

As promised - I did some research - here's a nice image from the Florida FOP memorial website that you might be able to incorporate.

And the Florida Fallen Firefighters Memorial Flag:

And here's some websites to look at for inspiration

Officer Down Memorial Page (ODMP) (http://www.odmp.org/)

Florida State FOP (http://www.floridastatefop.org/fop_home.asp)

National Fallen Firefighters Foundation (http://www.firehero.org/)

Florida Fallen Firefighter Wall of Honor (http://www.myfloridacfo.com/sfm/fffwallmemorial.htm)

Are you taking off all of your decals that are on the car now or are you working around them?

guys I am going to the designer on Monday and they will be wrapping the car on Thursday or Friday. Does anyone have any other ideas?

Remember this is for 9/11 and the charity is fallen officers and firefighters.

I like the battered flag idea.

I was thinking about this image on the roof.

That would be cool for the sides...have the city running down the sides of the car...the firefighter just forward of the rear wheel well...and the have you forgotten on the doors....
