Hi, I recently bought a 2017 Race Red Mustang GT with white stripes going down the middle. I like BOINC a lot (it's the future and Samsung has caught on) and would like to put it on top of my front windshield. It will be on the top 4 inches of the windshield which is legal in California. I've looked up the rights to the BOINC logo and it seems like I should be good to go, but I just wanted to make sure that BOINC wants this. I have mufflers on my Mustang, but there is an x-pipe replacing the resonator. It's not the classiest car ever but it does get some looks. |

Just to be sure, I forwarded your question to David Anderson. |

I have stickers for organisations that I'm a member of on my car - they get me free parking at some venues. Other people have bumper stickers - either jokes, or showing support for environmental or political causes. I doubt something like that would cause any problems, and might spark some interesting conversations. But I'd steer clear of a giant-sized paint job that might imply sponsorship or endorsement by the wider BOINC community. Might not look good if you found yourself in an embarrassing position while driving it! |

Yeah I'm looking into just getting a custom car decal made of the BOINC logo like at the top left of this forum. The logo isn't bad tbh. I could see me putting it on the top center of the windshield. Not sure how it would look however... it's not a very long logo so it would need to be stretched out. I was actually thinking of doing a little BOINC paint job on my beater long ago. Not so much on this one, but if I had the cash I would definitely do it in some way. Kinda like how Deadmau5 painted his Ferrari with nyan cat. When you have so many cars, why not do wacky stuff like that?? |

I'd be delighted if you put the BOINC logo on your Mustang! Please send me a picture. -- David Anderson |

Clearly I'm not the OP nor is this a mustang but my wife made this decal using her silhouette machine for our car just last week and thought I would share |
