    Default Windshield etching

    Our newest farkle is on the windshield. It's HOG wild! As Arkansans, thus Razorback lovers, we've had a Razorback etched on our windshield with a red LED light kit. As we needed a new windshield anyway, we had Harvey, at Spyderpops, order us a new one and his VERY talented daughter did the rest. Check with Spyderpops to see what they can do for you. I believe she can probably put just about anything you want on your windshield. I have pics which I will try to add here.


    I have no trouble seeing above the hog. Looks great at night!

    It looks nice, but is the vision obstructed a bit?

    Not for me. Have no problem seeing out the windshield above the hog. Even at night with it on it doesn't obstruct my vision. Of course, you can do something smaller (or bigger, lol) to your taste.

    Sara is truly talented, she did some etching for me on the adjustable air vents and they turned out cool.

    Looks nice good to know there are others that offer that service. I think this guy was at spyderfest'15 http://www.engravingbychigger.com. My only other concern would be the amount of bug guts staining inside the engraving.

    Do it on the inside of the windshield, would solve the bug issue.


    One of the hardest decisions you'll ever face in life is choosing whether to walk away or try harder.

    I think samewok is saying that Harvey can do the lighting part of it.

    Yes, Harvey did the lighting. He can order you an LED kit made to go at the base of the windshield and can be connected up front. The cost for the etching varies by size and detail. I think the range is around $90 - $120 but check with Harvey for specifics.
