Bowtie in Rear Window
 
Any of you guys have a picture of this? Im thinking about buying one for the rear window. Anyone know how big it should be? I think some of the options were 18", 24", 36" across. TIA

Does it inhibit your view substantially?

Actually no. My wife believes I suffer scatch that, she suffers from my occd in that everything has a place and I can't operate a car if theres items hang from the mirror or stacked on the dash or rear deck...bugs the well it irritates me but I barely notice the bow at all. kind off a field of vision thing where you look thru and beyond filling in the blocked spaces in your mind. like the pillars you can see thru them.
31 x 12 just seeems right any smaller wouldn't make enough of a statement 36" may be ok. what kind of vinyl are they offering? Are these ebay bow's? beware of cheap vinyl. inexpensive or great deals doesn't save money if the elemets break it down fade, crack or peel

if I think about it I'll take better photos outside as well as what the rear view shows and post them wed.

This should give you a idea of the view, I know in Illinios we can basically have blacked out windows and louvers on all but the windshield,drivers and passenger doors

On my Lumina I used to have a white bow-tie much like Jar-heads. It honestly doesn't bother you at all, besides I use the side mirrors for mostly everything, just the rearview to see big things behind me, and you can still see that stuff.
