Default Do you think this would be dumb?

Has anyone ever seen glass that has been etched? I was thinking instead of having the little "DOHC VTEC" sticker I could instead etch it on the side of my rear window. It would be the same size and everything, nothing to crazy. Do you all think this would be dumb?

I think it would be lame only because you cant get rid of the acid etch afterwards. Just rock a sticker if you have to.

Thanks for the opinion.

Have you seen any low rider impalas with "DOHC ...." etched in their window? Nope.

Im not to worried about the theft, knock on a big *** peice of wood, I just think that is would look kind of cool.
And I dont want to get a sticker. If I am going to etch it I want it done, not come fake looking thing.
But, I think I have decided against it. Thanks for the responses though.
