    Okay, if I get the license plate "Chëëtüß" for our car, will we get penalized just because?

    Perfect.

    So if teams sell shirts, Judge Martin, can they use the money as a free space? Up to a limit, of course, because some of those guys would be 'selling' hundreds of them.

    I should buy one of these for when a current or future 240 of mine ends up Windsorised. Just store it in the closet until then... my low-mile (199k) B230F isn't quite up to par.

    Oh hell, what do I care, it's amazing anyway. I wear my Black Metal shirt only on special occasions...

    @MushyHeirloom: Much the same. Once I get my earning potential back from the cragged jaws of the recession I will be swapping a V8 into my current or future 244. I, too, will require this shirt when that time comes around. Maybe a bumper sticker version too.

    Somewhere, the nearly forgotten dreams of a little, grey Skyhawk are about to come true.

    Putting the FireChicken on LeMons cars is incredibly appropriate. As we all know, the origin of the design rests in the mythology of the Phoenix (no, not the city), where the god-bird periodically emerges from the ashes of its own conflagration, perpetually renewing itself and its powers.

    In practice the performance of the T/A was inversely proportional to the size and gaudiness of the decal. I'm not sure that a car has ever been produced with a poorer go/show ratio.

    Well, you know, the hood on my Hyundai Accent is a dreary expanse of grey space, it could use some fire.

    I stopped and took a picture when my Cavalier ticked over 241,390.5 kms (I was 100m late) - it's much more significant if you believe in that Imperial thing.

    I propose a contest whereby the best non-Firebird application of this decal wins a prize of some kind. Not a Photoshop contest - a real application of the bird in question.

    Sponsored, of course, by the company on the e-bay link.

    @HoonThatFerrari: I'm seriously considering getting a couple of them for my sisters' Christmas gifts. One drives a '94 Mazda 323 and the other a '93 Volvo 940 Turbo wagon. I think I'll surprise them by applying the decals myself.

    @MushyHeirloom: If Ms. Martin actually does this, and posts pics thereof, I will personally send him a bottle of Lagavulin - since the brand "Brefass Scotch" is not generally commercially available.

    I think I'll stick with my original plan of spraying my parts-car's hood with chalkboard paint. Cartoon screaming chicken today, cartoon screaming chicken with a giant penis tomorrow.

    (I forgot to add "and bolting that hood to my car" somehow, in case it wasn't obvious enough.)
