    If you are not going to put a naked woman on it - go with your original idea. It looks smart and professional and not too `uppity` (can`t think of another word - but you get the idea).

    I can`t relate to a vehicle that has `gull wing` doors. You must be going after clients too rich for my blood.

    My $.02

    Give some more thought to the naked lady idea.

    I would change the name "Ulitmate Detail" to the yellow color, and then change the bars on the sides to white. I would also leave the "The" as white. I think that keeps the whole name together better.

    Also, im not sure why, but on the other card similar to this, you can see more of the letter "a". I think it is better this way. For someone who just sees the card and has no idea what you do, it might be a bit hard for them to read quickly.

    I really like `Treestands` suggestion too, that set-up would look great.

    If you decide to keep the original, which by the way looks fantastic, id make the word `Ultimate` larger and more legible (easier to read).

    Goodluck and keep us posted!

    Wow, you uys really like the original the best? I basically scapped that idea, and just put it in this thread for the hell of it.

    What about the idea of maybe getting 1000 cards done, half the original, and half one of the other ones?

    My 02cents

    Well I like the original cuz it looks cool but from a marketing stand point I would not use it - your logo it too small - looking at the card for a second or two I would guess it was a Mercedes salesman


    I like the one below becuase the main focus is the word Ultimate and it draws your attention to your business name and not the vehicle on the card -

    The car it cool looking without being an easy to idenfity brand so you don`t look like a car salesman and your name, number, email addy are all easily readable down there in white....

    okay it`s more like my 10 cents --

    I also like the first one. The others may turn customers away because they might think you only detail really high-end cars(or just sport cars). And on the first one I would make the word "Ultimate" a little bigger and easier to read.
