Decorating your smart

Has anyone had any luck decorating their smart for special occasions? I like to decorate for Christmas but have always done it on cars with glass sunroofs that I can duct tape to then razor blade the tape off. I've been looking for any McGivering possible. Ideas anyone? Thanks

Duct tape to your heart's content. "Goo Gone' will not harm the roof.

I wouldn't use the razor blade though!! Maybe a plastic scraper but be sure the roof is very clean prior to using anything, even a rag to rub off the adhesive from the duct tape.

I bought some of those window clings that feel like jelly. Across the top of the windshield it says Happy Holidays. On the driver back window is a Snowman and an Xmas tree and on the other back window is Santa and it says hohoho.
I am looking for a red nose fro the front gril and anlers to put in the windows.

Can you all please post some pics of these decorated smarts?

I've got one week to get creative and make Zippy holiday parade ready - I could use some visual aids.

What razor blade ? ? Goo Gone liquifies the remaining glue, no razor blade necessary. I've used a scrunge on the roof and there are no scratches.
