Default Help me choose rear window tint decal

I am getting my windows tined. I am thinking 38/20
The rear window is where i am stumped. The gentlemen at the tint shop thinks that a chrome outline pony would be sweet. However, without causing too much uproar, i would like to mention that my nickname and license plate has been Superman for quite some time. So, I have been thinking of the superman logo. If I do go that route, what would you think of full color, vs outlined?

Here is what i have so far. Remember, this is on 20 percent black.

1) chrome outlined pony (broken style; not fully connected lines)
2) superman returns style logo. Full color bright OR dark where it looks like it is in the shadows.

3) superman returns style logo. Burst through design, so that it looks like the tint was torn back to reveal the logo. Select parts of the logo would be hidden by the shreds.
4) Holographic - either superman or pony logo.

The guy at the tint shop was saying that with the outlined pony, the holographic tint may not show much at all, so I am not sure if I should have a completely filled in pony, or a superman logo.

EDIT: I also need direction on if full color is even possible. Gradients like the superman logo would probably need to be vinyl. Should I go with tint and then a vinyl decal with those tiny holes in it?

Please give input and criticism please.

Thanks

I would say the Superman logo... dark like it's a shadow.

I'd go with option 2 dark. Make people do a double take. Nice and suttle (if that's your style).
