Signs On The Go has completed a vehicle wrap for the southern rock 'n' roll band Cowboy Mouth, whose tour bus that will take the group on a six month journey across the United States and Mexico.
"Once you begin crossing the Guadalupe Bridge, it becomes an imposing structure to behold," said Carranz.
The billboard consists of 27 total pieces divided in to three sections.
A two-inch gap between each section allows the structure to remain durable against wind resistance, or other harsh weather conditions.
The entire billboard was printed on the Gandinnovations Jetia 3300 from Gandinnovations.
Carranz added: "With the Jetia 3300 it was not as difficult as you think it might be.
The Jetia performed well and all the pieces matched up easily and quickly." Carranz admitted that the toughest part was making a single steel structure to mount the printed material.
