I've had one similar to this on my bumper for a while now (Christmas gift from the wife) and I've found that people don't really notice. I think most people think it's the regular one. I point it out to people I know are pro-gun and so far everyone is like... 'Oh, I didn't realize what those were until you pointed it out and we got up close. I thought it was a regular one and was having my doubts about you.' or something to that affect.
