Stickers/Car Decals?

Astephens94 · 05-15-2012, 03:34 PM

The only sticker your should ever put on your car is if you have a parking sticker for the place you work.

mashimarho · 05-15-2012, 04:06 PM

I've got em.
Looks nice :P
But, where...?
Secret.

superjay · 05-15-2012, 04:32 PM

every sticker adds 5whp...I thought this was general knowledge

DanielGonz · 05-15-2012, 06:57 PM

I think it depends on the look of the car, if you got a theme going, etc. As long as it ties into the car. If they're random stickers, no way will it look good.

I think this looks pretty nice.

Taste is in the eye of the beholder but I think less is more. I'm actually awaiting the arrival of a e90post.com sticker to complete it but until then here's all I have ( I like to support my favs plus try to communicate I'm an enthusiast and not just an owner of a sweet car:

The decal doesn't add any horsepower but the other thing that came in the box does.

krhodes1 · 05-16-2012, 05:02 PM

The only stickers on my car are the German "Umwelt" sticker from my European delivery, and my Maine State Inspection sticker. Anything else is tacky.

Personally I don't see the issue if it's something you want to support. But putting them on there as a 'poser' ... no (think the Fast and the Furious). I think it's HILARIOUS when someone tries to be something they're not and fails.

Here's my car ... E90post and VAC Motorsports

In the top center of the back windscreen I have a Helix sticker, though it's hard to see.

The only decal/sticker I allow on my car (except BMWCCA)

What about the Calvin peeing on a car brand sticker? I never quite understood the "name of the car" sticker or decal...is it there to remind people (what kind of car it is that they are seeing), is it for the owner (so they don't forget the car they are driving)...maybe it is for the car as a reminder to what it is???

When you a se a Mustang with a huge Mustang sticker...BAM! You know for a fact that you are looking at a Mustang...no doubt about it! it's right their...it says Mustang...yep! Now put "Porsche " on that bad boy and you are really gonna f-up some people's minds!

Good point! Thanks!

But I'm not a fan of that look.

Agreed.

I've debated on decals for the longest and decided to throw them under the hood.

Ultimately, it's what you like.

superjay · 05-17-2012, 08:09 PM

do they still add horsepower when they're hidden?

(although, to be honest, I like the way those look on the intake runs)

ndog14 · 05-17-2012, 08:29 PM

BMW CCA sticker, duh

Those do look pretty badass, but it makes sense here being that they're more track oriented than the average DD. Subtle/Minimal/Nil is the name of the decal game otherwise.

Well, the parts they came with added a lot of power and they are hidden (except for the intake), so YES!

Thanks for the compliment though.

Nobody will critique you for that sticker. I am sorry for your loss.
