Default QUESTION ABOUT STICKERS ALL OVER YOUR CAR??

I notice some have their road cars all covered in various livery, ....do you feel ok driving them on the road with it on?

i wouldnt...the most i have ever had is a sunstrip decal .....

infact if i was stuck in traffic with a seriously stickered up motor i would be wishing i got my windows blacked out at the same time as the stickers

I agree with Kev entirely. I'd look and feel a prize prat. However, there are exceptions strangely enough such as Porkie's 3-dr which I think looks good.

Its like driving round with a sign that says Ł1000 in the glove box.Don't steal me !!!!

Most RS's get attention by being an RS you don't need to do anything else.

Each to there own.

hey dont get me wrong, i tiger stripped my cossie,,, the ONLY thing to make a white cossie look decent is to stripe it, hides the shite paint too i found

but id DIE if that was my ONLY car to use,,,,, imagine the look you would get of the other people in the funeral when your driving a tigerstriped car,,,, was bad enough when i used my cossie for my mates funeral and my god mums aswell,,, there too loud

i have a couple of stickers 1 on my front window screen and one each on my side windows but they are subtle and they advertise my cousins dj agency so they are not for show but for a use but i dont think i could drive around in a fully stickered up motor unless it was a track toy

What sorts of stickers are we talking though?

Like just your tuner and say RSOC?

Or Blitz, Koni, etc etc all down the side of the door?

If were talking fully stickered up! i.e. Tiger stripes or large sponsor stickers like the reyland boys or rally car type look with the paint job and sponsers etc then imo, on a track or rally car, not so cool in your local supermarket car park.

My scoob is all stickered up (in fact at the moment all have been taken off, whilst the car is being worked on but when finished will be decalled up again), but this is either because of advertising or sponsorship reasons.
I must admit I do feel a bit of a lamp at times when I drive it on the public road (especially when i'm the wrong side of 18 lol), but at least when you look at the car it's clear it isnt really a road car.

Stickers are to everyones choice..... personally, if I didnt have to have stickers on I wouldnt, as it can look a bit too Fast and Furious Chav!

Chap buy me was an alcoholic so his old man stuck his 2.8 twin turbo technics 4x4 up for sale.

It was really nice until his old man spent a tenner on around 40 turbo stickers and stcuk them all over it, bonnet, boot, doors

then wrote "the animal is roaring" across the window screen

More like the owner is raving
