I personally dont like any decals on imports - granted sometimes u gotta do a roll call on ur car when ur sponsored. But putting EIBACH decal on ur car when you bought the parts and werent sponsored seems kinda lame to me. True I do rock two TRD emblems on my front fenders positioned right at the same place on each fender. Its a clean look and true i dont have anything TRD so im a bit of a ricer in that way but hey it was when i first got the car and you barely notice them.

Im sorry to anyone with the decals that say POWERED BY.......but thats the worst if u ask me!


What you guys think? Do you got any on your car?

study that picture much? lol
j/k

It all depends on the style of decals...where as vinyl frown.gif

aka, black or gray vinyls on white is okay IMO
silver on black is okay
dark grey/black on silver is okay
blue is the easiest to work w/ IMO smile.gif

yea...
just my opintion

I have a TRD decal on my rear side windows. I have mirror tinting and a black TRD decal looks good on it. There is a pic in my profile

i think as long as u have the mods, decals r ok, just don't over do it.
i have Greddy and Corksport on my probe just cause i have the parts.

None on the Celica though.

I don't rock decals they ruin the look for me but then again I like things plain and smooth.

Speaking of which stranger I want your car without the wing (the hotness) even though I have seen it several times I still can't help but drop my jaw.

If you have the parts - i say why not. You paid a ton for those parts! no harm in letting other know whats under the hood.

Then again, lets say you have Tien springs and an Injen intake. Woo whoo! two stickers.... at that point you should just keep them in a box and wait until you get more stuff. If you are going to bragg, at least have a few stuff to bragg about.

Now if someone is paying me to have cool parts and put stickers on my car... i wouldnt mind being powered by anyone; TRD, Eibach, APC, Office Max, Tampax... who cares if they are paying you.

on my MR2 i have a "TRD: Toyota Racing Development" Banner across the lower rear windshield, on each rear 1/4 glass i have small decals that say "AutoCityImports.COM" which used to be a sponsor, but I am not backing them anymore so those are coming off before the car is pulled back out this season, and on the driverside rear 1/4 glass i also have a very small SCCA logo decal on there. meh... as long as they represent something i dont really care... some look decent some look overdone... some look retarded. I expect to have some numbers made up for my doors on each side when i start doing more Solo2 stuff, donno yet wether ill go with just standard vynal, or the magnetic cling on ones... depends how much racing and how much driving i plan on doing... most likely ill just stick with the magnetic cling on type so i can take it off whenever.... you can check out my car domain page via my sig to see the decals im talking about... tell me what you think... i wont do anything different reguardless, just wondering if people would consider that to be "ricey" or whatever.

I have a single TRD badge on the front grill.

Because I'm running TRD bits of suspension, and they were bloody expensive.

I supposed I could also have Blitz/HKS stickers, but I prefer subtle to be honest.

There will be a Nurbergring sticker as soon as the car has earnt it.

Blitz Spec NUR Exhaust, somewhere over $1000
Needing another one 18000 miles later, bloody annoying.

Um...gt4 replica girl, i forget your name, i think ur kinda confused. You said you dont like stickers for parts u dont have, yet u have a trd sticker and no trd parts. But, whatever floats your boat. Since it's toyota divison, it's not as bad as like a TurboXS sticker.

Personally, I have a couple. I don't mind stickers, as long as you have the parts and they look nice. I have a 6gc.net sticker, MSL (local shop I support that just got their r33 gtr stolen) and Bcrew sticker. (my car club). Those are all on the back glass. Then I have a KA (my frat) sticker on the pass window. I really wanna get an hks, tom's, and Exedy sticker to put under my hood. That's cool too, i think, a bunch of your stickers under your hood.

NASA/SCCA RX-7....currently under the knife
92 Civic hatch B16 - Sold
10th anniv RX-7 - RIP
The Slow Celica - Sold...and then crushed crushed due to street racing.
