Something you see alot on Magazines are these completely done amazing beautiful cars. Something that most of them have are stickers. Down the door and along the side skirt. Now in NHRA they only let the stickers be on the car if they are parts/sponsors etc. I was wondering what everyone thought. is having stickers on your car Ricerish or good. Let's see what everyone thinks.

You honestly already answered your own question...

Seriously though, coming from someone who used to put on a sticker for every part installed and has since removed them all (minus my 'VT - Engineering' sticker because that's different) it looks much better without. I will admit though there is a such thing as tasteful vinyl but only for shows/races/etc. and not for daily driving.
 
I don't really like stickers of any variety.

Keep it clean and simple.. That's the way to go.
 
Agreed. I'd rather not be a rolling billboard. Stickers sure do get you attention... from all the wrong people.
 
I have some stickers on my MSP .. Thing is, they're small and two of them are almost impossible to see.

Down either sideskirt, I have three (for six total) -- one for the forums (two total), and the other two (four total) are companies that have helped me out with a lot of parts. Then up front, I have one that's part of MAM's old logo, but I've left it because I like the actual concept of it (my car really is an addiction!) and most day-to-day people that I meet don't know the company at all. Anyhoo all that vinyl is colored silver, and two have a small amount of white -- but they almost completely blend in with the titanium paint. Then I have #1276 decals (in the same exact design as the #1276 on my painted CF hood) in either rear 'triangle' window of the rear doors -- but they're black. Against my 7% tint, you can only see them if you look very closely.

So while I'm not totally against vinyl (obviously) .. I think it's something that's extremely subjective and completely depends on quality, quantity, design and placement. :)

heh the only sticker i got is a "zoom zoom" sticker mazda sent me for free. its on my rear window under the wiper xP

too many blaring stickers is ricerish. heh i can see if u got sponsors but if ur like the people who have stickers galore, i'd say no.

hehe rush's car is awesome xD
 
I'm not a big fan of stickers plastered all over the car, but a few here and there can be okay. I have black G.A.C.C. on the rear passenger "wing" windows - but the tint is uber dark, so you have to really look to see them. Then on my back window I have the 1338 sticker for Shannon.
 
Just dont be one of those GIANT MAZDA EMBLEM DECAL ON THE WINDSHIELD people....we know what kind of freakin car it is lol

I like my sticker.
 
Evil Monkey stickers and "Got Basenji" stickers. What more do you need?
 
It's all personal preference...I think you should have the car for it, which a regular P5 does not, in my opinion...If done right like RUSH's ride, or like BRIAN MP5T had done, which is the best, then it works, but gotta have the mods to back up a list on your car.....
 
Only stickers on my car right now is a white R for Rusty surfbrand. Kinda doubles as the R for my lastname. Got the same sticker on both Pro5's. Everyone thinks it's "Cute."

As to other stickers, I say go for it!! Every sticker you add adds 5 HP! Don't forget to add the sticker from your blinker fluid sponser!! LOL

As with everything, to each his own. If you want to rep the parts on your car, go for it, but don't do like a dousche that lives back in Orlando and put a GTR sticker on a V6 mustang thinking it means "GT Racing"

Ohyeah, I have that one as well .. but that's silver, too. I tried to do something a little 'different' with it though.
