Stickers

I have found a new born automotive love with my Yaris LB and find the urge to throw my upgrade stickers on the sheet metal. Ya, I am old enough to have sired a few folks on this form and am wondering if it is stupid too slap my Tanabe, TRD, and other stickers on the sheet metal?

Stick 'em on the glass... then when you get tired of them you can scrape them off without damaging anything.

I'm old enough, I do what I want...the younguns sometimes (maybe always) seem to have a different style than me.

Ya, but I now the secret of taking them off sheet metal without damage via 3M products.

You still didn't address the old phecker/sticker question. Your thoughts?

Dice are cool!! Got some baby moons coming on ebay....got some ideas on adapters to hold them on, so sometime within a month will have moons and rings. Haven't decided on color for wheels...black,silver, or pale yellow.

Ok... I like some stickers but my taste runs to the semi-obscene motorcycle helmet stickers, not product stickers. Your car... do your own thing! (and with that comment, I'm showing my age!)

The key is to avoid haphazardly slapping stickers all over the place. Think it through and make them look like they came with the car. Be anal about placement. Also keep in mind that it will inevitably attract some unwelcome company, such as cops and robbers. If I'm a robber and I see an Alpine sticker on the window of a base model econocar, I'm drooling. Be careful what you display.

Ha, HA I also ride a motorcycle and love those nasty stickers & T's. On the bright side my son really does think I am cool as hell! Ya, I am not the most proper person, but I teach the kids to do the right thing when I visit the local schools.

Good advice! I am so pheckin old that no one pays an attention to anything I do. When I drive too fast the LEO's just wave because I have a distinguished look and wave in respect too them. The robbers might look at my Yaris when I park at the Wally World, but move on when they realize that a 1911A1 is possibly in a custom rig on the belt line. When you get to this point life is much simpler to say the least.
