stickers - chavy?
« on: 22 April 2012, 16:46 »
I've always thought it was pointless and chavy when I see stickers on cars especially when the car has none of them brand parts fitted. I'm also a bit against stickers on the exterior unless someone was actually sponsored by that company. But I had some stickers in the box with parts I bought and while cleaning the engine bay I thought I stick them in the bay. What does everyone make of them?

Come on the real reason for this thread is to show off your lovely engine bay... :cool:
I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...

not a massive fan either, a few stickers placed in the right way are ok, and if its a funny sticker then i dont mind it.

Don't see the point tbh, as all they do is let down what is a very impressive engine bay! :lipsrsealed:

Unfortunately the engine mounts will have to wait, just rebuilt the engine after all, will have something to match in the near future!

Lol we all love a bit of whoring, but it was a genuine question, my engine bay has been this way for more or less a year now so I find it looks pretty normal.

one on the brace would look better

So the general consensus is it looks out of place and would be better off without stickers

I think it makes an engine bay which has clearly had a lot of work n money put into it, look cheap :undecided:

Ultimately it's not about what other people think, especially if you like them! :smiley:
