"Sticker Bomb"

[Dasfinc]

Granted, Since leaving the 'tuner' scene, I especially have a disdain for alot of modified civics and the whole JDM Scene... My orange truck has an "I *heart* Hating" Sticker on the back windshield for example...

But there is something that I've seen quite a bit lately, that I don't hate like the whole JDM thing IMO, and thats cars that are "Sticker Bombed" or have parts that have been. What do you all think of this mini phenomenon? I don't understand why people do it, but I think in some cases it gives some cars a unique look.

I guess if you have a piece of shit car what does it matter. Its a piece of shit with or without stickers.

I say to each his own....

Who am I to judge what another persons' taste is? I mean I like short chicks with big tits, you may like tall chicks with an adams apple.

I think there is an art to the way someone personalizes there car or truck, for that matter weather they drive a car or a truck. As such, art will get critiqued time and time again. Love it or hate it that of course it totally up to you.

I grew up in the Ohio Valley, I remember alot of old classic cars with the Eldelbrok, Moon Eyes, Jegs, ECT. stickers on the back windows. It I think is very reminiscent of the old days when drag racers would pimp the stickers for sponsorship. Alot of old timers did the same to emulate these cars.

Today it's the same ol story, kids today look for a way to make it there own.

40 years from now kids will ask us what it was like to drive in a gasoline powered car, I bet you'll see a tap out sticker on the Jetson's family car

I personally like the sticker look. Let me refrain a bit, the modest amount of stickers. I don't like huge stickers all over the place, that looks dumb, then again that is just an opinion.

 

[Carls2001ws6]

Another point I'd like to make:

How many of you would put a Riski sticker on your car?

Alot right?
Well he meant something to people on here and I bet you would not give a shit what anyone would say about it either.

I know apples and oranges
the point is live and let live, it's just a different style of expression.

 

[Mook]

nothing wrong w/ expression....nothing wrong w/ voicing your own opinion either. i still think it looks tacky.

 

[6literEat'r]

how about permanent markered cars?

 

[DanJ]

Didn't Timbaland's son get that car for his 16th birthday? Little zit faced seal looking motherfucker.

 

[Yaj Yak]

i like the sharpeed one

 

[6literEat'r]

i like the sharpeed one

yea, i like that better then stickers..but god damn that had to take a long time..

 

[Outlaw]

I personally like the look of it, but I've always been into the JDM scene somewhat. It's a personal preference, but that is one thing I always thought was cool.

It's nowhere sticker bombed, but here's my XJ for a reference to my stickering lol.

 

[Yaj Yak]

fwiw tho... if the sharpeed car was a wrap... or paint or whatever- id like it- i just like how it looks- id ont care how it got there... so if the original ones looked cooler- id be cool with em being stickered

Metal Mulisha!

Metal Mulisha!

 

[DanJ]

I was kind of kidding. Metal Mulisha is a bunch of hypocrites in my opinion. I remember seeing one of their first interviews and it had Brian Deegan talking shit about sellouts and how they were true to their roots and weren't all about the X-games and shit like that. Fast forward a few years and they were in the X-Games with spiked chest protectors and what not so they still looked like they were hardcore... and then fast forward to now and you can buy their shirts at the mall, and Brian Deegan's team page has a picture of him biting some X-Games medals. Not to mention their gear is sported by the same goons who think a Tapout T-shirt is appropriate attire to wear out for the night.

The sticker thing is funny. Everything I've bought for my build has come with a company sticker. I wouldn't put them on my car, but I'll rice the shit out of my tool chest by sticking them all over it.
