Sweet decepticon symbol

I can't say i'm real big on the subaru graphics but i LOVE the decepticon symbol!!! I have an autobot symbol, about that same size that is going to go (as soon as i get around to putting it on) onto the inside windsheild next to the rear view mirror. I have a barcelona red SVX, so it matches....i'll put up a pick when i get a chance.

EEEK!

Can't say I like the rally graphics and such on a $30,000 luxury touring coupe...maybe a Civic...but to each his own. I actually know a guy who's car is 10 times worse than that. He has a GRAN TURISMO thing on his hood in bright yellow (his car is green). He even has stickers on the seat. And here's the worst part... cover your eyes if you are sensitive... he put one of those "TYPE R" badges on the back! It looks just plain awful. I am going to try and get pictures next time I see him so everyone can have a good laugh. It's a travesty to witness.

If you like it, great. It's not what I would do, but you and I are two different people. One question/comment though. Are you really selling your car? If so, you need to realize that the graphics will decrease the number of potential buyers. Not because of the style, it's just that many people don't have what it takes inside them to draw the extra attention to themselves. Custom cars draw more money, but they are harder to find a buyer for.

Yeah, I'm going to see about how the responses go with the graphics on the side. If no one is interested, they're easily removed with a little fingernail time and some adhesive remover. Anyways, I thought that adding that little bit to the side would make it more likely to be sold to a little rice rocketeer, of which we seem to have so many in Sacramento. =)

Wow.... now I really wanna see your car, carpe! I have a hunch that you could remove those with the click of a mouse.....

Funny, are you sure there are that many rocketeers around here? I barely see any of them... None of them drive like it

Just today, I was in a rush to get somewhere... Imagine my surprise when a Lexus IS300 seemed to be accelerating almost as fast as I was.... I'll never know if we was trying to race me... It'd be an interesting match, though... Anyone know the specs on that car? (HP/Torque/curb weight/Front-Rear wheel drive)

Thanks, Don! My guess, then, is that he wasn't really racing, just driving normally like me! Otherwise, he would have blown by me, since I hadn't hit full throttle. Impressive car, indeed, even if it doesn't have the typical Lexus luxury look.

I am hoping these are not perm. Damn. I am not going to say U.G.L.Y. but damn, please be nice to the SVX and take them off. But then again, I am into plain look. The more stock it looks, the more the guy next to you will think yoiu have nothing under the hood. I love surprise attacks.

I don't think it looks all that bad. It's not something I would do, but there's no accounting for taste. I might do a subtle gold pinstripe one day, just enough to accentuate the lines of the car.

Besides, some people have to have graphics, and some people have to have AWS! To each his own.

Well....

If it wasnt so... bright... If it was just a shade or two off the color of the car so that it didnt stick out so much.. then.. I might like it.
