Are brand stickers tacky on our car? - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Your car, your choice. You might also consider putting them somewhere under the hood in the engine compartment.

Welllll, I don't really have any stickers right now, but I was considering grabbing some.

During the 60s many of us boys had stickers on our side windows. Guess we thought it would show we had a hot car! LOL. Today my personal opinion has changed drastically, NO STICKERS, PERIOD. When I purchase a vehicle one of the first things I do is removed all the dealer stickers, used to actually me metal chrome ones. Just my opinion.

Waaaaay back in the day i bought a roll of sheet magnet and put my stickers on there, cut them out, and had them under the hood of my 4x4 Toyota.
Looked good a the shows!

But eventually i grew tired of it, put them on the roll around tool box, then just gave them away.

I love stickers but I personally find most stickers like that on street cars tacky or ricey if they're put on with a serious attitude. I used to have a sticker on my side window for a local group. Something like that is fine and I also like funny or parody stickers. Though not on my car, this was one of my favorite parody stickers I've done. This was a CO2 car I built in high school.

I try to support vendors/companies who have been good to me but mostly keep them under the hood & smaller ones. I do currently have a small sticker on my windshield from the tuner I used but that one will come off when I get it re-tuned.

Buy a sheet of plastic at the hardware store as a display then go crazy. It’s a neat touch at car shows and cruise- ins

I am not sure they are brand stickers, but I am running right now "Camarofest" and "Horsepower Therapy Racing" stickers on my car. Supporting what "YOU" want on your car is "Your" prerogative. OP, it's your car, put what you want on it, as only YOUR opinion counts when it comes to your car.

I can’t find the stinking picture, but sometime back I had a friend make me a sheet of small white mustang silhouettes and I stuck dozen of them on the drivers side passenger window.

I got a lot of “What for those for, ooooh”

Awesome!!!!

And Mark, that is THE only approved decal.

Stickers just look so cheap and nasty.

Plus, you want me to advertise for something I already bought? Maybe if you're sponsoring me and giving me stuff for free we can talk about a classier way to let people know than a sticker, but nah that's really not for me.

The other one that's funny is the poser-clan rocking the race track silhouettes to tracks their car has never been to. BRB, adding a SilverstoneburgringSPA sticker to my Camaro.... lolwtf

I'm ok with stickers under certain conditions.
If you're sponsored, then I have no issue rep'n for the company supporting. In many cases it's part of the sponsorship deal.
If it's for show or just looks, then I prefer them to be subtle. Like stickers in a color similar to the car, just off a few shades so they're subdued.
Also, track stickers are ONLY ok if you've run the track. If not, GTFO.
