I don't think it looks horrible, but I also don't think it looks good.

It scores points for flashing the rotors, though.

We definitely are not going to have to guess who it is if we see you on the streets sometime. It is not my thing but I love the fact that you are doing different things with your ride. Updated pics are always a good thing!!

a little too much for me...either rotors OR stars would have looked better

but hey, it's your car so there's really only one opinion that counts


what does that kinda stuff cost?

hate it. Cheapens the look of the car
As long as YOU like it, it shouldn't matter what I (or most of us) think but figured I'd throw my $.02 in.

Looks cool but IMO it's a little to much for those stock rims. Something chrome or polished would look hot.

Idk, Dawn. Not my taste but you're happy with it, which is most important. John told me you were getting something like this done. Did he see it in person?

I like it...but seriously needs more mods such as....chrome wheels....wings..bodykit..etc,... Decals look way better on heavily tricked-out cars. IMO.

ok...

1. I am female. To be honest I got sick and tired of whenever I stopped anywhere the guy I was with was getting the compliments on the car soo....i made it girly!

2. Im not in VA anymore I lived 3hours west of DC tho. Im in South Jersey now.

3. My insurance company paid for it I didnt so Im not sure what it would cost

4. Def. knew many ppl wouldnt like it. BUT oh well like they are all saying it is mine and I do like to hear other ppls opinion

5. Hough Ive been working alot...3 jobs (sales in a dealership, shot girl in a bar, and promo girl for absolut)

6. I dont consider decals "mods" at all. "Mods" will come shortly, like several of you know I just graduated college so $$ is tight but...its getting a little easier to put away for a few things. Also a few of the things I have planned are the reasons I chose these decals so it is def. a work in progress.

7. I titled the thread "New Decals" decals are stickers not paint so pay attention...

8. Kim- No John didnt get a chance to see them

9. Gambit I felt the same way before I got it done about the stars but I told they guy to do what he though was best and I like how it turned out.

Thank you for the comments!! As mentioned before I knew not everyone would like it. Trust me I was nervous at first...Im a simple girl and I didnt know how I would like the decals. I also looked at it as, hey my car get hit every 6mo somehow anyway I will prob. change them out in a year anyways.

No, I never did get to see it in person. I was so tired that day, and someone in South Jersey was being a little too indecisive on what to do. Never made the drive down there.

That is what I recommended when she first mentioned wanting the rotary decal look.

I'm iffy too.
As long as you like it though
I think it would look good, if there were no rotars or stars. Just the swirly things.

I feel you on this, my GF got mad recently when a guy complimented me, (while she was in the driver's seat) on HER driving skills. haha

Def. not everyones cup of tea.
