I've seen cars that were in autocross competitions and they all had blue tape covering the car! What's up with that? Is it to cover up the gaps?

 

to protect the front end from debris and rock chips

they get hammered on the track

 

QFT. I also do this when I drive home 3 hours south on the highway.

 

1. Track scars are a badge of honour.

2. Just get clear bra.

 

Funny thing about doing it for Autocross is ,,,, there is no one in front of you to throw rocks on your bumper.

 

cones.

you'll see people do it around the edges of the bumper at autox.

 

also so you can have people sign it at meets and shows..

 

i taped my front bumper and hood when i was driving down to sevenstock and it really helped from the bugs and stuff

 

thx for that!!!!

wow,

i used the tape to make #s on the side of the car.

beers

 

It's not just any tape, it's Painter's Tape!

I think it's stupid when someone just leaves it on their car for looks... like that guy with the green tape at SevenStock.

 

hahahahhha

 

^ lol, you remember! I can't find a pic of his car though...

 

He earned a pic

 

not only that, the bumper was already cracked and destroyed on one corner.

 

how about you guys stop hating because you dont know the whole story?

and no it was not for looks

 

i can provide more pix for you guys:

 

im not hatin...but a good story could excuse you..haha

 

 

nice,have you guys seen someone do this with duct tape?Im trying to find a picture holly s**t batman,it was bad,

 

I want to hear the green tape story.

 

I parked next to a VR 8 in Northern Virginia a few months ago that had duct-tape marks where the tape removed the paint when taken off. It was in several lines crossing the passenger window.

Ouch.

 

Dude, that guy is so jdm. he has the JDM plates to match.

 

Lulz, not to mention the Efini emblems on an 8... rice imo.

 

what wrong with green tape? atleast some of us can afford green tape. those blue tape are just too cheap compare to the green tape.

 

damage: i was a victim of a hit-and-run
efini: i like it so w/e i'm so rice ok?
greentape: i was at the horse thief mile at willows springs the weekend prior to 7stock and decided to keep it on because it looks better than the damage exposed.

why would i even bother taping a damaged bumper you ask? to preserve as much as i can to keep costs down when i decide to fix it.

renesisse3p needs to calm down. jumping to conclusions calling my green tape "stupid" and calling me rice for a small *** emblem that looks a hell of a lot better than the huge mazda emblem. stop the hating. rx8 owners love to bash
