I cant figure out what the real point of a line up on ur car is. Number one unless u are sponsored y would u want to advertise someone elses logo? number two why would u want to let everybody know what u have isnt a sleeper the thing ppl are looking for. And third for theft reasons why let everyone on the street know what u have?

If u are wondering were this came from i was questioned weither i wanted a line up on my car when i got decals done.

like all the brand decals on the fenders? I dont know what you mean by "line up" if thats not it...and I think in some cases its ok...like show cars or maybe a few things but after awhile it gets insane...one time i saw a 'teg that had at least 25 different name brand decals on it...granted they were all neat and "lined up (?)" on the fenders but they were different on both sides...in alphabetical order...

It is done because some people are egotistical and want everyone to know what they have done to their car, how much money they have spent, and how much better they are than you... :ricer:

Show Car, or :ricer:

I think its cool on a show car, because its giving props to the people that made your car look like that.. other than that

i think a couple are ok, maybe like... a windshield banner..

or if you get deals at a shop put a sticker on your window, nothing big tho :)

PS: and a Hondastyle.com decal DOESNT COUNT ;) ;)

speaking of stickers has anyone noticed that u see alot of apc banners on cars now and they are cars without apc stuff on them. Number 1 who even likes apc and would want a banner of them on ur car. Number 2 who would say they have apc shit when u dont thats just dumb:doh:

Probably for the same reason everyone and their mother has Type-R stickers on cars that were never made in a Type-R trim. Or even on cars that aren't Honda/Acura. Although I guess that makes more sense than APC stickers. At least the Type-Rs were more performance oriented. Most of the people I have talked to have complained about APC's stuff. Maybe they just have it because APC is well known and they want their car to appear modified when it isn't. Who knows.

Stickers? We don't need no stinkin stickers! The only stickers I've got on my car are from the few companies that were kind enough to cut me deals on parts. No, they don't sponsor me but they helped me out so I feel obliged to do the same. I'll admit...a Turbonetics and Aeromotive sticker on a Mustang doesn't exactly encourage races, but who cares? As for all those race boy wannabe cars with stickers up and down the car...they just want attention. They're whores to public opinion and will do anything to make you look twice at their cars. May they all die horrible deaths.

i really can't stand stickers. the only ones that i had was an aem that i cleaned up with the ice off the window, and an eibach sticker. died the same horrible death. anyway there will be 2 stickers on the car in about 2 weeks or so with my company name and web adress (almost free advertising);)
