Fortunately, we still live in a relatively free society so can modify our cars more or less how we like (subject to various regulations). We should be grateful that we don't live in New Zealand, where modifying is virtually banned.
The 'badly' modified cars are often owned ( IMHO) by beginners in the modifying scene whose mantra is often 'bigger is better' (hence 6" exhaust pipes, body kits bigger than the original car, etc). As you get older and more experienced, you realise the error of your ways
There is room in our car culture for all types. Just like in music, you won't like all of it, but if the owner is happy with his car then that is what it is all about (we can still laugh, though).
Anyway, if it wasn't for the terrible cars ours wouldn't look so good

| Re: stupid stickers I like some funny stickers. Me personally when I get round to it am going to put stickers down the back window. An a few more here and there. They will all be what is on the car and not just because.

| Re: stupid stickers I can recall someone driving ahead of me sporting a bright green sticker saying "Wigwam" across the back window of a faded red 106  . No idea and no point to it to be fair.
I also have seen somone driving a Focus with the letters re-arranged to say Sofuc.  which I thought was very entertaining. |

| Re: stupid stickers Peeps already know where I satnd with stickers. I can't get my head round why people buy stuff for there car when they haven't even got anything close to said sticker on their car. It's like newer driver seem to have to spend all there money on buying a complete shopping list from Halfrauds or Motorworld.
If using stickers, graphics or vinyls, please only put stuff on your car that actaully means something.
I was very carefull when picking out my stickers and have placed them with great thought as i dont want them to be in peoples faces like most stickers etc.
Heres what i've done and everyone means something on my car
And aslong as the graphics place I use can change the sponsor sticker to match item that are on my car, this is the graphics set i will eventually be putting on my car. It's alot but in the flesh it's by far one of the best graphic sets i've seen and as they have come from a Subaru, they will fit perfectly with my car especially as I already have about 6 Cusco item on my car (this is an actual pic of my car with the graphics placed over the top) :- |

| Re: stupid stickers if your ever around hereford, you will see alot of "in memory of symo" stickers, and these, obviously have a meaning, but other than that, i cant see much point in stickers on the back windows, |
