Stickers / Emblems on a car

RobotDoctor · 06-24-2023, 07:23 PM

What are the stickers / emblems that adorn your car?

I have never been one to really express anything on my cars, with exception of a radio station bumper sticker (on my rear window) when I went to college in southeast Iowa back in 1984. I was from Colorado Springs and the station I listened to was KILO 94. They had really cool bumper stickers so I represented back in the day. It was so popular in college that a lot of my friends asked me to bring some back. For a time there were several cars with that KILO bumper sticker around campus.

Too many contingency and event-required sponsor decals to list over the years.....

Nivarox · 06-24-2023, 10:53 PM

Only the original stuff , I'm not like those who fancy AMG wannabes

lost 2 HP due to the weight of the stickers

Never put anything (stickers or emblems) on my cars. Guess I thought it looked cluttered. My daughter put stickers of musicians that she liked on her car when she was young and my son put stickers that had to do with movies on his car, also when he was young. To each their own.

On previous cars it was nice to have a few on the bottom of the rear windows, like car firms,fuel names and tyre makes.

M5Rick · 06-25-2023, 06:57 AM

Ha..if I ever won the lottery I'd love some flash car like a Lambo or Ferrari and have those flame sticky transfers you see on some American race cars behind the front wheels to bring the ownership of such a car back down to earthy levels

Buug959 · 06-25-2023, 09:28 AM

Only one sticker on my car aside from the factory badges.
Sorry for the dirty mess, it rained last night.

Yes, three times. I highly recommend it for any enthusiast. Here's a video from one of my trips:

Nice, Buug959. You've definitely earned the right to wear that sticker.

PS - what car are you driving, btw? 3 series?

I think he has an e90 335xi. That's what I see under drives:

In that video I was driving an E92 M3 that I rented from RSR Nurburg. My most recent trip I rented an F22 M240i X-Drive because it was the closest match to my own E90 335xi that I could find. I'm thinking about shipping my 335xi over for my next visit to the 'Ring. I'd love to drive a few laps in my own car.
If you add the cost of the track car rental and a rental car for just touring around for a couple/three weeks it is almost a complete wash with the cost to ship my car over and back.

There was a hamburger place in Toronto (still there but remodelled) called Harvey's. It was a serious hang out for Hot Rods, no lights in the parking lot, not seating, great burgers and great cars. You could get one of their stickers and the correct place to put it was on the draft window by your rearview or one of the rear side windows. I had on of these on my '69 Firebird. Sadly the car, the sticker and the hot rod culture at Harveys are all long gone.

Yes, you're right that that is what he drives but I didn't think he shipped it over. Of course in his more recent post above he says he may do that next time, so good guess, PcarFan.

I only have one sticker on my car.... I started a midwest G8X owners group and we created our own logo.

I once had a riding lawn mower with those flames painted on the sides.

And a couple of Harley stickers.

Complete with cup holders for that refreshing drink on a hot afternoon.

We were the black sheep of that cul-de-sac neighborhood for sure!
