i got some jegs stickers with a part i ordered. is it ok to put these stickers in my engine bay or is that too *****??

i cant decide!

 

I've got brand name stickers on my radiator cover, and I don't think it's too bad. Just avoid the TYPE-R badges on the coolant overflow tank.

 

Personally I feel the true showing of an engine is in the merits of the mods themselves - the name brand stickers and what have you only lend themselves to useless clutter.

I would forgo any sort of labeling myself - but I've seen a few engine bays with tastefully done stickers and it doesn't look so bad.

Your choice man!

 

I hate 'em.

Jeg's isn't paying you are they? Why should you advertise for THEM?

 

stay away from them...looks like ***, cool to put in the garage and on the tool box and stuff though.

 

all of mine go on the garage fridge. I have stickers from Bud Racing to Rockford Fosgate.......adds a nice touch lol

 

i got over 250 stickers in my desk right now, felx fan, crane cams -you name it i probly got it... they look good on garage doors or tool boxs.... :lala: not ment for cars IMO

 

I get mixed reviews on where I put mine, I think it emits a "muscular" and/or "racing" image. What I like about it is that they're completely concealed otherwise, but when you pop the hood and it's showtime, it compliments all the friggin work and money I dumped... I mean lovingly put into the thing

 

That's a good example of what I mentioned earlier in this thread. The stickers are nicely arranged and well placed - they don't look so bad at all. I also concede it is rather interesting to see a sort of list of the mods right there in the engine bay....I like that part quite a bit.

 

i like engine bays without stickers. much cleaner looking IMO

 

I don't like the stickers all over the place in the engine bay........It's not ****, but it just doesn't have a clean look to it.......

 

nope, makes the car look like a bill board.

 

Where the hell did you get that poster?? I want one!

 

I think its fine as long as you actually have the parts the stickers show.

Don't be like the bone stock Civic beside you with NOS stickers all over it, and it actually doesnt have it.

 

I put all of mine on the '88 Carolla beater.
Its now a Ram Air Carolla, with SLP, Jegs, Comp Cams, and Summit stickers. That plus the rusted hole in the exhaust makes it get quite a few looks.

 

i put all of mine on the tool box

 

Personally I hate when people put stickers in the engine bay, hell I dont even like them anywhere for that matter. Just looks too ******* to me. Save the stickers for the beat-up 70s ford trucks with duct tape holding the rear quarters together and the coat hanger rotted out exhaust.

 

aaahahahaha. that's great stuff, i've seen it too!, lols.

i think stickers are for tooboxes, and performance parts are for cars. mix the two and it's just not cool...same w/ computers and cars.. but that's a diff story.

then again... if your some major bad donkey racer that goes around the country winning drags at strips, and are into NHRA racing.. and have sponsors & the sort, .... if you don't have them on your car, then something's wrong. :-D

 

Yeah....I think if you wanna do the whole racecar rollcage slicks and skinnies deal, then that's different...stickers are then somehow cool. Not sure why, by they are.

TPIROC:

Your car deserves respect....and I've admired it quite a few times. Given your attention to detail, I'm surprised you have the stickers on your airbox. I really gotta disagree with you on that one! If your car was crappy, it wouldn't even warrant a comment, so take this as a compliment with my "if it were my car" suggestion!

 

Well, I appreciate the kind words, and I guess there won't be a home for any on the new LT1 intake &

 

Use to have stickers when I had the 305.

now with the 350 I want it to look like a stock 305

 

I personally think they look ok here's mine.

 

I had a few on my car,

 

hmmmm.....do these qualify as tacky stickers

 

The best place for those stickers is on your toolbox

 

i have a couple... looks tasteful

 

my new mods for this summer is to fill my fenders :lala:

 

I personally dont mind them under the hood but thats as far as it goes. ANd only under the hood if you have the parts under the hood. Like my msd helicore decal, accel, ravin, etc. my buddy bought a pack of the decals they sell autozone that have mallory and jacobs and all those and slapped em all over his ford' and all he has under the hood is a chrome air lid. I agree with tpiroc they gotta be tastefully applied and do kind of show off the money you've put into it. Worst comes to worst you peel em off eh?

 

performance parts yes (like edelbrock crane cam) , but for stores such as summit or jegs no way, looks way to cluttered and cheap

 

im not really a fan of stickers, they seem to make the engine look not clean . Maybe if their done right , but i cant think of any that look real good .
