To me it really depends on what it says and the Lettering style.
Personally I wouldn't get anything that says what kind of car you have, cause unless someone is an idiot they know.
I've seen a couple that look ok.
I like to keep my exterior free of stickers or banners, I like the stock look a lot , well for the most part.

Heres the one I had on my 1992 RS when I bought it. I liked it, but I also liked it without so when my icescraper met the sticker, I decided not to put another back on.

EDIT: Go here to see the pic:

http://black92rs.topcities.com/off.jpg

That should work, if not, try copying it and pasting it into your browser. I forgot my old website was hosted on lousy topcities

And yes, I am aware it looks like my car is just a body sitting on the ground with no wheels, but they are there

There's no picture for me, it takes me to topcities.com
but hot damn, I struck gold, free 150MB and ftp, now I can host my own videos
Nevermind, on the free plan the biggest file can only be 900kb, gosh dang it.
I got the pic to work.

And for the guy who asked where to get them, I got mine in an eBay auction from the guy who owns www.vinylguy.com

Mark: Don't use topcities, they suck. The only good thing they had was this "EZUpload" thing where you can upload as many files as you want at a time. I had my IROC page on topcities, and one day, it was gone. I emailed them twice, no response, so I had to make a new one.

IROCthe5.7L: I have no idea what you could like so much about it, the pic is horrible. But, whatever soaks your goat

I got it for $10 on auction I believe, normal price was $15 I think. When it came off so easily, I let him know and he replaced if for free, but I never put it on. Two days ago I gave it to this kid at work with a 95 V6 Camaro... I wish I woulda known you wanted it I woulda given it up for free.

No words here, but a tight @$$ tribal design from Autozone, 7 bucks, simple to put on. I love it, adds a unique look to my ride.

Here's a the best place for grafix. http://www.speedgraphics.net/index.htm Take your time and look around cause if this guy's not got it, he'll make it, any size any color. There's some good ideas tucked away in some obscure places so poke around.

Thanx, I get lots of compliments from people for it actually. I went back to Autozone yesterday and they had the skull and flames one there and had it marked as new item, but I still like my tribal design better. They also sell custom lettering ones where you get like 2 sets of alphabets in white that you can write whatever you want across the top with. I thought about putting Camaro RS across the top of the back window, but I'm not sure if im gonna do it or not
