Sticker Opinions.

Sticker Opinions.
I have a lowered Mostly Blacked out sedan. Tail lights are black. I just baked and painted my headlights black not shown in the pictures yet. Blacked out all the chrome on the car. Painted my stock wheels painted my grill.
So this is what my car looks like..
My calipers are painted BLUE from a past theme.
I want your opinion on what next. I see a lot of cars with stickers going up the side of the car or stickers across the windshield or going up from the bottom corner of the windshield at an angle I think that looks tight.
So Should I paint my calipers black and put stickers on the car? Should I paint them white and put white stickers going up the front fender...?
Opinions on stickers and where and what color brakes I should go with?

And the ricer mentality continues. ![](https://g35driver.com/forums/images/icons/icon13.gif)
Why advertise the brands/parts you have on your car? That's just an invitation for thieves. Unless you're reppin' a shop/company that has helped you or are sponsored, forget about a roll call (that's what they're called).
Honestly, I'm not totally against stickers. I've rocked a few for fun (as jokes) and some others to rep' some shops. But roll calls are stupid, IMO. Like I said, you're just sending an open invitation/advertisement to thieves. It's like saying, "oh, you want this part? i have it on my car. come take it from me."
But at the end of the day it's your car...

Even simple stickers make it look pretty sick with a nice touch. For example Pic taken by Calivn look at those 2 stickers on his side skirt. Subtle but looks good

I got a blacked out sedan too I painted the calipers red, they look nice, I put black infiniti stickers on the calipers. I just Ordered gunmetal G35Driver.com stickers for the small back windows and that's about it as far as stickers, too much and it takes away from the class of the car, my suggestion is paint your emblems gunmetal and get a roof spoiler as they look great on black cars, I just got my m3 lip roof spoiler put on, 40 bucks shipped and painted, can't go wrong

Hey man go for it every1 knows each sticker=5HP lol girls hate stickers, if ur gonna get them don't get a whole list across the fender of whole side of windshield, u can do a small one on the top middle of windshield and 1 on each small back window, I got the m3 lip off ebay and put it on the roof, had to be cut 1 inch on 1 side to fit I'll post the link for the lip spoiler and ill post the link for the g35driver decal as well when I get home at 11, I'm still at work, and tomorrow ill take a pic of what it looks like and post it up, is too dark outside

No problem, ill send the links tonight and the pics tomorrow, I still didn't get the g35driver decals cuz I just ordered them, you got me on the tail lights tho mine are lightly tinted, blacked out like yours look better but I wanna get the 05-06 tail lights and black those out instead of spending more time and money to do the 03-04 ones again, but yea I painted my emblems gunmetal it looks much better then chrome or black, I'm surprised you haven't seen it lol I post pics everytime I do a Mod pretty much

Yea what he said sounds even better black it all out I sometimes wish I painted mine black instead of red, is a pain in the **** to keep em clean, our brakes are dust making machines I need to get me some Hawk pads

Ok few things. First off how did you paint your emblems? What paint did you use? Where did you get it? Did you just use a brush?
Second EVERYONE on this site complains of brake dust from stock brakes. Well mine I think spits out little to no break dust. My calipers are blue and after 3 weeks of driving there still really blue yes a little bit of dust but I would figure there should be a LITTLE bit of dust after 3 weeks.
