what is the point of shaving your emblems if you are just going to put a large banner with the name of the car on your windshield?

i saw an eclipse the other day with this done... i mean yea we know its an eclipse anyways.. why the hell would you want to make it even more obvious...

kinda like those pontiacs with the pontiac window banners... WTF? we know its a pontiac...

because they want to make sure that they are driving a fast eclipse/pontiac but no really, it's rediculous. there is a kid around my area with a pretty fast turbo d16 6th gen, but he has stickers all over his car saying "sohc turbo", "greddy", etc.

I always ask those people if they've got alzheimers and can't remember what they drive.

I took my Civic and LX emblems off cuz I think the car looks cleaner, why then would I put stickers on it, I hate that. Stickers are only cool if you go all out like a show car or Fast & Furious style.

Hmm... are you asking if it's alright? I think that's totally fine to have brand stickers inside your car. I have TYC, Dynamat, and a few other stickers in my glovebox. I don't want anything on the outside of my car right now.

I can't stand seeing a large banner across the window telling you what kind of car it is. Its retarded.

The only banned I actually liked on someone's front windshield - "Honda - Powered by Not Much" I thought it was hilarious.
