Decal or no???

When you bought your car did it come with the dealer's decal on the back? Just curious.

When I pulled up to the dealership the delivery truck had just rolled up with my future car on it. They hadn't even removed the white protective plastic covering from it yet. I bought it that same day and it had no dealer decal on the back.

So how did your's come?

A. No Dealer decal

B. Yes, Dealer decal

C. Yes, Dealer decal but I removed it

They removed the white plastic crap, but some of it was still sticking out in certain places. I removed the rest myself. No dealer stick and no dealer license plate frame. My sister's civic had the frame though. She took it off. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

The thing that pissed me off is they had a front plate. We dont need front plates in AZ so now i have 4 holes in my bumper. I took off the logo they put on it as well as the pin stripe and black molding on the doors and fenders.

C... Had dealer plates and some interior plastic, which I still haven't removed. Most of it is covering the carpet under the seats so I see no point in removing it.

What is the best method for removing the 4 holes where the crappy Faimly Honda plate used to be. Also anyone know why they put 4 holes yet only use 2 to secure the plate?

D. It had a decal, but I told them they had to take it off if they were concerned with making a sale. No liscense plate covers either.

Any other decal that was on the car, I quickly peeled off.

had the dealer license plate frames in the trunk when the car was given to me... also had this cool-*** chrome "IDEAL" emblem (from IDEAL HONDA) which would sorta match the chrome civic emblem but i never stuck it on... looks too cheesy and sorta rice at the same time... Civic type "IDEAL" woohoo!

i see a load of those "I love my ready honda" decals on civics and accords here in missisauga lol!

Damn, I must be lucky. Mine came A, nothing on it. The dealer asked if I wanted the decal, the plate frame, and if I wanted the front plate mounted. "No" to all three, sweeeeeeeeeeet!

Then I took the dealers sticker and put it on the back of my neighbors POS 1978 Buick Regal[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG] I wonder how many people think that my dealer sold that POS, because its a new dealership.
