Nope your right. Its definately looks dumb. Its right up there with the old driver and new driver japanese tags. They drive me insane. In Japan they are stickers you have to have to say HEY!!!! I CANT DRIVE FOR CRAP WATCH OUT FOR ME!!!! or IM F**KING OLD AND CANT DRIVE!!!! Its a warning to other drivers. But here they are a fashion statement and "JDM".

There will always be rice crap unfortunately.

I thought it was funny when they appeared in like '01 or '02. Now the trend has trickled down to the beat to hell imports you find in low income housing. I still get a laugh when I see someone with a shocker sticker in their windshield and sitting behind it is their girlfriend in the passenger seat.

It was funny for a while but now its just beating a dead horse its old and not funny and its everywhere.

The funny thing is people seem to think its "JDM". Its not it never has been. Ive been in Japan and i can tell you i never saw one shocker sticker on any car . Something like that is very disrespectful there and dishonor and disrespect in Japan are a very big deal.

Some things will never change. Its been over a decade since the Honda scene blew up and people still seem to think that stickers are a upgrade. Its almost like we are moving backward in time. At least back in the day they put stickers for parts they were rocking now its just random crap.

I dont even understand people, you go to a import show and see the best that the import community has to offer and then you go home and instead of using it for guidence you do a 180. I will never understand.............

why do you have a shocker sticker then if that is your car? whats the point of having one because every one else does? they mean nothing but what they are either you want to shocker a chick or u do it to urself either way it is a pointless sticker that is super tacky.every time i see one while im driving on a honda i know either there going to drive like a dumb *** or rev on me then lose and ask what i have the sticker doesnt make you faster lol

The sticker had its time it was funny for a while. Its no longer amusing. ^ is right this is a billboard for someone that is most likely a "ricer".

Way to stereotype.
I put it on their because I wanted to? It is my car after all. Just because I have that sticker doesn't mean anything, and it shouldn't to you.

I've had it on my car for a while now, and I like the laughing faces behind me sometimes in traffic. But as for me, I do not drive like a typical teenage ricer.
IMO a sticker doesn't = driving habits/personality. Just a thought.

if you can notice people laughing behind you as you drive i think they are laughing at your driving more or less then the sticker.I thought you rocked a sticker to prove a point like na is best sticker or i hate speed bumps whats a shocker prove? that you are trying to fit in? what if the guy who first rocked it shockerd some chick he knew and made that sticker as a joke to him and her and slapped it on his honda now every newb has one just like the team panda stickers they dont know it was a team they just seen people with em and thought it was cool.

I'm with dudesitsjdm on this one. These ricer fads are completely retarded. The gay crooked decals, hanging dingle berries, and "JDM this and JDM that bs" is really getting out of hand. I guess owning a Honda goes with the territory, when the majority of Honda owners are ill educated teenagers. The rest of us owners need to ignore it and try to reestablish the once great Honda Scene of the past.

i think jdm is BS. just because you put a usdm type-r cluster in your civic
doesnt mean your "jdm"
in my eyes, JDM is genuine, imported from japan. most of the cars on here have
cheap plastic lips and stick washers in there hood to be "jdm"
edit: i rock cheap stuff all day, because im cheap. but i dont say my car is "jdm"
i do it because i like how it looks. i dont need to impress anyone. the whole reason we started
customizing our cars is to make them look how we like it, not to be "jdm tightness yo!"

Because theyre dumbass fgot fanboys that are trying to fit in with the scene so they think that having a shocker sticker automatically makes them fit in with the crowd.

doesnt even have to be part of a ricer/dumb teenager stereotype...
any self respecting car owner who cares about paint and body being clean in appearance doesnt cloud their car with decals.. reguardless of what sticker.

stickers belong on two types of cars.... cars in some type of racing league that have sponsors who pay them, or people who drive **** cars (ricers). sorry

if thats not you, thats cool. but you look like every other young ricer on the road reguardless.
