Icon2 Opinions on decals

I want to put a Dohc Vtec sticker on my integra, but will it cause more attention for someone to want to jack me?

Should people flash what they got under their hood?

depends where you live and where you park your car. Best case, just leave off the stickers

your not flashing anything tho...it's not like people don't know what's under the hood of a teg, or vtec just came out. and if you did an engine swap to get vtec good work and if it would make you feel special to put it on a sticker, have fun...this is not a tech post tho. move to appearance.

This thread is amusing. My first "mod" on my GSR was to remove that darn "steal me I have VTEC" sticker...

Stickers take away from a clean look in my opinion.

I put the DOHC VTEC decals on my car similar to the 99-00 Si Civics. I like the look, but it does advertise to thieves; however, i think my intercooler does a better job

if its gonna happen, its gonna happen. A sticker isn't gonna attract thieves. Its not like they will see the sticker and then say to themselves "hey! this sticker means something is under this hood, lets take it." you already have a car that is one of the top cars on thieves list. Its just a matter of time before it happens.

When I want to put stickers on my Teggy, I put it under the hood where there is less heat so they don't melt off... that way when the hood is up, the stickers are there to see, but not physically when driving around...

If you want it put it on, **** the haters.....


And any car is a risk to steal, i'm tired of people saying don't do something cause it'll get stolen.
