I voted no, personally I like those stickers there. Having said that I prefer the back of mine without stickers, but thats mostly because they looked cheap.

The VersionR and the MIVEC stickers I would leave on though, if I had either! :wink:

CJ


On the way from Killarney to Kenmare (senic route).

Leave the Version R sticker on CJ - the blue on silver looks well.

As per Kev - Mivec and Version R stickers on - everthing else off.

Well I would expect you to say that Mr. Blue Mivec stickers on steel silver FTO ;) Personally, I'm a fan of blue on silver mind you...

11 to 6 want to see them gone though, decisions, decisions!

I'd have to say de-baged mine is and as a personal choice i think it just looks cleaner then again that may be because i'm totally de-badged

Both points taken, I should add that I'm not trying to pass a GPX off as a GPvR (after all, the GPX is top of the range ;)), I thought that the spolier looked a little bland when I stuck it on first time around and that the stickers might brighen it up a bit, now I'm not so sure!

I'd take it off, but then I prefer no-stickers at all & just badges... Be super-maximus-kool imo if you got chrome-y badges made up - like your Mitsu one on your nose!! :D

Well it looks like peer pressure got the better of me ;):

I think you'll agree that the car looks much cleaner without the stickers.
