Stickering, not snickering!

I've never been one to decal my cars but it's really caught on where I am (Toronto area). It adds personality and shows some wit..

I want to get "my first decal" but I have no idea of the rules.

Im not taking about brand names of my mods. Nor the old school taz devils.

I'm more like the front windshield team name, or witty icon on the

Any advices... how does this work. pics of tasteful stickers/decals?

Cheers

Tasteful stickers?

Any brand stickers get put on my iPad case. I would only put a club or brand sticker on my car if it was sponsored, and then only on the glass; not on the paint.

No it doesn't. It's the automotive equivalent of a teenager decorating the walls of his room with posters from Spencer's.

Do a google search for Itasha

If I lived in Japan I'd go full Itasha. Anywhere else in the World... too much hate. Some Itasha's even I go WTF at, but now and then I spot some pretty amazing ones on sports cars.

Its a form of personal expression. I happen to love Japan and Otaku culture with watching anime and collecting more merchandise than my car is worth (over the years).

Here's a few neat toy 86 Itasha's I've been collecting for my desk at work. I rather like the Initial D one, but I'd probably go for a Ghost in the Shell, Gundam, Kill La Kill or Evangelion theme if I did.

So if you just want a simple sticker here or there. Use something that won't be a pin to get off or do damage. Its your car!

Those 3 you posted are actual race car thou, not really day to day itasha. XD & they are driven by actual female pro drivers.... I follow one of them on Twitter.

I realise its not an itasha, but given we are discussing stickering I figured I'd share this gem for sale at my local dealer.
