Stickerbombing.... why?

Anyone else think stickerbombing takes an adult performance machine and turns it into a huffy bicycle of a 12 year old? I was shocked when I found out this was a real thing. People putting thousands of stickers on their exterior pieces.

It's not my style but what someone does with their own property doesn't bother me.

I also think slamming your vehicle to the edge of functionality is retarded. To each his own I guess.

I think's fine if you own a 20-30 year old VW or Volvo or something, but not something made in the last 10 years.

ill never understand sticker bombing. some shady guys i used to know would look for these cars because they are basically advertising how many aftermarket parts were pumped into it.

no bueno for that reason alone, and because i just dig the sleek clean look.

I used to be all, ''different strokes for different folks'' but now I realize that some people just do really dumb shit.

I never understand why these threads get made. If you don't like it don't do it, if it's not endangering life or limb don't stress it.

I dont like it or stancing, but i dont feel the need to down those that do.

Relax lifes to short to worrt about what others are doing. Just enjoy the car

i agree completely. what others do with their cars is none of your business or concern. it doesn't affect you in any shape, way or form so what whine about it? PMO.

again.. to each their own. Your not driving it, so who cares. You think they look dumb, and thats fine. I don't care for it, and I like how the slammed cars look, but would never go that route.

People usually do it to cover up a body part thats broken/cracked/rashed. I get the reason for that. I don't care for the look tho.
