looks gd fella, just need to lower the front more and some wide wheels would look great

16th April 2011, 00:24

Would look better if you'd done it on the bonnet first imo, i like the look tho.

16th April 2011, 00:25

not feeling it tbh, just my opinion thou

16th April 2011, 00:31

its different will be difficult to keep looking as good though with dirt and bugs etc sticking to it?

16th April 2011, 00:31

Wow! That would take ages! Looks good imo

16th April 2011, 00:33

looks shit imo, but i dont like sticker bombed cars so ...

16th April 2011, 00:39

Just the bumper looks shit IMO. But it could potentially work with more panels done.

B pillars are done, just no pic,

May do mirrors tomorrow.

16th April 2011, 00:42

I think if you do the whole car it would look ace!

I'd even go as far as saying it would be one of the best/original saxos on here

16th April 2011, 00:42

:O mad but that's going to fade really badly

See what your saying, but this was only done because i cant afford to fork out for a new bumper, widemouthed, fog lights smoothed over, and painted to a decent standard at the moment.

Thanks mate.

I hesitated putting the first sticker on for a few mins and then thought be brave haha.

Gotta be a little daring in this modifying game, otherwise we all look the same, as you said just a bit of fun.

Not yet.

Someone posted further up even with laquer they faded, do i just need to put loads on?

Was going to look at a clear vinyl wrap instead.

16th April 2011, 01:18

vinyl will probs be your best bet the laquer didn't seem to cope.

16th April 2011, 01:21

Or use industrial clear laquer

I just think (what I picture in my head anyway) that it could've been a real nice clean front end, I'm not a fan of stickerbombing

No worries mate.

It was a very nice clean front end untill the seasame steet bird decided to lodge himself in it, just unable to afford a bumper plus smoothing plus painting to a high standand at the moment, hence the bit of fun with stickers.

lol i then noticed you was from leeds and felt a slight fail.

it's different, its daring, but it's not something i would do, think it suits old vdubs and shit more really.

as i said, each to their own im not one to criticise !!!

i dont expect everyone to like it so having your opinion is all good fella.

yeh i see an old mk2 golf thats been ratted and stickerbombed round rawdon frequently, looks pretty cool, keep thinking it needs ronal turbos would set it off perfect.

16th April 2011, 09:05

I quite like it mate.. i think. lol

Already colour coded, i know what your saying though.

See i dont wanna do anymore because my intention is still to replace the bumper to how it was before, this is just a laugh.

Saying that watch me get carried away and bomb the whole car.

16th April 2011, 12:49

That looks mint! I wouldnt do it to my car but it does look cool

16th April 2011, 17:48

sticker bomb the whole vt kit, ive done under my bonne and spoiler and was thinking of doing the center of my wheels and get some wind deflectors!

all me mate finks it looks pretty darn good, just gta re do a few and lacque/ vinyl wrap them!

16th April 2011, 19:28

ive done the sunroof and mirrors today looks pretty good imo, i dont think im gonna bother laquering or vinyl wrapping it, for whats its cost me ill just re do it again and again.

16th April 2011, 23:45

mate that looks awsome where u get all the stickers from??

16th April 2011, 23:45

pics??? i would at least laquer them

17th April 2011, 01:38

I've proper gone off stickerbombing... Tacky IMO.

17th April 2011, 01:57

That is gash no offence! Still if you like it thats all that matters.

17th April 2011, 10:45

5th person to suggest this to me

dont think im brave enough

17th April 2011, 12:37

do rest of the VT kit might look good

17th April 2011, 22:40

i do like it actualy buddy i wanna do somin similar on the underside of my bonnet. were u get the stickers to do it from??
what u could do i guess is stick the stickers onto a clear vinyl then stick that on so it protects them

whole care would look ace!!

a sticker book

cheers mate, too much hassle to vinyl it really, probs give it a laquer and then when it fades re do it, this hasnt cost alot of money.

18th April 2011, 20:53

what are they just ordinary paper stickers or vinyl??

18th April 2011, 23:58

Walked past this sometime last week & it looked crazy!

19th April 2011, 01:25

LOL, up at Ricky's I see.

Unfortunately though, it upsets me.

19th April 2011, 04:24

Not a fan. It's not even been done that well. If you redo it you need to not have loads of gaps between them.

It's not really a fresh idea, seems loads are copying the jdm bandwagon but hey ho.

19th April 2011, 08:13

may aswell keep going, im not a fan but only cause im not a fan of sticker bombing

19th April 2011, 17:24

Lol it was only done to cover up a fucked bumper, not everyone is going to like it but I think it's a bit of fun untill new fresh bumper goes on, and there is hardly 'loads' of gaps on bumper, some yes, but loads....

As for coping JDM bandwagon, that's all I happen to ever hear you say, I asked for opinions though so will take the bad with the good.

And yes titch you knows it, when am I not there haha.

19th April 2011, 18:39

You are right though, there are gaps, I'll get the book back out and fill them in

19th April 2011, 20:15

not the whole car lol it will look like some kind of sweet. not sure what kind tho lol just do the whole front end, bonnet, wings and arches

looks different lol but in a good way

19th April 2011, 21:09

Cheers for the comment mate
