I hate stickers... only one on my car is a 2GN sticker... and it's black so you have to stare at my car to see it. (its on the bottom of the back window)

I noes! .....6 months ago, i would have called you a tard for putting all that crap all over your box. Now, I absolutely love it. But again, I'm torn. I have always, and still do crave that "clean" for the car.....so very hard to accomplish that clean with stickers. You and glass have pulled it off, I guess I just don't know how.














..............help me.

Simple. I just don't give a fuck and do what I want.

Same with Anthony. He goes so far against the grain, and it works.

well then. i'll grow a set. I need some colour help then. plans are to have stock tails, all red, possible using vinyl for said red. calipers are getting repainted to the red as the paints come off. valve covers getting done red, you see the theme.....but should the stickers be red, match them to the anthracite on the wheels or black to blend.......

As a rule of thumb, I match to the body color of the car. However, I have seen others rock different colors just fine.

and he's talking about random ass stickers like I have on my box

I am not a fan of stickers on cars. I will not ever put stickers on my car. But I am anal that way. I don't care if other people put on stickers if that is what they want and like tho. It is just not for me.

Me too! Except mine is white, but I've thought about getting a black one to replace it for exactly that reason. Damn dude you read my mind.

It's funny, because I love decals and putting them on everything. Just not my car. I save em all for my garage!

Yep, I'll decal up the fridge/wall in the garage..but I like the "stealth" on my car.

I'll have to snap a picture of my sticker...even though you probably won't see it.

I honestly thought bout getting a personalized plate that said 2GN ORG and putting a . sticker between the two... so I don't have to put the decal on. lmao

Also, the Corvette wingies look great on that Accord. That's the best body style for those.

I thought about a 2gn license plate too! Clever idea with the dot haha. I thought about OB2GN or something similar. You should get a 2GN OG plate John! Would be so legit. All of us who live in different states should get em!

I put all my stickers on my detailing cabinet and my tool box, to me that's where they look best. There are no stickers on either one of my cars and I prefer it that way. If it's what you like, roll with it, because in the end that's all that matters not the opinion of us 2gn.org humanoids.

The way I see it, if your car is real clean and simple, they look out of place. But my car you can see coming a mile away.. theres nothing "stealth" about it, so I'm just gonna make it even louder and more obnoxious.

your car is soo clean. black, with some SSR comps?

i think you should rock black stickers, and one other color... not white, way too bright. maybe gold, midnight blue, dark red, silver/graphite?

why thank you kind sir. And they are actually the real SSR's, the Type C's, i thought the Comps were a knock off?

I'm liking the gold idea. I'm staying away from any blue or purple, as I can't tell the difference between the two, stupid colour deficiency.

.....hmmm, maybe gold calipers to match........





someone able to chop it for me? i only haz MSpaint skills......

To tell you the truth. Opi's ice box is one of the only vehicles that can pull a bunch of stickers off. Aside with the Kia Soul, Nissan Cube, etc.
Really aren't many good places to put stickers on a Neon without it looking tacky.
Just my opinion.
