What you reckon?

On my old car I used to have a PH smiley in the corner of the rear screen, but not sure whether to buy one for my E38.....and if i do get one, do i make it a small one for a section of the rear window, or get the small 2" one and stick it on the boot or something.... it's not like they really cost much is it smile

cheers

Pistonheads receive money through adverts on their site, they should be paying us to have their logo being advertised by us!

Put a 22inch one on the roof, get into a high speed pursuit & hope they dispatch a helicopter to keep an eye on you, then you'll get a spot for sure biggrin

They offer us a community and opprtunity to make friends we wouldn't otherwise have had.

I'm more than happy to show my support for that community and the fun that's had when I'm spotted or spot another member's stickered motor.

I had a small one on the O/S rear window on my Celica, the window itself was tiny so took up the whole thing. For my Nissan I was thinking of getting the small one in white and either putting it over or under the Nissan badge on the back or over or under the "Z" badge on the O/S/F of it.

I was only joking, agreed the stickers are quite childish for what i view as a 'grown up' forum! There is the option of just the 'ph' address sticker i guess.

I bought the big Gold fker, to go on the gold merc. Its a different shade and I dont have the balls to put it on.


Also bought Shed of the week for the gay car but she wont let me put it on, so both the stickers are sitting on the kitchen shelf. Waiting...... for something or other..

I've got a black 3.5" smiley on my hatchback.
I used to have a white 3.5" on both "C" pillars, but resprays mean they've now gone, So I replaced them with the one on the hatchback.

IMO putting a sticker on your car that identifies you as PHer, as in, someone that's interested in cars isn't childish. And I think , once again IMO, it's a lot more childish when people have these massive emblems welded to their grills
