decals, if not overdone, can look good. try to stay away from Bumper Sticker-type ones though, like the "slow traffic..." one. i find bumper stickers very tacky on cars such as ours. Windshield banners are good, if done right. having decals on the rear quarter window looks good on tibs. just don't over do it. just try to avoid tackiness.

yeah, thats sometimes called a role call. Sometimes people list em on the door, along the sideskirt, on the hood, on the rear hatch glass, and on the rear quarter glass. It looks classy as long as you don't over do it. With a cobalt blue tiburon I'd say either go with lighter blue or silver, those colors will look classy. The white would look cheap. Also don't do the bumper sticker. It'll look better w/o it.

If at all possible, try and resist the urge to put role call stickers on your ride. I think that they look really cool if they are done right.

But there is one major drawback. You are basically making a shopping list for any would be thieves in your area. Especially if you put an audio company's name on your car.

It is all up to you, silver would look really good on blue. I don't think too much about the bumper idea though.

The nice thing about decals is. They can be peeled off if you don't like em.
