Prodrive vinyls - where to put it on Hawkeye
 
Hi

I have a blue hawkeye sti type uk ppp and have recently purchased two Prodrive vinyls (https://www.demongraphics.co.uk/inde...737aqj347vll63) in white and fairly small at 6" long. I was going to put one on each side of the rear spoiler (towards the top, as the car in this clip has done - although my vinyls are a bit longer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_Sj8POTNyY) but I had a second thought that I may put one on each of the rear doors, in the bottom corner near the wheel arch, or I may not put them on at all. What do you guys think? I haven't received them yet so I can't get an idea yet of what they may look like. I want my car to be fairly standard"ish" but just have a subtle individual touch. Do I need to inform my insurance company that I am sticking a couple of vinyls on (even though my car is tuned by Prodrive)??

First time I have ever done vinyls too. I assume I need to wash any trace of wax off, using washing up detergent, and then dry and then apply the vinyl using a "squeegy"?

Thanks for any comments or opinions.
Cheers
Matt

not kean on stickers personally, especially just odd random ones.

as for application, clean the area and remove wax etc, and if there small then remove them from the backing, and apply (dont use water unless they are big)

Does anyone have a pic of Prodrive vinyls on their rear spoiler?
 
Thanks. I'm still in two minds about putting them on. If I do put them on they would definitely go on each end/side of the rear spoiler. My car is blue and the vinyls are fairly small about 6" and white. Does anyone have pics of Prodrive vinyls on their rear spoiler?

Our hawkeye came with official Prodrive stickers from the dealer, one on the bottom right of the boot lid and one on the front bumper. just above the v-ltd splitter. Oh and the standard Nurburgring sticker! :rolleyes:

Tbh I think I'm going to remove them when I get chance, they do look a bit cheesy!

If this was somehow only available to people that had actually visited the Nurburgring then they would be alright but when you see them for £1.99 or what ever they are on eBay then they are just cheesy...well, desperate really.
