Question RALLY GRAPHICS???

Heres one for u fellas!!

Ive got a '97 Classic Scooby in silver and im thinking of putting on a full rally decals kit in Gold, to match the 18" gold alloys.

What does everyone think?? Will it enhance the Scooby rally heritage or ruin the classic lines of the Impreza??

Has anyone got any pics of silver Scoobys with the gold rally graphics on it, just wanted to see what it would look like!!

Cheers Bondy24.

Stickers belong on rally cars, not road cars, IMO.

I think stickered up Scoobs just look like rally wannabies.

i.e Crap!

I have just put up some before and after pictures in the gallery, so lets have a look at yours then.

I do like the stickers, it makes an instant transformation, just in the same way as removing them from a long termed stickered up car.

I don't agree

But then I have a blue car and wouldn't want any other colour

Personally, I don't like too many, I don't like C-pillar or front door shopping lists and white box for race number on the front doors but each to their own!

IMO if you do it, and like it, screw everyone who doesn't - its your car!

You didn't take the stickers off with a hammer did you?

Hope it's not to serious though. If it wasn't for the fact it was going in to the body shop would you have taken them off?

I once tried to put a pink front grille badge on with a mallet and missed the ideal contact point. Wrote the bleeder off aswell.

That doesn't look like the high street, or the car park at Tesco. You aren't related to the infamous T5NYW are you?

If you see this T5NYW.... We did meet at the Ross meet where you asked me "you haven't seen the photos have you?"

i dont like rally graphics on impreza's unless its the full rally replica which includes the bodykit.... Still its nice to have a change cos it keeps the car interessting. Just get it done right, try to mkae the graphics flow with the car, not just like youve got a 'sticker pack' and have 'placed one here, one there' look

No ones remotely interested in your self opinionated opinions bubba,pinch of salt springs to mind.

why dont you do yourself and everyone else on this thread a favour and go trolling somewhere else instead of ruining someones post.Nobody gives a rats *** about your opinion.

I say to the original poster,if thats what you want to do then go for it,don't let these losers change your mind

Hey, scooby-tc! Guess what... it's a free country and I say that your stickers are a universe away from what ANYONE could call tasteful.

And what are opinions, other than self-opinionated, you wooly-minded feejit?

The thread originator asked for opinions about stickers and I gave mine, as requested. You posted your "look at mine" bragging pictures, and I happen to think it looks utterly ****!

Loser.

Youve given your opinion now **** off,as for bragging you couldnt be further away from the truth,the guy asked about graphics on a silver classic i gave him an example of something different.If you dont like them its up to you,but dont for a minute think anyone cares a toss about your childish remarks.Besides i like having probably the only silver 2 door with those graphics on in the UK its called exclusivity and im happy if nobody else has the same

I wont be posting anymore on this thread as i dont want to encite losers like you and Ted to wreck a prefectly good thread.

Besides my car is a second car and only goes out to shows,meets etc not a daily driver

You also have a couple of dents on your front wing; perhaps you could put a tasteful sticker over them.

I'm still wondering how a pinch of salt sprang to his mind.

The term "take it with a pinch of salt" means "treat the subject with skepticism" which I WAS doing. Scooby-tc is neither skeptical nor tasteful.

He does, however, do a reasonable line in petulant slaggings-off.

Thanks for the replys to this thread.

Each to their own i suppose!! Thanks for the pics TC, its good to see someone has shed a new light on graphics for the Impreza and to be honest i quite like them!!

Havent fitted any graphics at the minute, but if i do decide to i'll post some pics to see what everyone thinks. Not that i care what people think. If i like the way my Scooby looks thats all that counts.
