I think so as well, but only if they are not thought out and done right. I have seen some really cool Vinyls on cars recently.
Yeah, I do like graphics on a car to be extremely understated (I don't mind a large rear window decal), like a nice bit of pinstripe work. But oversized sutff thrown onto the side of a car just looks ugly.

So would you say that the kind of stuff you see done in some of the Scion commercials isn't something you like?
Speaking of window decals, has anybody tried one of the vinyl rear window overlays, like you see in pickups?

if you want a "nice" set of graphics, try competition graphics. they have handled the vast majority of team emotion's cars and i have been very fond of how they turn out. but be ready to put down a pretty penny for the kits, i have heard that they can run upwards of 2k.

Yes, I think that would then include the xAs in many of the Scion commercials, which I find confusing. But everybody has their own taste.
Actually I was thinking of something that would actually accent the smallness of the car.
Once again - - Has anybody tried one of the vinyl rear window overlays, like you see in pickups?

XA-llent thanks for looking at my graphics it I can be of any help let me know. Those are some old pics I got a set of 18" chrome omni wheels it really makes the car. I bought the graphics offline for $150 and it took about 4-6 hours to put on some of those curves are difficult. My friend does graphic work out of his shop here in NY. Well i hope this helps a little good luck finding the right graphics.

Everybody has it's own taste - Agree to that.

IMO - Vinyls on side looks really nice. Once again, if one wants their ride to be classic .. leave it stock.

I am working on something for my ride. It's custom made vinyls. Trying to be original. If you noticed my ex-ride had vinyls on the side with my nick name "Nuvz" ... hardly noticeable to someone who wouldn't know !! I was the fisrt one to dare put stripes to my ride over here .. after a month or two ... a few rides could be seen with stripes.

Anyways I'd like to xpress my appreciation to NEMESIS_XA - nice decal man ... and a special WoW for MissBenilda - ur ride is original and rocking.

Keep moding.
