I was thinking about getting this hood decal, but can't decide on with or without the writing. What do you guys/gals think? Anyone have this on their Evo?

i hate to say this but i am not diggin the decal. it just destroys the fine line and sexiness or in your case machoness of the car. if you want a decal just get the invisaguard. ask southern crane, he has one on his car.

Thanks for everybody's opinion! I don't know what I am going to do yet...I may just leave well enough alone. :)

The decal doesn't look bad to me, but it's just not for me personally.

I vote for you to Save the $57 and put it towards a go fast part for the car :D

Check out ebay. There's this guy that sells this, so it might be cheaper over there, if you really want it.

Not really feeling it. If you REALLY want that look at least buy a CF hood and only paint the center section.

8) hey man you can do what you want to your 30k evo but i wouldn't do that. it looks like the hks evo 7 graphics sort of except not as cool if it had a jdm sponcer on it or something at least it would look like a real touring car thats the idea with putting graphics on a street car right?

When you compete at the Tire Rack SCCA Solo2 National Tour autocross event, they make you put on a bunch of stickers and decals: the Tire Rack windshield decal, the SCCA sticker on the hood, the two SCCA and Solo2 stickers on each side. You actually have to pay for them too--though it's only $3 for all of them. Some people buy magnetic sheeting and put the stickers on those so they can re-use them. (Wouldn't for anything going on the aluminum hood or fenders I guess.)

As for the Kumho stickers, Kumho has a contingency program where if you win your class (and display the Kumho stickers on your car when it's photographed on course), you can win a free set of tires. Given how I did (not too badly for a beginner but only good enough for dead-last place in national-level competition :lol:) I suggested that they should have a "reverse-contingency" program: reward me for not putting their stickers on my car and thereby giving them a bad name. ;) Anyway I didn't have any expectation of winning but the Kumho stickers were free and for once I had a "legitimate" reason to put stickers on my car, so I decided to have fun with it.

Interestingly enough, our very own chrisw put on the Kumho stickers as well--even though he's running Falken Azenis tires (I'm running Kumho Ecsta MXs). He says he wanted the opportunity to win a set of Kumhos as well... but Chris, isn't having stickers on your car for parts you don't have a classic definition of "rice"? :P j/k
