Decal question

I have a voucher for a free side decal from www.decalkits.com and i wanted to get everyone's opinion on what i should get. I can get any side decal priced at $150. I know that there are some of you that dont like vinyls, and i would be interested in hearing your opinions too. Thanks a lot.

I think you shouldn't get a decal, get some of their carbon fiber crap and wrap it on your interior trim peices.

Sorry man, but I don't see any of them on there that I like. So it looks like it's gonna be all up to you man! How did you get that? Were you the weekly winner or something?

No, they sent me some stuff in the mail. A voucher for a free side decal, and like 3 $100 vouchers that i can use on whatever i want, so i think im gonna get that carbon fiber wrap with those vouchers and wrap all my plastic interior trim pieces in it, because i cant stand the look of em right now. The only catch is, i have to put a decalkits.com decal on my car, but its only like 1"x3", so i put it on the small rear windows. And i think im gonna get a vinyl, because in my opinion theyre pretty cool, they make your car stand out a lot. However it cant be too big, otherwise itll look too gay, so im still figuring out which one to get. I mean, it is free, why not get it?

So basically they just sent you $300 dollars in the mail to get free stuff from them? How do I sign up for that I could use some cf for the center of my EVO VII wing that I'm struggling to get put on with my body kit eventually! PM me if there is a secret to getting that man!

I didn't check, but do they sell that big samurai that someone had up in the for sale section? But I'd say maybe skip the side decals. the cf wrap seems like a nice idea though.

in my opinion, since my evo is silver, it doesnt stand out as much as a red, yellow or blue one. Adding a decal will get it a lot more attention, that is if its a nice decal.

why not a veilside evo style side stripe but in carbon fiber framed with chrome? it will still look classy, without going overboard...like that black widow. :P ( although, I did paint an altezza R/C body in silver with that spider on it for a buddy of mine...he hung it on his wall.)
