I saw a fairly new BMW 750 with a Che sticker on it... Tacky? I don't know. But it sure was retarded.

Probably not 100k, but it's so FUBAR that I think it's OK.

I don't have any pix to support this, but I always cringe when I see entry-level car graphics/add-ons on a more expensive car. For example, I have seen quite a few last generation Saab 9-3 HBs or even Buick Reattas treated to the "Fast and Furious" Pep Boys graphic treatment that would be more appropriate for an Eclipse. It's as if these drivers/owners associate anything with a hatchback or fastback design with vinyl decals, and peel-n-stick flame jobs.

IB4 matte nut swingers, this trend is simply idiotic. "7-stage paint job? Nahh, I'll just grab a can of Rustolium and rattle away..."
I feel like ive given enough examples (Porsche/Ferrari/Lambo/Benz) to show that this plauge ruins all cars it touches.

Sure, if its for your 20 year old aircooled VW or track Miata or E30, then OK. But on a new supercar? No thx.
