What does/would your Spoiler Decal Read?
 
I've been contemplating getting a decal for my spoiler and I thought it would be kinda funny if it said

"My other car is a Saturn"

I doubt if I'd do it but I thought it would be funny. I'll probably go with something more conservative like "Porsche" "986" or "Boxster" and not turn my Boxster into an ironic bumper sticker.

So I was curious as to how many people have put a decal on their spoiler and what they all read.

I have PORSCHE in silver that matches my paint on the black panel of my spoiler. It might look like a little bling to some folks, but my son really likes it. It is one of the few cosmetic mods I have done to the car besides deampering. And being on the base of the spoiler, folks when I am going fast..... hee, hee, hee,

"And being on the base of the spoiler, folks when I am going fast"

I ment to say: And being on the base of the spoiler, folks only see it when I am going fast....

My Other Car is a Prius
 
If I if put a decal on the spoiler, I would consider "My Other Car Is A Prius".

bmussatti 05-02-2008 06:12 AM

I am not a big fan of stickers, decals or badges. But, how about:

"If you can read this decal, you are too fuc$ing close to my bumper!"

:)

I still want a spoiler decal that says "986forum.com" :

"Catch Me If You Can"

RandallNeighbour 05-02-2008 10:44 AM

Mine says "MACH SCHNELL" in Porsche lettering, all caps.

I used to have a photo of it but I can't find it to post it.

Never forget the cop whose pulling you over to possibly write you a speeding ticket will read whatever you put on the spoiler. It goes up at 70 but doesn't come down until you drop below 50.

Put something like "catch me if you can" on it and well, you're not getting a verbal warning from that cop, that's for sure!

I'm in the same boat with any cop who knows a little German... but I've yet to get stopped for speeding, thanks to my trusty V1.

LoveBunny 05-02-2008 12:49 PM

I never knew you could stick a sticker under the spoiler. I've never seen mine up so I never considered it.

What does "mach schnell" mean? I highly doubt any of the cops around here read German.

Dr. Kill 05-02-2008 12:56 PM

Hmm, this seems like a good place to put my NRA Lifetime Member stickers...

LB, you should get one that simply says, "LoveBunny". I'll bet that will help you find that house-cleaning-laundry-doing-grocery-shopping-all-around-good-guy within 6 months. :)

LoveBunny 05-02-2008 01:08 PM

Either that or I might find a pimp....

I used to have a sticker on the back window of my Lexus that said "PORN STAR" and had a little stick figure woman spanking a stick figure man. I thought it was funny, but I started getting odd looks and questions from a lot of the attorneys I worked with when they'd see my car, so I decided to take it off. Guess I could hide anything under the spoiler though.

rick3000 05-02-2008 01:09 PM

I went with PORSCHE in red. I love the way it looks against my blue car. Although I considered 986, and some other things I went with Porsche because it's classic and everyone can understand it.

I also wired in a dash spoiler switch, so whenever I see someone looking at my car as I drive by or another Porsche I pop the spoiler. :D

Mach Schnell means Go Fast! or Go faster!

It was made popular when Hogan's Heroes was running in prime time. The fat guard used to bark it and the prisoners all the time.

I like that "Mach Schnell"-- "Go Fast!" Too bad I pulled the spoiler fuse out when I got my big wing spoiler and will take out the spoiler mechanism entirely when I have time. I think I still have a sticker from my work on my spoiler that I forgot about.

Hmm... I loved Hogan's Heroes when I was a kid. It's probably online somewhere, but it's probably better in my memory than if I saw it again.

rick3000 05-02-2008 02:02 PM

Why would you pull the spoiler motor out?

To lose weight :) My car is mainly a track car and I don't need the OEM spoiler or mechanism since I bolted on the big carbon fiber monstrocity of a wing.

I want mine to say "Tschuss!" as in, "LATER!" auf Deutsch :P!

rick3000 05-02-2008 05:57 PM

Thanks!

It was either red or metallic silver, I am glad I went with the red. It turned out a lot better than I thought it would! :cheers:

Well, sometimes you get lucky. I got of with warning with this:

LoveBunny 05-02-2008 09:02 PM

rick3000, that looks really good in red, better than I'd pictured.


As far as getting pulled over, nothing can be worse than when people put stickers about smoking pot on their car. I mean, why don't you just put "Hello, Officer, I'm stoned" on your bumper.

lapis986 05-03-2008 10:49 AM

life is good!
 
my spoiler has a "life is good" sticker on it with the smiling man face. I figured at 70 or above, these cars really come to life and it is good indeed to be behind the wheel. My brother almost peed his pants when i lifted it in the parking lot to show him. a few minutes later he was driving it for the first time and could not stop giggling.
life is good in a boxster...

eqs 05-03-2008 12:27 PM

Hogan's Heroes - that dates us doesn't it? :D

Cheers :)

SeattleBoxers 05-03-2008 03:50 PM

I need to get one that says, "My Other Car is a Boxer."

That should confuse some people.

'Warp Speed" would be a good sticker too.

Kurt W 05-03-2008 04:09 PM

I probably wouldn't do it, but I'm half tempted...

"PhD in Traffic Survival" or possibly,

"F.O.P. - Platinum Member"

I've often seen the window decals and wondered if law enforcement would cut you a break.

tommy986 05-03-2008 06:10 PM

Mine has a "tatoo". Some of you might recognize the design.

squeak 05-03-2008 06:50 PM

Here's mine...was already on the car when I bought it, not sure if I really like it that much.

rebeltown 05-06-2008 07:22 PM

I had one on my BRG Healey 3000 that was green background and white lettering that said: "ROAD RAGE-NEXT TEN MILES". I mounted the sticker on a sheet of that magnetic flexible material you can find in a craft store. It stuck well to the Healey's trunk and I could remove it and switch it out with another one of my choosing. I think I will try to find another road rage bumper sticker... Is the black panel plastic?

ISUnorth 05-06-2008 08:21 PM

Being a newbe I hadn't even thought about a spoiler decal. I think I have found a place for my Iowa State University decal!

Before I installed my Ruf Turbo spoiler, my oem panel read "I'm Gone"
