  • Advice on StickerBombing.

    Since so many of you sticker bomb roof racks and lips, etc. I thoght I would ask you guys what you thought could help me on doing some parts of my engine bay. Primarily I just want to do the engine, battery, and fuse box cover. But, Im afraid that due to the heat and stuff that they will peel off very quickly. I've heard people saying to use primer to get them to last longer.

    But any other advice?

      ^^^^good advice

      You can't do the engine, it is teh hot.
      Relocate your battery to the back, and relocate your fuse box to you GB.

        If you truly want to do it, do it selectively. Don't just shove a load of stickers on there and hope chaos effect will make it look nice.
        I think stickerbombing is a very 'love it or **** it' taste, and part of the 'tacky' opinion of it comes from the peel and the fact that nothing about it is in any way co-ordinated. If you pick and choose your stickers carefully, trying to keep them all within a similar colour scheme (eg for your car I'd stick with blues, silvers and whites) it could work out and fix stickerbombing's rep. Buy good quality vinyls for vehicles, preferably stuff that's 7 years plus, none of that paper stuff. Paper peels no matter what you do to it, and you want to do your bay, in which it is hot. I warn you now, it is more expensive than you think.
        If you're really seriously going to do it, then seal it off with properly sprayed on body-grade glosscoat after.

                  Make sure to rust a random body panel, and geget a roof rack to compliment the sticker bombing.

                    Obviously. Their a great conversation starter. When Im at a red light I look over to the person next to me and ask him if he wants to see my stickers. If he says yes, I just jump out and pop my engine bay bro! and he goes like .

                    I think it COULD look good if done in moderation. I wasan't going to spam the whole bay with it, or even the whole engine cover just the very top and bottom part and leave the middle as is. But now I'm thinking that it will probly take more work to get them to stick then I want to do. Anyway this was just a possible idea. Thanks guys your the best.
