Should I remove the factory stickers to finish blacking out?

**sharptransam** · 07-24-2007, 03:39 AM

I have a black 02 WS6 that is blacked out in front, and I will be VHTing the side markers soon. should I remove the 'ram air' sticker from the hood and the red bird on the rear? any opinions welcome!

yeah go for it, i'd be interested in buying your rear filler too if you get a solid black one [don't paint the one you have] It looks like it's nice and solid red, mine is faded.

some bitch backed out of her driveway WAY too fast and hit me with a 06 f-150 truck. It's fixed now and her insurance paid for it. I need to go get some new pics...with the key lines down the side. a$$holes.

seems like afterthoughts doesn't carry them

PM Mr. Luos and ask where he got his

Or just get some mineral spirits and wipe the decal off... I swapped mine with a member on here.. his was almost faded.. and mine was as your is.. since I wanted to go silver graphics, we swapped.. actually all I had to do was use soap and water and a little elbow grease.. lol.

I've got some goo gone stuff too. does it help to heat those up like the dealer sticker or not?

GOOD LORD! please don't trash that rear filler-swap for mine, half of it has faded anyway

On all black cars I've always liked everything blacked out. Gives it a incognito look.

Ditch them both

Maybe we can meet up someday

TSS take yours off, sand it, polish it, and then give me a call I can cut a decal for you. Hey you could even design some kind of shit for it and it would be a one of a kind.

**Mr. Luos** · 07-27-2007, 05:35 PM

I left my center piece stock.
I also left the 'ram air' stickers on the hood.

I consider mine 'mostly' blacked out.

I also painted the mufflers a flat black to kinda 'hide' them a little from how they were before...you can see the difference in the pic above and this one below.

Also got my hands on a CETA WS.6 badge for the rear of the car...

Just some ideas.

**sharptransam** · 07-28-2007, 10:38 PM

Yeah. I want one of those ceta badges, too bad they're like 100 bucks that I could use somewhere more useful.

You still have a nice car...I wish mine was that clean!

Mine was $60. Girl's price when she worked at the stealership.
I believe one of our sponsors should be able to get it around that.
