Lightbulb Message under the spoiler ?

I have been toying with the idea of sticking a message under the spoiler of my coupe... that black matte area is calling to me to stick on "bye bye" or something...

Anyone else had the calling... what have you got ?

Ideas under a spoiler to...

It's been done once or twice. The best one I remember (back when Crossfires were still pretty expensive) was "Hard Work".

Another good one I saw on the brake light of a Honda CBR1100XX was "U Lose".

Howdy,

I'm lookin' for one of those stickers of a picture of Johnny Cash giving the finger. I've been searching but they are hard to find !

it would be cool if you had like 550 whp. but you have 220. you're only gonna embarrass yourself with "bye bye" when a turbo four cylinder leaves you in the dust. our cars aren't quick enough to put that on them. unless you're doing some serious power upgrades. and intake exhaust doesn't cut it.

Actually, it's only 215 H.P.

Question Re: Message under the spoiler ?

I know this is personal taste, but I just dont get that whole 'powered by MB' stuff...

MB make very nice cars - but nothing special and very much 10 a penny here...

Perhaps it is a european thing... but to me... I like the idea of driving a 'very american' car - looks so different to all the others.

The merc convertibles here (and everywhere I suspect ) are driven mostly by women of a certain age who shop and 'do lunch'... so why attach yourself to that crowd ?

Don't get me wrong, I was pleased to find out that the mechanics are solid and reliable - but that's just it - they are solid and reliable... and duuullll.

Am I missing something ?

in that case, you're pretty much as good as a little ricer if you put "bye bye" anywhere on your car. sure, its an expensive car, but be honest with yourself, OUR CARS ARE SLOW.

Well perhaps I have a high embarrassment threshold... but there will always be a quicker car round the next bend... so why let that dictate what you put on your car ?

My Ferrari had 380 bhp, and got hammered a few times by 4x4 rally imports... but heck, its about how you get there sometimes...

I think that was a little harsh comment !

Guess you will hate the flames I want to put on the wheel arches and neon tubes under the flared skirts ?
