New decals you're sure to hate.

[newman]

Apparently god hates the new stickers, as I just caught in the craziest MONSOON ever.

On the thruway.

With corded rear tyres.





With no roof.

I guess it's karma. :P

I just got done pulling out the seats and all the carpet and had to wet-dry vac out about 3/4" of standing water. from the seat area.

If that's a goal, then buy a Chevy Impala. Those graphics will look fine there. Otherwise, I agree with SweetDaddyD, mini63, and others; it comes across as a bit juvenile on an Exige. However, as with many things in life, it's a matter of personal taste.

I bought my car to drive it, not talk about it.

I love the car and think it's awesome. I bought it for me. I just wish I could drive it and no one would ever talk to me about it.

And hey, I'm in my 20s

Then you should have gotten license plate "Murderer" instead of "Turtles" and painted "Free Sex Offenders" on the car and hung a cut ankle monitoring bracelet from the rear view mirror..

jolly roger is fine, but not sure what the "f*ck!" has to do with it.

[sleepe]

wow, that is really lame.

[Noisycow]

I wore my I Love Turtles t-shirt to the Portland Bite and not one person commented. That joke must be finally over. Poor kid.

[Noel]

Love it.

He explained the "F*C K" in his first post.

[jesterbot]

Just because he can explain away the "f*ck" with some moniker created to fit the acronym (rather than the other way around) doesn't make it any less juvenile. It definitely comes across as teenage mentality at best - "skulls are kewl! cursing is kewl!!!"

Hope you already have a girl... if not, doubt this will help your chances.

Also kind of a shame doing this to a semi-exotic... you went from classy to plywood-spoiler-wood-screwed-to-the-back-of-my-rusty-corolla with just a little vinyl and an overkill "look at me" rear diffuser when I doubt you actually track your car enough to need the additional down force.

Revert to stock!

holy crap, he's having fun with HIS car...GET HIM!!! :-D

It's fun, it's a car, it's a sicker.

go for is WHO CARES!!!

[erics75218]

on the same note, was watching the ALMS race yesterday and thought the Corvette Racing skull was TOP NOTCH.

Very well done, didn't ever even realize it was the silhouette of the Vette logo to make the "eyes/nose" area of a skull....NEAT!!

Unfortunatly, the silhouette of the Lotus logo is a kick ass disc......so.........maybe you could use 2 lotus logos as EYEBALLS in some sucky logo. ;-D

Hmmm, you got my number, man!

Is that supposed to mean something?

The interior was painted black to match the other interior black trim... my car would look perfectly factory/OEM to anyone who didn't know how poorly Lotus trims it as stock.

How that compares to a skull and crossbones and F*CK! decal is beyond me.

[newman]

Well, painting interior trim is totally a ricer move, and yellow screams look at me more than any other color (+/- KG).

Apples = apples.

It's OK, I do ricer sh*it too. Fu*ck, just read my sig. It's like a ricer's wet dream. I can also rebuild a car almost from scratch, though, too... IDK if that makes it better or worse. :-P

[jesterbot]

Painting the grey plastic "fake aluminum" to the same textured black as the door sills, dash, etc is now "ricer"?

And now the majority Lotus color (Saffron/Solar Yellow) is "ricer" too?



Keep trying, I'm sure you'll come up with something good eventually...

[newman]

I don't have to come up with anything. I'm just gettin my lolz in at work before it's quittin time. Then I'm gonna go see if I can score some JB beav at the local HS with my sweet new skull stickers, will report back on results.



Also, my HVAC trim is painted too.
