Don't let them mess with you. The only reason to put the stickers on are to represent the manufactures that have given you parts! If they have given you parts for your car, you put their sticker on to advertize for them!!!! There is NO need to put on stickers if you paid for it.

Stickers are just a joke, but racing stripes, on the other hand, will optimize airflow over the vehicle...

Man y'all are forgetting the BIGGEST power adding sticker out there....It's the mysterious APC sticker. Putting that sticker on your ride (the bigger the better) will make it feel like you just put a top fuel motor in your geo metro :D :D :D :D :D

It you put enough layers of a sticker you will be more aerodynamic. So stack a ____ load of stickers on your trunk and you will have a custom spoiler.

I put a sticker over my exhaust to increase back-pressure! I was having a tough time between the Greddy, MOMO, & APC sticker. I finally decided on the APC because it made Paul Walker go fast, so it HAS to work for my ride.

APC window stripes add 5hp, but an APC side graphic (at least 5feet long) will not only make your car aerodynamic, but it will add a stunning 15 more hp. Also, the more pep boys parts the better.

Yeah, but you forgot that you need to hangout in front of AutoZone lik in the commercials. This will fine tune your ECU & Air/Fuel Mixture. Also, hot chics from Seventeen magazine will talk to you if you sit on your hood.
