Were this up and coming generation deprived of sticker books? Is it an age thing because I just don't get the idea of sticking peado bear, cookie monsters, or other random shite stickers on a motor vehicle?
I own a yaris now so i'm a member on a yaris forum and i'd say a good 70% have some shite sticker on their car. Also another point, they seem touchy as fuck, anything slightly negative said about a mod or their car and they throw a 7 and go nuts, as though only arse licking responses are wanted. Again is this an age thing or does it just happen that corsa owners on the whole seem more 'normal'.

Let people do what they want to their car I say, even if you think it looks shit, and they should be able to take stick aswell as praise.

It's just another part of the moddin phase. Back in the day it was massive body kits and lairy colours that everyone creamed about. I'm not a fan of the sticker bombing myself but some well laid out graphics or stickers can look good.

I've got a few on my car but I've come from the vw air cooled scene where vans etc are stickered up. So I blame that haha. Mine isn't littered though

I like stickers and sticker bombing I view it as a graffiti influence!

I've 2 on my car, both of which are just stickers for GRN. Not a fan of sticker bombing but each to their own I suppose.
However massive stun strips that have the make/model of the car plastered along them in massive writing is just plain retarded.

I only have two stickers on my car, just for forum I mainly use.
Mrs has her WHOLE tailgate covered. I wouldn't do it to mine, but it's her car ao I don't really GAF. Doesn't look too bad.
I did notic at trax though, all you need these days for a massive crowd are your car is stickers/wheels/ un-useable suspension. Their choice though

Obviously, I'm not trying to change the world with a post on corsa sport, was more of an observation and then a thought about being an age thing. Is there anyone 25+ with a car coated in stickers? Who's the one with the vTec one on the skoda? I'm also into a well thought out monster energy drink graphic banged on back of a car.

i've only got stickers across the rear wing of the circuits i've visited
personally i can appreciate it when it is done well (i remember seeing a bonnet at a car show which was tasteful) but random plastering just looks immature!
