Got the parking sticker today!
mwalsh said:OK, so since things have now shaken out and delivery of at least the HOV stickers is getting a little more predictable, I'm going to discontinue listing the status of those in process.
Now what I personally want to know from you guys is where you're putting them. They are going to look awful no matter where you stick them, that's a given. But I'd rather see yours before I go ahead and place mine, to get a feel if anyplace is less awful than any other. :lol:
Actually, I was thinking (of course ignoring the DMV guidelines for placement) of putting all three on that paper magnet stuff so they can be applied to metal parts of the body (so not the bumpers) and removed as needed.

But in my case they'd only be applied for the drive to work or the drive home. I'd take them off otherwise. It would be hard to remove them from a moving vehicle. Unless they get jacked at a traffic signal. :lol:

The kit only comes with three decals now, all for the rear of the car - two large ones visible from the side and the small one for the rear.

mwalsh said:OK, so I got to play a little bit today. The only decal I personally fine acceptable is the small one. The big ones are pretty obnoxious. Here are a few placements. The bumper installations would be stuck on. The rear quarter panel/hatch ones would be magnetic. I'll try a test piece of the magnetic stuff for a few days on the side to make sure it doesn't blow off at highway speeds. :lol: So what I personally like best so far is just the single small sticker in any of the spots I place it, but probably the proper spot - towards the bottom of the bumper on the rear is my front-runner.
