Sticker Tuning

So typically I'm not a big fan of bumper or window stickers, but I recently gave in and got a few. I always wanted to have track decals of the road courses I like to drive, and I found a Talladega Nights reference I couldn't pass up. Mostly because I have track pads and my brakes DO squeal.

But this got me thinking, what stickers or decals do you have on your Mustang? And how much HP are they good for? Mine are at least 10hp in driver confidence

Ha!! I live 20 minutes from Road America, so next year I will be getting that track sticker when I do my first HPDE there.

I am still on the fence about putting other stickers where one can see them. I am flirting with the idea of "sponsor" stickers. My wife has a vinyl cutter so I was going to get the logo of every manufacturer of the mods installed on my car cut in white vinyl and put on the black radiator cover. That way when I raise the hood at the track others can see the manufacturer logos of what I have installed. See sig below for my mods, and realize that the radiator cover will get pretty crowded, but with all those I should pick up at least 40 extra rwhp!! Does that only work if the stickers are on the outside of the car for all to see?

I must have the lowest hp around lol.

Marilyn has no tattoos on her. She's a classic, down to earth, conservative lady...just how I like 'em. Civil and subdued on the outside, but once you get to know them, buckle up.

Road America is a Beautiful course! That was a fun week. I have the Hallett sticker on my tool box. But not a fan of stickers on my vehicles.

And to think I always though that when you put the track stickers on it increased down force
These are the only ones I have and they are in the center console still






Should be good for an extra 10 MPH in the corners

With nearly 550 whp your car is not in need of additional power by sticker tuning. I would think you need more grip, and I hear the best way of doing that is adding a FALKEN, BFG or TOYO banner on the windshield on rear window

Looks good, and I totally agree with your reasoning

That actually sounds like a cool idea. Some under the hood sponsor bling. If you do pull the trigger on this can you post some pics?

No problem. It will be a work in progress converting all of the logos but it will be worth it.

Cool sticker, I still love the 85 and 86's . One of my high school buddies had a new one in 86. Great car and great memories.

Sticker Tuning

Sticker Tuning... hehehe. Suppose I'm partial to this, it really does give extra 'something'. Yes it's true. I plan to put something kinky.
