Default Bullet Holes

First time I have seen this, maybe I don’t get out enough. Driving in traffic I came up on a clean, nice, medium blue 1975 Vette. It was looking really good until I pulled up beside and saw that it had at least 20 stick on decal bullet holes. Sure ruined the moment. That was a first. Any one else doing this to your Vette? :U

yeah ive seen them but dont really care for them. it could make sense on an old beater truck or something but not a plastic vette since they are made to look like a hole in steel

Let's hope they're just static-cling decals that come right off.

I've got about twenty stickers on my car, in a neat little row above my door handle. They look like little horsie silhouettes...:D :D :D

J/K, btw.

I had a co-worker put one of those on my car as a joke. He now understands the meaning of pain...

Couple of years ago when those came out my entrepreneur kid stuck 'em on that magnetic rubber material cut 'em out and sold a ton. You can move 'em around, take 'em on and off. I never could figure out why they didn't stick on the Vette tho. :confused: :D :lol:

You can find them on ebay all the time. I think it would be more fun to just pop a couple rounds into the old beater, but never a Vette. :nono:

I have one on my helmet. Gives me a good excuse when I screw up on the track.

Just a little fun.... but maybe 20 is an over kill.
