Default Custom Paint Idea

I am sure everyone has seen the "My other ride is..." bumper stickers out there, but what do you all think of getting "MY OTHER RIDE IS YOUR MOTHER" put somewhere on my MSG Vert. Too childish for a Vette? Keep in mind I am 18 and it seems funny to me now, but I was wondering how other Vette people would respond. Also where should it go on the car?

No way I would put that on my car. To me, bumper stickers like this show a lack of maturity. Hope you decide against it.

Bumper stickers are worse than dealer stickers on Vettes!! You wanna put that sticker on your ride, put it on your "other ride".

Not a bumper sticker, it would have to be paint, or decals, no bumper sticker will ever see the back of my Vette.

And you have to admit that it is at least a little funny. And not a bumper sticker, just to make that clear.

It is lame but, c'mon guys, he's 18. I could be 18 twice and still have change left over. Anybody besides the poster actually remember what 18 was like?

Didn't think so.

Plus, with all the younger guys we've lost to the ricer scene, I'm always impressed with one that drives a vette, whether he paid for it himself or not. Heck, he coulda' had his folks buy him a Honda.

Surely you jest! This is the Corvette forum not the chevette forum.
A bumper sticker would make you Vette look cheep. IMO

Oh man that is hilarious. Please do it so I can see your face when you pull up next to some 60 year old man and he tells you that you must be one hard up SOB.

Trade your Vette in on an Accord with a bumble bee muffler (trying to be nice). That's the mentality! That statement might be funny with 18yr olds but the maturity level is above the 8th grade in Vette circles!
