Default Side decal opinion

So I had this Neodyme decal installed this afternoon, all in all I like it as its a good contrast with the stealth PPF...I am torn on the front piece on the bumper

What are your thoughts

1. Leave
2. Remove part on bumper
3. Remove full decal

Not bad. Interesting placement also. Can you photoshop the front piece out?

I'm not a decal guy so my instict is to remove the whole thing. But, you just added the decals, so I suggest that you live with them for at least a week to see how you feel.

I suggest you keep it on for a while and decide for yourself if you like it. That said, I think it looks interesting (without the front piece) on someone else’s car. It’s not my speed but with the matte PPF it sort of looks cool.

Since the countour of the decal on the front fender is not the same as the OEM decal (this one seems to curve down a bit toward the front of the car) the bumper piece actual make sense.
The whole decal flow together.

When you eliminate the front bumper piece, the fender piece looks a bit awkward/unfinished.


By the way is that Xpel XR prime plus window tint that you have ?
