I am getting my car painted and I am looking at either getting new TURBO II decals for the side, leaving them off the car, or getting the TURBO II name put in a different style text.

Don't say Porsche turbo decals there are at least 6 turbo civics running around with that style of text, and one very mean GSX that i know of that has it in the center tail.

 

I always think the fc's look better w/o decals. Both my cars have no decals.

 

I think the stock Turbo II decal looks best. Or you could put on some GT-X ones or something.

 

I vote leave them off. You can always put them back on later down the road.

 

i like em off.. with shaved rear antenna *if you dont have a spoiler* and shaved emblems =p

 

Well I am going with either a RE spoiler or the Super style spoiler so my antena is already shaved(got a windshield whit the antenna built in it. Right now I am rocking GXL decals because they are the only fender i had laying around to fix my car after the wreck.

 

no decals, no emblems out back either

 

I should have made this a poll lol.

ALright anyone have any pics of a black on black S5 turbo debadged

 

I took my decals off, think it looks a lot better (GTU btw)

 

close enough

 

Leave them off.. Oh and BTW nothing looks worse then "aftermarket" emblems. Even if they are custom made they end up looking cheapo...

Leave them off.

 

Either leave them off or replace with stock ones. I would vote to leave them off, it would clean up the car a little bit. Decals on the sides of cars just look tacky to me. Same reason my "OMG I GOTZ VTEC" stickers came off the side of my new Civic.

 

car looks good with or without it.

 

Idk, I kind of like it with the 'Turbo II' on the fenders. I was never a fan of debadged cars though (I'm actually rebadging my FC, lol). But to each their own.

 

Its a GXL, but it gives u the idea.

 

I actually think it looks kinda boring debadged (on the sides at least) Especially on a non-kitted car, even more so w/ stock wheels. If the car has some kind of ground effects and/or a nice drop and a decent set of wheels it looks clean sans decals. Otherwise it just looks like something is missing.

The rear looks better w/o the plastic "Mazda" plate but the "RX-7" decal is pretty cool (assuming you keep the side decals)

 

Maybe get the Spirit R badges from the FDs?

 

...and an Efini badge on the hood too?

 

See this is what i am thinking, without the decals the car almost looks longer than it actually is.

 

I would say put them back on. The car looks too plain without them there. If you have an S4, definately take off the Mazda sticker in the front, and the Mazda RX-7 sticker in the back, and replace it with the S5 badge. I think that looks best.

 

This is what I have now, S5 body conversion, and tein flex coilovers.



sorry for the shitty pic, i just got it all back together yesterday evening.

 

I think that we all have gotten so used to seeing them without the decals, that when a clean car has clean new decals, I think it looks pretty great.

 

Mine has some aftermarket decal, i kind of like it though.

What about all black with the RX-7 emblem on the back in white and on the bottom right above the rear bumper, have the "Rotary Turbo" decal. I've seen it around here before and think that would look pretty good.

Edit: Note to self... I just tried to look for pictures of it... Don't ever use the search function for the keywords "rotary turbo"

 

I've always like the look of bronze/gold wheels on black cars.

I'd consider getting a shop to re-make the stock "Turbo II" and rear "RX-7" decals in gold/bronze and leave all the rest off
