Beside the 4 things being absolutely ***HUGE*** they want you to stick it on all four sides.
Call me a ninny, but I am not about to stick some ***HUGE*** sticker on my paint that I so meticulously wash and wax. The things will fade, or at least fade or damage the paint underneath them. I would guess getting them off will do damage to the sticker or paint. Talk about a guaranteed depreciation ploy. I may as well wallpaper the car with bumper stickers while I'm at it. >:o(
So I'm thinking of making up some clear plastic plates that will go into the rear triangle windows and make them all (the front and back too) mountable with suction cups. The stickers I could mount on them. To this end they'll be removable and locked inside the car. I would not have to have some idiot rip it off the exterior paint as one has already reported in one Prius forum.
I don't know who thought up these ***HUGE*** things but they could be spotted from an aircraft. Someone in Sacramento needs to buy a Prius and then get these lovely stickers. Of course if it was a state purchased vehicle, they'd no doubt plaster the thing with them then sit back and proclaim, "I don't see anything wrong with them." Well, Duh! They should have to buy "their own Prius" and see how the HOV sticker caper flies.
A simple dot or something on the license plate would suffice. I doubt if any cop could not tell what a Prius was or what the HOV dot on a plate signifies. Oh well, maybe that's just too complex for the cops so we get this ***HUGE*** billboard to meld into the paint.
Not happy about these things...... Least it was only $8 shot.
