got plenty of stickers and i'm planning on getting waaaay more! so far i have a few sunshine ski resort stickers and a hoonigan sticker on the back. also got a sticker from my friend that says i'm a community pace car. scratched out the part where it says i drive the limit. car feels strangely faster after adding stickers.

Each go fast sticker adds 5hp. Clinically proven.

Heavy. Add lightness. Paper stickers have negligible mass, and if applied carefully add no aero drag.

Take out all seats (except one). This will especially impress family when picking them up at the airport.
