M-performance rocker decals

How do you guys feel about the M-performance rocker decals on Melbourne red coupled with front splitter, rear diffusor and m-performance exhaust?

Unfortunately, side splitter blades are sold out at PIA including CF spoiler.

I'm not a fan. I haven't seen any decals yet that excite me. I own a sign shop and do this for a living but I'm not sticker crazy. Really want to put something discrete on my MG M235i in gray/black tones. May have to design it myself!

Seen the stickers in person, not a fan. They give a small bit of contrast but one owner needed to put gorilla tape on the bottom to keep it from lifting off from road spray. I think there is a reason the factories don't put stickers under the doors :P

I won't be doing it with my car, but it does thin the profile of what is a chunky design. Just make sure you also black out the thin strip under the decal that gets left body colored lest you loose the effect (you can see that on the page you linked).

The thin body colored strip is not the rocker panel. It's the optional side splitter blade the OP mentioned. These blades fit under the rocker panel, and stick out horizontally. This picture shows it:

Or just use the zoom on the picture from the OP's link.

I love the look of the decal but it depends on the colour of the car. White, absolutely. Silver, same. The darker colours, I'd have to see them in person to judge and I haven't yet. Have to say...the MR pics with the decal look good as the colour is still light enough to contrast nicely with the decal.

Here's exactly what you described with the m perf front and rear along with the decals. Don't have any pics of the front with the decal installed but I will take one soon.

For those of us with black cars that are looking for something like this there are decals available that are only the "m performance" part, so like 2 x 6". I got them in silver, they were 4 for 20, so if you screw up you get a second chance haha. My car is completely de-badged other than these, so I wanted something to give people an idea of what the car is, because most people have no clue, even car people. They have held up well to driving use, I installed about a month ago with no problems. I'll post pics if anyone is interested, but just thought I would share.

I like them but too expensive and someone will inevitably will scuff it getting in or out.

I like CF wing but rocker should be same color as car a,d I'm not a decal fan. Starts to look too "Toyota special edition" to me. To each his own. Love that blue one . looks great a little lower.
