If that was a small sticker or something, I'd say yes, but PLEASE DON'T PUT A HUGE STICKER ON YOUR HOOD!

I like the flag inside the bowtie, not the outside flames though.

Maybe it's just me but there is no friggin way I am driving around with a huge 3 foot bowtie on my hood.

I would put it on the back hatch. Nothing too big and towards the bottom.

I like the design of it, but i would get it smaller and put it on the back glass in the center, either at the bottom or the top i think that would look the best.

Please dont put that on your hood... Not that I would do it, but if you are going to put it anywhere, stick a smaller one on the top of your rear window

Default Not gunna do it

WELL..... my initial gut check was confirmed by all of your replies and I have decided to keep the class to the car and not do anything like that to it. Possibly a racing stripe at best after I choose a new hood, but thanks all of you for your honesty...
