I wouldn't do it. Your car looks way too clean as is, plus chrome decals scratch very easy.

plus, i think everyone with a black f-body has everyone telling them their car looks like the batmobile. I've heard it a million times, and it eventually just got the nickname the dark knight, from a friend calling it that all the time.

plus, the huge windshield decals look very tacky, and really take away from the car itself. keep it clean. if you want the decal, just do a smaller, more tasteful one

Well I think if anything you should get the Dark Knight symbol instead of the yellow batman one. It would flow better imo, but definitely not something too big cause that's a little tacky.

If it were me doing something like that, I'd do it on the filler panel between the tailights, it would flow better and not be as noticeable. On the back window stick out, unless you did like a flat black or something.

We've already came to the conclusion that all our cars are called batmobiles, any color regardless. I wouldn't put the batman call sign on your car...that's almost as embarrassing as those decepticon decals on 3000gts and ford pickups that I see every other day. if you wanna make your vanity plate "B4TM4N" or "G0TH3M" go ahead....

we've got a situation! candy's getting expensive brah...how else am i gonna get little boys in my car??

who's your car's target audience? high school girls? I can't speak for everyone but most of us aren't out to impress anyone with our cars, so the choices i make with my car aren't for other people's approval. The "shiny sticker" was kind of impulse thought and i probably shouldn't have even posted it on here but, oh well could be worse, i could be trying to impress girls by shaving my ***** and tanning... fistpump

YARLY, did i say im trying to impress the people who say my car looks like the batmobile? they gave me the idea but believe me its not for them, and not to be taken too seriously, thats the problem with guidos, no sense of humor.

and everyone knows that your avatar is like everything else on the internet, 100% accurate

The way I see it, if you want to put the Batman sticker then DO IT!! Don't listen to what anyone else has to say. I mean it is your car and you could whatever you please with it. And personally I wouldnt mind seeing that Batman sticker, cause Batman ****** kicks ***!
