What the extimated price diff ? Because if between 30 -50, might as well go for something that looks nicer and last longer. Anyone with experience ? |

for me i choose sticker stripe. if u not like still can tear it down. no need repain whole thing when the sticker is old, still can do another one and also serve as protection also... in case something scratch your bonet or something there is a chance it scratch your sticker.. :) so just change sticker. |

i choose paint because i wanted it permanent... sticker you got to change it every 2-3 years because it'll start to peel... look at my mini and you'll know. plus with sticker it is harder to polish your car as wax will tend to stick to the edge of the sticker. |
