8th Civic Sticker Question

***CivicEX08*** · 03-26-2008, 08:06 AM

This may seem like an odd question, but here it goes. Do the 8th Civic stickers that go on our back windows apply from the inside like a window sticker or on the outside of the window? I'm afraid if I buy any of these that it'll wear out on the outside as my friends Honda logo did.

Thanks.

Thanks.

had my stickers on for over a year and aside from the winter when I forgot I had stickers and I scraped the ice from the window

they held up fine

They're applied on the outside. The vinyl itself is rated as 5yr exterior vinyl. It's meant to be used as an outdoor application. As the above member mentioned, if you're scraping a window, you'd have to obviously take note of where it's located (side window/rear window).

There is a way to have them created to be displayed from the inside, but a number of members have window tint, and don't want to apply it over that, as it's not very visible.

Quick question webby!

The sticker can withstand any type of car wash, correct? Scrubbing the windows and such won't scratch it off?

Thanks man. :)

I have no idea why I even asked that question.

I meant to ask if it'll come off during normal window cleaning. I figured it wouldn't as it's a window sticker, but better safe than sorry since it costs a few bucks.

I clean my windows with a saws-all, will the sticker stand up to this?

does your window stand up to that?

The quality of the 8thcivic stickers is really nice- as webby mentioned, it's a 5 year vinyl. I wouldn't put any other website decal on my car!

just treat it as you would treat any window decal, and you'll be fine.

***CivicEX08*** · 03-26-2008, 07:32 PM

Nice.

At this point, I'm thinking of either ordering a sticker for each window or becoming a VIP member. :)

**webby** · 03-26-2008, 09:24 PM

they are made to stand up to water/rain - washing etc.

obviously taking a snow scraper to it could cause some issues. Sponging and cleaning your car should cause it no harm

If you run into an issue with them - just shoot me a pm

I can only think of this line and you'll get the meaning.

"Did I mention that the tank is a tank? [SOLD!]".
