Which way up was that placed?

When you put one of those on you need the skill to back it up.

When at the dealership I saw a Grand Cherokee in the body shop. The Jeep was wrecked something fierce. Looked like it rolled and was knocked around like a pin ball. Oddly enough, there was a little part of the rear bumper that looked near new. On that little spot was a bumper sticker that said "God is my co-pilot". I wish I'd have taken a pic of that.

I don't like bumpers stickers because they allow people to identify you easily. Like when you report them to the cops. Or pass them because they are driving slowly. Or your having good fun on a beautiful day on a twisty road.

I got this one for my sailplane trailer; a 31 ft. long tube with a fin.

So did NY Post flip the picture of the bumper sticker so you can read it, or was it put on the car upside down?

Lost a high-speed battle with a guardrail...ha!

I have two GRM bumper stickers on the little stationary windows behind the rear windows of my car. And a 'This car climbed Mt. Washington' sticker on my car. I don't think people will remember my car that way if I do something stupid. Because when cops ask them "Ok, bumper stickers, good, but what make and model was it?" 85% of the public will say "Black."

The 924 guys are concerned that it was one of the Aussie 924 folks:

Pretty damned scary. Hope he pulls through.

I dunno how psyched he's going to be if he doesn't have a face.

Oddly enough he was driving just fine on his planet when he hit a bump and landed upside down on ours

15 years ago here in the midwest those stickers were EVERYWHERE. It was always fun to go to the junkyards and look for cars that were totalled to hell and back with one of those stickers on it.

I don't like bumper stickers, but that being said, I did purchase 2 of the Stig Family stickers from Gearhead T-Shirts. Just need to finally decide if I'm gonna put them on the P71 or leave it clean and cop-like. LOL
