Not my cup of tea i'm afraid Too boxy and it makes your offset bonnet bulge look all wrong as your trying to achieve symetry with the stripes
but you have an offset bulge.
All IMO of course

Not my cup of tea either. The chequered bits on the bonnet may have been better continued onto the nose. I quite like the sides but not the
bonnet/nose.

Sorry, FAIL for me.
The sides work and break up what can be a bit dull,
but the nose/front is OTT
Sorry again, but you did ask

Don't forget to fit chequered mud flaps too.
Worth another 5mph on the top end. 
Tell them about the bent treacle edges!

Would it not have made more sense to buy a colour you like instead of trying to cover it with transfers?
Anyhow, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I think the saying goes.

I'm with Richard and Reman, sides work well but the top is too cluttered. Love the orange
though and the stainless exhaust trim is very good.

All above IMHO of course

Well who says I dont like the colour? I actually love it and think black and white go nicely with orange! If I didnt then think about this. When
looking for a car to buy of the right spec (model, age, price, engine, location) Could you really make the decision of " I want it to be lime
green or nothing"
So a big assumption the Mr Cebera
and of course yes I think its beautiful. Will be better when I add the mud flaps and dice though hahaha

Good on you for trying something different. Even if the novelty wears off, you can always take it off & change it as you wish. Better
sticky-back vinyl than paint.
If it's helpful, I'd probably have been tempted either to:
- run a larger checker pattern from the nosecone NS to the OS side panel, or
- run a lengthwise offset stripe next to (or over) the bonnet bulge.
But fair do's.

It looks more like a NY Taxi It just looks like someone has lashed stickers on it rather than styled the car
