Racing stripe opinions?
 
4 Attachment(s)
Simple post, looking for honest opinions. It's plasti-dipped, if I keep it Ill vinyl it. Yes or no, or what you think could be done differently to improve it. I was personally thinking of adding another stripe of the same width on the passanger side of this current one. I like the off-centered look. And if you're asking why I felt I had to do something to bring more black up higher after doing the lip kit black, without doing what everyone else does by vinyl wrapping/dipping the roof.

For just being a simple black stripe, it's kind of loud and a bit obnoxious. Pictures only tell so much but....


I like it. Compliments the lip kit and wheels very well.

I want to like it but it looks too small, maybe a smaller one to the outboard side to take up a bit of space, or maybe just a wider stripe. Still offset though.

Ooo I like the idea of the one smaller offset one, may just try that. As I said I felt I had to do something to bring the black higher up onto the car rather than just the lip. I agree, it is a tad bit obnoxious.

Completely off topic, but what are those wheels? TE37s or Grids? Sizing?

add a thicker stripe or a smaller accemt stripe that runs parallel to it. one easy way to see how the car will look is to pull it up in forza.

I think it looks cheap & nasty.. I'd go with no stripe but a black roof for your car

Honestly, I think it would look better if you just did two stripes or w/o stripes. Your car is still very unique looking though and I applaud that.

What did you use to plug up the antenna?

that what I would do. I did something along those stripes in Forza Horizon and it looks sick.

I dunno. On the one hand, I love racing stripes. On the other hand, I feel like it conflicts with the flow of the car.

I like it. Ive never been a fan of racing stripes but this is nice. I sets your car apart from the others

Somehow a racing stripe just doesn't go with this car.:iono:

I just think it needs to be pushed over to the side more, cut "through" the headlight.
