I say go with it, but only if it flows with the body lines. As for the matte red racing stripes, I don't think they look right. Because of the contrast it looks like they aren't even laying on the trunk all the way(I'm sure it's just an optical illusion)

Plasti-dip is cheaper, you can do it yourself, and it is just as reversible....:happy0180:
