What do you think of the new stripes?

I have a homeboy local to me that sells the stripe kit and he wanted to try something new on my car.

I am going to put a red trim stripe along the side of the silver stripe just to accent it a little.

I think they look okay, the best part is if I get tired of them I just peel them off.

Darwin.

Looks pretty good Darwin! I think I would add an accent pinstrip around the border if it were me.

Great looking stripes! I think it needs an outline stripe, too, but it'd look better in the same color as the main stripe.

I like it...very understated look for a stripe. It adds rather than takes away from the look of the car.

Darwin,
I'm not sure about these stipes


I liked the black stripes you had on the car. Maybe it will look better with the trim piece

I like it. Especially since it is a peel off stripe. It can be taken off according to your mood. Can they be re-installed?

I hear you Mike, I like it and think it will look better with the red trim stripe.

I told Mikey he could use my car as a test, he will get me a set in any color I want.

I liked the black also.

No they can not re re-installed once they have been peeled off.

I had a black set of stripes on the car for 1 year and just got tired of them so I took them off.

I am not trying to sell or in any way profit from these stripes just showing the Bruthas and Sistas.
