Stripes Yes or No

Post by Scottynic » Wed Sep 12, 2007 3:33 pm

Was thinking of adding stripes to my new car in a sort of GT40 style 2 over the top and 2 smaller along the side but with white stripes on graphite.

Just wondered what people thought before makin a fool of myself! :?

Stripes seem to be the preserve of birds, old folk and those with an unhealty obsession about a pre-pubescent Natalie Portman! :wink:

It's your car :wink:

I'm undecided about stripes TBH. Have considered it in the past, but could never be bothered in the end. Always something more important falling off...

yes... but it's not the stripes making it look stupid... That rear wing keeps catching my eye (and probably anyone elses eye who happens to be near the kerb).

TBH, I quite like stripes.... they can always come off again if you don't like them.

All the scoops wings and race bits along with the stripes make that look OK.
