The side stripe idea....

I've probablhy asked this before but this time it may actually happen... but like always, I want opinions. Very simple, yes or no?

Yea I think it would look good for sure.

Ever think of doing a two tone look, Like fallow the line on the door where the molding was around and do everything below that black? Its just an idea, I picture it in my head good but not really sure how it would look.

Yah too much black i think. Remember I am partial to red after all but I'm still trying to find that perfect ballance. Epic's old stage had the ground effects all black and I liked it... but the ground effects seemed to disapear... I think this is the perfect solution.

Yea It definatly seperates the ground effects good, I say go for it. Its a nice touch and definatly balances it out a lot more.

Whats the verdict on that side exhaust project are you still going to get that done? I can't remeber if you went over it before or not whats going to happen there.

Well not the hijack my own thread but no. Can't do the side exit. Legally, or physically it's next to imposible. I could do it an sacrifice all ground clearance but i'd still get hassled by the cops at every green light for noise, not to mention I'd never be able to smog her. The site of cut-outs alone will fail at any "honest" shop. Oh well.

I'm goint to go against the rest and say no- I think it makes it look like the ground effects are floating below the car...

Your car has enough red and black scheme already-

Good good, this is exsactly why i made this thread. I need opinions. Even though vinyl isn't as perment as paint it's still a ***** to take off once done so i need to make sure this is something i want before i do it.
