Flat Clear Rally Stripes

Just got the car back from the body shop and thought I'd share.

We wanted something very subtle and different.....

Re: Flat Clear Rally Stripes

THANK you for posting those! How do you like them? Do they look more prominent in person than in the pics?

See, I wanted to do something...but something subtle and I was trying to figure out how that would look. Nice job, for sure and looks great on your color. I wonder how they would look on Cyber Gray...

They look great and I have only seen them in sun for a couple of minutes (rain, rain go away!!) From about 30 feet away you can barely tell until you get closer but when you do they POP. I think they'd look really good on CGM. The cool thing is in the sun, you can still see the metallic thru the clear.

Re: Flat Clear Rally Stripes

I went with eggshell since it was more flat than satin.



And Jason, I'm still looking for that tube....

Re: Flat Clear Rally Stripes

They look ok, but what's the point of having stripes if you can barely see them?

have you ever heard of ghost flames? same effect here. stripes dont have to be bold and bright. sometimes its better to have them subtle than bright and bold. i think that doing something like this would be perfect for the scheme of my car...if i were to paint the hood.
