Post Should I...?

I'm needing something else to do to my car, and I have played with the idea of racing stripes before, so I decided to photoshop it before I spend $135. Going by this picture and what you've seen before, do you think I should do it. Also, I know after a while if I wanted to take thm off that the car would need to be repainted, but how long could I keep them on without that problem.

I think you should. I think it's always good to have your car a little different then the one's around it.

BTW, your car is on my background with the lightning strike.

I would definately be the only Camaro with stripes. Right now, I am the most modified Camaro in my town. I've never seen anyone else's car in person that has more stuff than my car, and I really don't have much at all.

By the way, good choice on your wallpaper

I'm not a big fan of those heritage stripes, but I LOVE the more traditional rally or "viper" stripes, think "Viper GTSR" or "Gone in 60 Seconds" etc... etc..
My reasoning is because I think the heritage ones look incomplete, they just stop at the end of the hood... and to me that's tacky. No offense to anyone that has that package... jus my $.02, ( cha ching )

I'd like to make that .04 cents. I agree. I like the idea and look of the stripes going all the way down to the GROUND!! Stopping at the hood gives it an incomplete look. Hopefully I'm doing the viper stripes in the future (by the end of the year!) Glad to know someone else already likes the same idea.
