Racing stripes?

Thanks everyone! I'm contemplating either doing matt black wheels or gloss black with a polished lip.

Erret & DarkStar, I think the stripes look great (obviously).

Here're two better pictures of my car with the stripes:





The red wheels are off the car for now-- having them refinished matte black barrels & gloss black lips to make them less ostentatious.

Are those photoshops or did you do it also? It really looks great, and i'd be happy to be one of the first of many!

Cow, yours look awesome! Thanks again for the idea. Can't thank you enough!

Not a photoshop, mine is real. I called the company that handles the logos on our work trucks and told them what I wanted and went by for measurements last week and they put them on yesterday. Mine are only on the driver's side.

Cow - I am originally from Monroe. Family still lives in Monroe and S'port.

I agree, I think they look great on all our cars. Like I mentioned before, when I saw the title of the thread this was what popped in my head.

Ah cool. I'll be going to Monroe for the first time in years next weekend. I try to keep my Monroe exposure to a minimum lol.

I just moved here about two years ago (& it wasn't full time until about a year ago). I'm originally from the New Orleans area, but got moved here for the Haynesville Shale work, met a girl, blah blah. I'm trying to drag her with me to Houston, though.

Yeah, Monroe is not the same as it was when I grew up there. I get back once a year for Christmas and it is depressing driving around and seeing all the places that have closed.

Good to hear! I think they turned out really well. I like the color choice on PG

The idea was alittle ricey but once you get past not doing the classic muscle car stripes and incorporate the hood lines it looks really good! I also would like to see the black stripes on a PG. Its a definite track car possibility

Went to the dealership today for an oil change and they loved them.

When I first did mine, I was expecting negative reactions, but it's been overwhelmingly positive. A friend of mine even decided to put stripes on his 135I.
