I think I'm seein' stripes in the near future!

keep us posted! i'm curious to see how it turns out!

I'm really glad more people are opening up to putting stripes on their Zs. When you go with the right stripe it really does look tasteful and sporty, not Riceroni

You've been here since the beginning and didn't jump to the "rice" conclusion, and for that I tip my hat.

I was concerned about that, too. However, she's parked in my covered-carport more than she's driven, so it shouldn't be an issue. Thanks for the heads-up though!

Might look kind of neat. Like a henna tattoo for cars.

I think it would look pretty good, it looks great on my roommates 350.

oo7mech · 05-20-2010, 02:41 PM

I like that.

Darkstar87695 · 05-20-2010, 04:04 PM

kellyefields · 03-02-2011, 07:57 PM

how do you like these?

Decoy_TT · 03-03-2011, 11:37 AM

^need a bigger pic of the whole card for judgement, kelly.

Also, I see you're in Tampa.. Do you know of any meets around here? I'm thinking of purchasing a 370 and would like to talk to some owners beforehand.
