Default Stripes....
I was thinking about getting stripes put on my bright red 86. I did make a couple pics on paint for an idea.

white stripes - http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...ithstripes.jpg

Gray stripes - http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...ipessilver.jpg

silver stripes - http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...verstripes.jpg

Black stripes - http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a2...ripesblack.jpg
