I like them. I'm just not sure about them. How long do they last? If you put them on, do they mess up the paint under them?
I have a white, I'd put red ones on, if I thought they were safe.

at first i though they were ok when i saw them 3 years ago.
now i think they just look tacky.
on of those boatload of mods thats better left undone. good news is they're fairly easy to reverse. visual mods should be reversible.

I think they look OK, but I have no idea what color stripe would look good on my Polo Green coupe with Tan interior...
yellow? White?
So I'll just leave it be...

I like the stipes. I also have a Polo Green (convertable) and am thinking hard about getting the gold stripes

I like my set. They say, "An American Revolution"
When I redo them after the car gets repainted in the near future, they'll most likely say, "Sinster C4"

Tranzor.. Your new wheels look outrageous, love them.
I think the L98 hood stripe looks great on your car.. but I can see where some colors would be difficult to find a nice contrast or match for..

Like the hood stripes, esp the black on blue pics, but never the ones on the fender.
