That is pretty subtle and clean looking. I added some black GS strives to my NMB vette, but you have to get close to the car in order to see them.

I was wondering what (if any) stripes to add to my FRC. Does anyone know if there is a company that makes the stripes in the new digicamo? Yes, flamesuit on, I am just curious.
