War paint

i think i like them enough to have them painted on. they definitely tie the red calipers and seat script in.

Why would you want to paint them on when stick on graphics look really good?

. The vinyl is nice in that if you change your mind somewhere down the road, you won't have to repaint the car. And I know you didn't ask, but not sure about bringing the stripes over onto the hood itself - maybe it's just that it is so different. Otherwise, good looking car.

I like the stripes on the fender, not liking them on the hood.
