Not only do the stripes look good, the other improvements you did look good too. Well done!

Too busy in my opinion which doesn't matter, so long as it works for you.

Isn't this a continuation of the 1st thread you started on this? Lot of work to decide if your going to put some stickers on your car than can peel off if you don't like them.

hummm…. I'm generally not big on GS stripes but they don't look bad and they do match the rest of the stuff you got going on. I really like the hood stripes and all the carbon accents. It's kinda cool that you matched the hood. Car over all looks great….. So, i dunno i guess if it were my car I personally probably wouldn't put them on but then again if they were already on I probably wouldn't be in a big hurry to take them off either. As long as you like them then I say keep em cause they do look decent and match well… we would tell ya if you were about to go ghetto on us LOL

I like it. And I HATE GS stripes.

But on your car, in those colors, it looks great.
