I’d be willing to bet it’s just the photo.
These stripes look so much better than the factory ones. I especially like that they don’t run down thru the lettering. That just looks wrong, IMHO.

. The stripe is "straight" but it is not centered at the bottom. It is at least an 1/8 inch more to the passenger side. The stripe with the mirrors look killer though.

I like it. Especially matched up with the red mirrors. I think the red interior trim would also play well with that theme.

I think I will do something very similar to what you have done. Question is with the convertible top being carbon flash should I do the stripe across the top. I think I should because the red outlines will be discontinued if not? Also I had XPEL PPF installed, if for some reason I wanted the stripe removed, would the XPEL come off as well?

Thanks.
