Thanks for sharing...

Steve, your car its absolutely sick... your mods are aesthetically tasteful and add a wow factor to your car. Must even look more striking in person.

If you don't mind me asking, where did you purchase the red pin striping used your spoiler/ground effects/wing?

Also, are you planning on adding the Jake decal to your CF engine cover?

Thanks!

The pin striping was a total experiment. I knew I wanted the look but wasn't ready to commit to paint in case I didn't like it. So, I ordered a role of 1/4" vinyl pin striping tape. Did a little checking on Amazon to find the right one, and I'm happy with the results. I'll probably have the striping painted on eventually, but for now the vinyl looks pretty good.

The is the link to the one I bought on amazon:

As far as adding the Jake decal, I need to see one with it on. To your point, I'm trying to add some wow, but not go overboard.
