Looks good, man!
The boot is tough to do, but I like the complete stripe (maybe I'm biased?). I like it in the front too, don;t get me wrong.
Of course that would mean you would need to go all of the way down the front too. If you think you would want the full strip someday you should do it all now in case there is any fading issues what would make the back look darker than the front.

You guys all make me want to rip off my offsets. These look really cool, although, I think I like Herby74s front the best

No stripes for me, I'm afraid my hyper blue Mini would look less hyper.

Excellent questions...I'm in the same boat...it's time to take off the stripes...they are worn out. I'm probably going to get new ones...but slightly different.

I am concerned that paint will come off with the stripes.

I hear ya...I'm thinking of having a professional detailer take off the stripes and then completely detail the paint in order to get rid of any residue. I'm thinking they would be the best at ensuring the paint stays intact, and then for making sure I don't have "dirt stripes" due to the sticky residue attracting dust.
