Matt!

I can't decide on which Stripes to get! ARRGH! They all look great. I can't decide and it's really beginning to bug me. Advice? Suggestions? Help! I want aggresive cool.

I have an Indi Blue Cooper, Black Glass, white top and mirrors.... (white top and mirrors may change soon to Black) Jolly Roger!

Just for kicks... I could panel the sides like wood and Make it a Pirate Ship... HA HA HA. But just for kicks. Hey, I could offer my Mini for Pirates of the Caribbean Promotions!

Anyhow... Still stuck....

Thanks
Doug

My CB/CB MC is mid-Atlantic right now, but I'll be doing stripes. Anyone with pics of shadow stripes on a cosmos black? How about a deep red, (it'd go with the Tartan Red interior).

Hi Neal, they're 8" and 1.25" with a .75" gap. I experimented starting with 12" and worked down until I got these. I found anything wider, in this placement, creates too much curviture to work the vinyl properly. The only way the wider ones could work would be to start closer to the hoods centerline and I wanted a definite offset. I've seen pics of a few cars with this style, but they seem to be about 5" and, to me, aren't a bold enough statement!
I plan on having the paint shop to "fill in" the areas where they couldn't get the vinyl to work properly (around the scoop and liscence plate indent) with matching paint to give it a more solid stripe, especially in the back.

If you stay with the white top and mirrors, go white stripes.

If you go with the black top and mirrors, go black stripes.

Show us pics when you decide.
