New Stripes on the Cabrio

I thought people might like to see a new take on some stripes. Mike at Aesthetic Creations incorporated my design into these stripes. I think it looks pretty good.

WE have so much AC stuff, we are sending his daughter through college with our designs! I love his work.

+1 for the mirror caps. Looks really nice.

Definitely a different look for her.

X whatever number we're on for the red mirror caps. You really need them if you're painting the scoop red.

OK I agree. Does anyone have a set for sale or know where I can purchase a set. Apparently the dealer sells primed mirror caps which then need to be painted. I would prefer not to go this route.

Gooooooooooooood luck finding them. On this whole board, i would bet there's not 25 people with Red Mirror Caps.

Might as well do what I did and bite the bullet, get a pair for a dealership and have them painted. Some have gone the route of DIY painting if you want to save some money and maybe sacrifice a little bit in quality.

I'm sure there are...look at all the people w/ GP's ;-) On the other hand there are also those who got CR/CR.
