So, last Friday, I gave in to my thoughts since Day 1 when I purchased the car (May of last year). I removed the hood stripes on Friday, the spoiler upper stripes on Saturday. I need to remove the spoiler lower stripes, and hatch stripes when I have some free time.

That looks much better, i think some dark colored stripes would have looked really good but the white didnt match anything but the ramair decal

That looks a lot better, congrats.

Not a fan of white on black. I do like satin black stripes on black cars, subtle and menacing.

That looks much better. I bought a crashed WS6 to swap to my Rx7 and it had those same rims. The car was sick but too far gone to bring back from the dead

Looks really good. Would be awesome with some satin black stripes.

Definitely plan on new stripes, but less pop. Matte black, dark blue, dark green, dark red. Dunno what I want yet. Here are my two purdy cars side by side (dirty though) - cell phone shots:

Looks way better. I'd leave it like it is!

Thank's again! I really need to finish the full removal. I'll try to do it at lunch today. Not much left to do, though.

Looks much better. Only black cars I'm a fan of white stripes on are 67-69 Camaro's.

Anyone have links to either eBay or a website that have flat black stripes available? Thanks!

Wow looks great! I vote no stripes, but if you have your mind set on striped id just go with matte, not into any of these crazy colors. But seriously keep it without the striped it looks soooo clean.
