no ideas yet....Just maybe to do a tribal pinstripe, or flames (might be gay)...i'm not sure...maybe just words written over and over as a pinstripe.

any ideas?

It's Kinda funny because the shop messed up my stripe on the back... my front Manta doesn't have a pinstripe but the rear does... It seriously bothers the hell out of me.... (Hence ONE of the reasons why it's going back the other reasons are purely personal)

That sucks that they didn't pinstripe the hood...I think flat black would look good on there...since you're taking it off, try it, you might like it.

If i were you, I would not put a rear stripe on. Your car looks real clean as is. I don't think the rear stripe flows well on our cars. That just my .02 cents.

Good luck with your decision.

i like where you're going with that. sommer eighty six in very fine writing, or even woven 8's making up the pin stripe.

i was thinking something with your sEs Logo. maybe a normal pinstripe with the logo in the middle!! or a ghost pinstripe... idk

ok its a really bad photoshop but you can get the idea of the stripe in your car...

Thanks soulpower and Hiaalu.....that actually looks better than I thought because of the berger panel. I like the SES in the pinstripe as well......hhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmm.

Maybe I'll pinstripe the front with SES SES SES SES SES, I dont know.
