Default hockey stripes!
I was a little bit uneasy about putting hockey stripes on my car but I think it turned out well. One thing to mention is that since these pictures have been taken I have re-painted the headlights to a black whistler mod (looks much better now). Enjoy!

I didn't do much research on it but I agree it would look better if the bottom of the stripe wasn't so close to the wheel well in the front

Is your car raised?

The front looks ridiculously high in those pictures.

You can move that stripe forward more so it isnt so close to the back part of the fender looks good it does need to be dropped now though!

Lowering would be great, but unfortunatley there are some places that I can go here that my exhaust already hits the ground (x pipe duals dumped at axel). If it ever becomes something other than a daily driver then it will be lowered.

Dude, paint behind the grille. Then lower it and it'll look even better.
