Default Single Fat Stripe? Pics

Is anyone running a single rally style stripe? Maybe like 15" wide or whatever.

Think the back part of the stinger stripe except over the whole car and bumpers.

Does anyone have pictures of this? I can't find any. Not sure what it would be called or what to look for.

Twitch, are you wanting something like what came on the '60's model Camaro's and such that has just a solid think line/strip that was the same size from the nose to the tail? If so, I haven't seen to many that has that type strip or I have and just haven't paid it much attention.

Me personally, I wouldn't put the strip on the bumpers cause then they would look like you stole some off a Mustang and slapped on your car. I would only run the strip from the top part of the bumper where the emblem is and fold it under where the top part of the grille goes to the hood and not on the roof, looks tacky as hell, then to the trunk and spoiler and wrap it under the trunk lid right above the tailight panel. Thats just my thoughts though.

^ Lol. I wasn't trying to make you change your mind, I was just stating my thoughts about it. And I also posted in your other thread about the tailight panel, etc., etc.

^ Twitch, if someone does have it, then I haven't seen it on here or I can't place the car/cars that have it done. I think I have seen a black car with it done. May wanna try photoshopping it.

Stripes on the bumpers look horrible, almost as bad as stripes on the roof.

That car posted up above looks sick.

IMO stripes make it easy to make a car look "cheap" and domestic ricer.

I did it to two of my 69 camaros to "mock" the Baldwin Motion stripe but without the wrap around of rear. I got tired of everyone having same exact stripes...blah blah blah...got a lot of compliments,i know your car is different bodystyle but i say do it...originality rules

Stripes done correctly can look good, such as how it was done on the LE Camaro's



But then there are some awful ones, such as those thin tape looking things people put down the middle of a camaro or all the way down the back...those look awful.
