Default Red Blackbird Wingtips

Ive been meaning to post these for awhile. They are the new blackbird spoiler stripes from fourthcircledesigns. These are the first pinstripe set on a car. I think they look really good with the rest of my car. My car was a little dirty in these pics and you can see the nose is chipped oh well i guess its what comes with owning a 16 year old car. But it will be getting painted soon but first its getting lloyd elliot h/c/i .

Might be something I can plasti-dip to try first. Gf is trying to talk me out of it.
I do think that $30 is a bit much though...

My wife hates them as well. Everybody else ive talked to likes em. As far as price i can say there is alot of vinyl there but i dont buy vinyl unless its from fourth circle so i dunno. I got a good deal on mine though. I saw the checkered set and emailed him and told him i was interested in a pinstripe set and told him how i thought he should make em. So i ended up modeling this set and a solid set for the website which im sure you saw lol.
