I think it'd look much better w/o em.
I didn't even like racing stripes when they were in style.

You need your ownership rights removed from that car if you remove them.

It's a 35th SS, which means you should definitely keep them.


Hey guys, I have a CETA WS6 and I want to paint it green. What do you think?
