Default Laying the GS Hash stripes down

If i was to purchase some here in the near future, is there a template on here somewhere or a writeup on the proper location to place them? Thanks in advance!

Something along the lines of driverside fender on a Blue 96 C4 only, heard they wont stick on any other fenders. Just kidding bud, to each his own. I think it looks good but some purists don't like them.

one of my friends has it on his SS...




Also, Who really cares if you have off color "GS" stripes.. not really a GS stripe if it isn't really red if you cared that much in the first place.

I think the wheels set off your car wonderfully, no need for the extra black accents. Anymore pics of the car?

Afterthoughts Auto has them (sponsor!) Here's a link, it's something I'm considering for my silver car... I think they'd look good on yours too...
