I would order the stripes from one of our sponsors. This way if you don't like them you can easily remove them. If you paint them there is no turning back...

I agree, you shoudl just get the decal, cheap and easily removable... Also any color other than black would probably look out of place

black with your black rims... woul look kick ***... i also think you would be well off with the decals other than after a couple years and depending on the miles driven and the time spent outside.. .they could start to look kinda crappy... but depends on ur $$situation also..
