Not bad at all. The understated look has some appeal to it.

I agree. Also with four stripe of two different colors, it looks like the start of a rainbow...

I'd probably find another way to be different from the other V's in town. Slammed with different colored wheels and some cleared fogs may be a good start.

I do not care for the first pic stripes. The GS stripes, IMO, only look good ghosted. Like maybe matte black on raven or that gray on silver
