pinstripe

I played around with a two-tone stripe but never did anthing with it. It's yours if you want it.

I saw one on the dealers TRAC car in Merritt Island, FL. It looked like the one depicted by GT except that it was half way between the door handles and the window sills. They had a double thin strip. It looked very nice. I plan on getting the same for my car whenever it arrives.

 

As an art student... I would have to say that I think adding a line like that would take away from the appeal of the car.

 

Almost every single mod I've seen proposed on this board makes the car look worse. I can only conclude that the Japanese have much better taste than the Americans (at least to European eyes ).

 

That isn't true of course - some of the accessories available on the Japanese Prius website are truly bizarre. But they have the restraint to not offer most of them to the rest of the world.

 

Well, yes, but they also licked the door handles to tell them apart. ukeright:

I have found the left rear window is a good size for a college logo cling (removable), and I never look out of that window anyway. It would fit the task you seek of ruling out duplicates (unless they went to your college).

 

Don't ask me to explain why, but I'm thinking about putting some plaid on my white '04. I need to play with some different ideas, but I can envision a Victorian plaid (deep burgundy and gold) band on the side.

I have a salsa red #9, I had a pin stripe, in silver, put on it. It goes under the side windows. It curves up on the side back window toward the roof stopping where the back side door opens. Looks great. It isn't like the Tideland #9 picture at all.

 

If you want something neat, go for a carbon fiber hood
that way... you can make the excuse of trying to make your car lighter for increased mpg

 

I had my car pinstriped yesterday. The stripes are bright red. The larger is about 1/8 inch and the smaller about 3/16 inches. I went to a local bodyshop and they referred me to an individual who works out of his car. The cost was $80. I have been told that the decal type of pinstriping tends to curl up after time and also traps car wax.

 

Yes, I just did it. Easy. Wash the car- and I followed the slight body line just above the door handle. Total cost $4. Total time 35 minutes. I like it. You can see the pics. You can search "Reba" in pictures for the after pics.
