I had stripes on my typhoon when I got it.. it did grow on me but after a while I took them off and I think the car looks a hell of a lot better with out them, but each to his own. take a photo of your car and stick it in photoshop or paint and see what it looks like and go from there. that's how I decided to take mine off.

12/09/08 04:02 AM12/09/08 04:02 AM #9 IMO I like the stripes but its got to be the right choice of colour. I like the white stripes on the blue not the silver. I have had 2 thick stripes then pulled them off and had the mark II ones put on -thin and thick and now totally wanted to be different and have 2 thin stripes & a thick one in the middle just on the doors as shown below, like the mustangs Edited 12/09/08 04:03 AM12/09/08 04:03 AM by Miss_Aly
