I remember that thread from a while back. I feel the question still remains.

The pics look good though. Where did you get your footwell lights?

Yes, it was me who asked opinions a few months ago. They're just something among a group of my friends and I. Any thoughts other than the stripes

Nice pics and those are hash marks like on the Corvette Grand Sport. Used for track identification on early identical Grand Sport vettes.

Nice, I'm liking the stripes, I don't know what is it about them but they look good IMHO although I would like to see the top portion of the stripes match the angle of the headlights, but overall good job and A+ for uniqueness.

I was thinking the same, it reminds me of a vette. My brother has the same stripes on his vette. I actually think theyre cool but thats me.

Well that's what our group was going for (grandsport). When I put 'em on I did several test fits and matching them to the headlight angle made them look pretty odd. The top side was really long and then the side of the car part was short, it just looked weird.

Thanks for the comments so far

nice pics, too bad your back window is open....ruins the look of the car at certain angles. but the pics are good and the car looks great. stripes look cool and unique.

Suggestion, try different angles. Almost all of your photos are of the driver front qtr. panel. Intentional or subliminal to show stripes repeatedly? I understand their meaning, but I'm on the fence in regards to the look. I think back to late 90s when everyone was putting 1 or 2 large stripes centered and off-centered down the entire length of the car.

LOL.

Nice pics but like already said, change up the angles... With lowering springs try more side shots (possibly lower to ground).

Additionally, I don't think the rear windows popped open looks good in pics, but overall nice car!
