Peel it off, its a sticker, and it makes the car look cheap. just my 2c.

white pinstripe that runs along the sides

Love the color, the first one to tempt me beyond my yellow and the pinstripe is horrid. Did the dealer do that?

nice darker color blue, i still like my phantom blue mica better... but that might just be because i've got a couple more years to pay it off... either way.. i'd check into getting rid of the pinstripe and tinting the windows out the wazzoo, but that's just my thoughts

Not sure if its the lighting, but it looks kinda dull. I'm sure its a beautiful color, but need to find reasons to like my WB more...

btw, if it is a sticker and not painted (hope not) after you peel it off, use bug/tar remover to clean the rest of the sticky off, or lighter fluid, then wash and wax

The pinstripes were already on! I'll see if i can peel them off. I am however going to install an antenna so I can put a tennis ball on it! Thanks for the input folks....


Update....

Got the pinstripes off in like 10 minutes they just peeled and were kinda stretchy like electrical tape. Only left residue on one small section which i got off. Thanks guys for helping me keep from lookin' cheap! I like it much better without the stripes. I can't figure out what the hell they put them there for? I'll post some better pics tomorrow on a different site so folks don't have a problem seeing them.

ooooo... more pictures please.

I think you got the package combo I like, basically Stormy blue with Sand leather, except you got extra SAT radio there...

Where are you located? How much did you pay? so far the only stormy blue I see in SoCal are sports package.
