I myself actually like those stripes... reminds of a viper because your your color scheme. I love it.

 

I was thinking that the front around the "mouth" looks more like an old Cobra.

 

Day pics.

Next up are eyelids, some form of springs..not sure which way to go next and a front lip.

Then, finally, the turbo kit I've been saving for.

 

i think this is the nicest striped 8 i've seen! i really like the silver and blue. btw which turbo are you looking to get?

 

Just the GReddy kit. I'm not interested in HUGE power. Better low/mid range with a bit of extra up top and I'm a happy man.

The stripes look great overall!

Is the back right messed up on the trunk?

The area behind the license plate looks a little odd to me, but other then that good job!

 

The only flaw in the entire setup is the passenger side where it comes down over the trunk. There are a few creases, if they don't work themselves out over the next few days I'm going to just replace that piece.

But that area is such a bitch to do when trying to keep the vinyl straight I'm not in a hurry to redo it. Those pieces have to be shrunk and streched in many places, many times to flow right over all the curves. It may not look like a difficult area but go try it, the vinyl wants to change directions 3 times.

 

Looks nice except for that crease by the trunk lid. It's very conspicuous (to me at least).

I like the color combo too.

 

Yea it is noticeable. But I have plenty of material left to redo that. So far it's worked itself most of the way out from being in the sun.

 

Oh I fully believe it would be a bitch to do, I am not doubting that. I was just curious if it was flawed or if I was seeing things.

 

Very well done, and the color scheme looks great.


But I always think stripes detract from the curves/line/rotary V on the hood.

 

i normally dont like racing stripes but your car has changed that its very sharp.gg

looks like real mazda race car or pace car for lugna seca.

 

I'm not digging it....again..i've never been a fan of racing stripes....they remind me of those cheap muscle cars..like old camero or something from 80's...... I rather have some crazy graphics on the sides than the stripes.. but hey..... if you think it looks good ...then it all that matters , right? haha

 

Now post a pic with you and your car in the Hawt guys thread!!

Looks nice by the way.

 

Can I go for a ride in your jet?

 

I like the stripes... I hate them on MOST cars and never thought they would look good on an 8, but damn... Perfect size in my opinion!

 

nice!! i have a Titanium Grey...what color stripes do yall think would look good?

 

Not bad. Not my cup of tea, but not bad at all...

 

Nice.

 

I never thought I'd like strips on an 8, but hey I love yours, & I actually think grey looks way better than the white strips I have seen on this board.

 

hey goat nice look...does remind me of the viper scheme...I can't wait to see them in person. One question - I'm pretty sure you guys had to remove the plate to place the stripes back there - why do you keep that ugly frame from your dealership?

 

I always liked the look of this striped setup...

 

Get some strakes to match with the stripes.

 

Not my thing, but it does look good on ur car. now fix up that crease and do some suspension work and your good to go.
