Default Pinstriping?

Today at work, I was admiring my car through the drive-thru window like I always do and I started thinking about my pinstriping. I was thinking I should remove some of it, but I'm not sure. I think I might want to remove the work on the trunk lid, along with the little designs behind the back windows. I feel they might be a bit "girly", considering my mother had it all put on when she got the car. What do you guys think?

Default pinstripes

Personally, I like them. I have always been a fan of pinstripes on the proper car/truck. There is nothing "girly" about them unless they are pink or some other pastel color. If they are just a tape you can remove easily but if they are painted on; you may have a job in front of you ?
Car looks great !

I like it. It's not to over extravgant, yet it dresses the car up with out being too gaudy.

Are you crazy? That pinstriping makes your car unique! Sets it apart from the rest. Very classy, keep all of it...

I feel it gives your Monte a look all to it's own.
