sorry man we went the wrong direction with the horse power joke... I looked at doing the hockey stick on my car and I guess that what I found was with the body lines on the side of the car they were not conducive with the hockey stick patterns they work best with the older cars that less curves and sweeps on /with the body lines

yea thats my number one concern, I'm real iffy on the stripes like yours to because they almost seem to narrow. But your orange and white definately is one of my favorite color combos on here. It sucks having a unique color like mine (Cappucino Frost Metallic) because with it changing you don't know what color you want to accent. I am almost leaning towards a light gray and striping it somehow.. :/

I do not think stripes are for the birds. Mine are custom painted old school SS stripes which have nothing to do with Nascar....:p

And to 04frostSS....here is a link to my album of the creation of my painted stripes. Maybe it can help you decide...

alright, I'm just puzzled on color. Having a pearl paint sucks it's nearly impossible to think of a good striping color.
