Striping Test

MadDad · 01-30-2008, 10:02 AM

I picked a lovely day with 35-40 mph winds to work with huge paper "templates" for my striping concept----Please ignore the blue tape. I couldn't get a decent picture but the concept is to continue the stripes along the roof and tie in to the existing stripe on the hatch. The hatch stripe would be modified with a 4" space in the middle to permit the tie in of the roof stripes.
I like it when I see it but I don't want to get carried away either, sometimes less is more.

Do it... I like it too. Color is the key... and yep... not to get carried away.

Black stripes- to tie in with the existing Black and Cool Vanilla scheme

not bad at all i personally would do it like this and skip the roof stripes but you know me

I would also keep the hood vents CV and but change the vent in the scoop to black

I think its okay, but I dont think I would do it. The stripes look like an after thought with it tapering towards the back of the hood to avoid those rear vents plus the lines of the hood scoop. It might look cool with the scoop section painted solid to match the stripe color though.

I Like The Way You Have Laid It Out, Good Judgement But Maybe Now You Need To Put Something On The Scoop.
