Looks AMAZING! love the handbrake touch. Did those seats mount on the stock sliders?

Hey guys,

Devoted Saturday to applying my racing stripes on the hood and trunk of my car. I personally like it, but let me know what you think. Thinking about the fender stripes but I wanted to have the hood and trunk stripes be kind of the center piece so I have currently decided against it. Anyhow check it out!

Too bad they don't all populate so you can see them all at once.

Check out the spyder emblem...it comes from the factory in a dull black. So I went ahead applied red to the top surface.

This thread is a great example of why the show & tell forum is my favorite on here. I wish there were more like it!

Incredible work on that 986! It really looks amazing! I really like the way it looks like one fully cohesive concept, instead of a few tacked-on catalog parts. I see a lot of that junk going down the road. (think hondas & jeeps...)

Mostly, I wanted to post up to compliment you on having the guts to do that stripe. I don't think I could do it, and when I was reading your post about a stripe before I actually saw the pics, I was thinking..."stripes? Really? On a Boxster? Uh...not so sure..." But your pics have seriously proven me wrong! They look fantastic!

And by the way, not only am I a stripe skeptic, but i'm also a a stripe hypocrate. My non-striped 986 S shares grarage space with my fully striped Mini Cooper S.

Oh - and one last BTW: If I haven't said already that I think the car looks great, it does. But I'm personally not a fan of the Spyder emblem, only because it isn't one. I've thought to myself about putting a Porsche emblem on the back in place of the Boxster emblem, but haven't done it yet. Nothing against the Box emblem, just wanting something different, so I can understand why you have Spyder on yours.
