The good news is that I sorta like it and it's growing on me. Peals off easy if I get tired of it...your thoughts??



I like the stripes to carry thru the bumpers, just looks odd suddenly stopping. However, i like the concept in general.

yeah, me too. MUCH easier to do with paint. with a sticker, it is HARD to get to look right following those lines as it starts to warp pretty bad. we tried and couldn't get it to look right so went with that...

That actually looks way better than I thought! I actually like how it stops pre bumpers. Looks awesome!

Thanks! Yeah, not terrible. I hope it adds 2-3 hp. :-)

While I'm not a big fan of the stripe on the hood - I do really like the strip on the rear end. And do like that it stops at the bumper. Again, beauty is always in the eye of the beholder. For me, looks great.
