Looks cool to me. There is nothing wrong with being a little different. Post up a picture with the whole side of the car visible.

Agree... I'd need to see more before posting an opinion. Post some pictures of the whole car.

Corvette chevrons. Different, though not sure I'm sold on the idea.

Agreed, that's a Corvette thing. Porsche's stripes have been along the bottom of the doors.

I like them! Those stripes are not exclusive to Chevy autos. You will also find them on vintage AC Cobra's and other cars of the like.

I saw you driving around Addison near RUF last week, I had no problem recognizing your Box with those stripes, that being said, the stripes just didn't seem to go with the rest of car. But what really matters is if you like it, who cares what I or anybody thinks. I just like the fact that you are trying something different.

Looks like you can easily peel them off w/ no damage done. A matter of taste, I guess. Not mine, though.
