I like it better than the Dragon Sti. To each is their own and I like it. It's not cookie cutter and it's original.

I think it looks good. Even if you are not into stripes you have to give it to the man for a job well done.

this reminds me of the riced out honda Accords from 1997. No matter what color they all had yellow stripes and huge powered by stickers on them. Should have done black or something less intrusive like a darker blue or silver. But to each his own.

I really like the stripe, that's exactly the type of stripe I've been thinking of

my wife thought the puppy was cute [she didn't even notice the stripe]

I like it, I agree with 3rd though, a ghost stripe would have been awesome, but this is cool too.

I think you should've gotten with glilly and used vinyl instead.... but if you like it, then i guess it's ok for it to be permanent.

I like the strip and love the subbie, however IMO I don't think the two go together. Maybe it because I never seen it before, maybe.

I kind of like that. The colors mix good. It is enough to stick out but it doesn't scream "OMG, LOOK AT ME!"

Nice job, Jeremy, specially for a d-i-y -paint- mod. I'd be freakin' trying to paint my car myself.

oh!, and :woot!: that you apparently have internet access again!

I like the offset stripe look. I'm not a big fan of the yellow per say, but it's not bad either. I've thought about putting a 10" wide black one on the right hand side of the car, but only offset by about 16-20". Black on a CGM car would look hot, IMO. Wife has most decidedly said NO as long as she is driving it as well.

Personally, I would have gone the non-permanent route as it's cheaper in the long run, but to each their own.

For other stripe ideas, I also like the subtle 'twin' stripes you see on like BMW's that run diagonally across the fender, just from the hood-gap to the wheel-well.

But then again, that'd be copying something else and not original.
