  • racing stripes?

    ive been looking at all my different stripe options. i am more than likely going to stay with hockey sticks, but what i thought would be cool is like rally stripes but ones that dont go all the way down in the front (aka they stay on the hood and dont hit the front bumper).

    sort of like those, but not as long in the front. anyone ever seen em? i guess one option is to just use the bottom half of the stripe so it doesnt go down all the way.

      That is the same kit I have on my Camaro. I bought them from him back in '02 and I love them. Look at my site below to see. The only thing I did differently was I installed 1/4" Pinstriping outside of the stripes to make them look a bit more like "stock stripes".
      If you want, I can take a few more closeup pics and email them to you...Lemme know.

            Re: racing stripes?

            i want those, but NOT on the hood. just ending about 10-12 inches or so from the edge, might be a custom job

                  Why not just buy those, set them out on the car and take a razor blade to where you want then to end....may not be the best way, but if you're careful, it shouldn't look bad at all.

                      I like the ones like that, but they have checkered flags, theres this one site that makes them, it kinda looks like the 45th anniversarry graphics but fits non ram hoods

                        Personally, I would stay with the hockey sticks. On your car, they accentuate the natural lines of the car pretty well.

                            I wouldnt do stripes at all, the hockey sticks alone look sweet. The stripes would be too much IMHO. :)
