  • Want your honest opinion

    I made some custom Vinyl stripes from an old Rally stripe kit I had laying around. I haven't decided if they look good or just look like a cheesy red-neck accessory. Let me know what you think............

    The digital camera has a hard time dealing with fine lines, so just ignore the fact that it looks like a Kindergartner cut out the letters! It actually is cut very precise and looks factory. Just can't decide if the design looks good on the truck. I might increase the width of the border pinstripes from 1/8" to about 1/2" or 3/4". That may help the look from a distance.

    I think it looks great - good job . It dresses it up and adds a bit of flair ... I hope to do some vinyl on the festiva some day .

        That's kinda what I was after........the '60s to '70s stripped-down Mopar look. Glad I didn't put "HEMI" on it!

          Nice job. Make the side stripes a little wider and it'll look perfect.

              Mopar Stripe

              x2 looks good, sparks up the box. How about a 70 Boss 302 stripe with the XL on the fender.Just a thought.
              An idea can turn to dust or magic, depending on the talent that rubs against it.

                Nice! I like the Mustang theme! Fits better than Mopar...................
                But I need a shaker scoop to make it all work........Maybe a hockey stick side stripe like on a '71 Stang? I'll have to do some thinkin'.

                This was just a "no cost" trial. I can remove it without harm and have enough to do it 3 or 4 more times. I have a "flaming 5.8" design that I'm thinking about adding under the "XL". Just don't want to get too corny and make it look like a Redneck version of a Honda with dragon decal on the side.
