I think that looks smart like that, especially the front.

Blue car and White stripes or vica versa looks good on a Fiesta or Focus RS and definitely on a GT40/GT. It looks allright on an white Fiat Arbath. But any other car I'm not sure about. Not so sure about stripes on Skodas, but it it may grow on me.

Just to add my 2p, I think if your the type of person to entertain the stripes then you should go for it........

I am more of a less is more person so for me I think they look OTT but if you want your car to stand out in the crowd and your mods to be noticed then I would go for it........

Yep, damn straight. I like those. Dunno about the octavia bit on the roof.

Gonna look like a photo negative if I get them done.

I've seen a Suzuki swift, older shape in blue with huge white stripes on it ...

[Blanes]

Yep stripes are good:

But depends on the racing pedigree/colours.

Fiestas and RS's look okay with stripes because the the Ford Racing Heritage. Same as Fiat Abarths.

Whereas my neighbours dodgy corsa 1.2 doesnt quite hit the mark....

[Makefish]

I love 'em

[Makefish]

.... or something a little more subtle...

Racing stripes on a Skoda? I'm sorry but its not a mustang...

[Guest westallc]

sorry but they look horrid on that mk2 :rotz: each to there own:thumbup:

[Jim H]

vRS side stipes look OK on a Furby or Octavia, as seen on oilburningnut's Furby SE.

I agree, full bonet stripes, like the above, don't work on an Octy.

@ Makefish - I like both of those stripes on your old motor Steve...........especially the matt black ones, fair play...........

Are you sure or are you referring to your number plates?

Wonder where you got the idea for those from...............:P
