Unbelieveable. Anyone that ever thinks about getting stripes should only look at your before and after photos. Much improved. From a far distance, the all red viper just looks like a red sports car. But with the stripes, everyone within a 1/2 mi. will know there is a bad @ss viper coming. Job well done.

Re: I\'ve been striped...whatcha think?

Is it vinyl ? or painted ? Nonetheless stripes make it look faster !

It looks good!

I'm partial to stripes. Mine is white/blue stripes. I've been wanting to stripe my hardtop but I don't want to paint it.

All props to you *****, and Tony the moderator, you gave me the idea to go black on red. Very happy with it. :2tu:

Thanks everybody!

Re: I\'ve been striped...whatcha think?

very nice. but i see you are in ny and wasnt it hard to do in this cold weather. i have stripes too for my red 97 gts but figured it should be done when warmer out. did you do it yourself and IT LOOKS SICK. also, it may just be the picture but i have to comment since it looks a bit off tho, the sstripe on the passenger side where the hood meets the front fascia looks off a fraction of an inch. maybe the angle but if it was off, that would bother me. awesome though brother.

Re: I\'ve been striped...whatcha think?

It was done professionally in a heated shop of course..I am incapable of doing it. Nothing is crooked, it's just the angle. My hood is slightly lower than my front fascia intentionally, to close up the infamous hood gap above the fenders that looks like [******]. A professional took almost 8 hours to do it, trust me it's done as well as can be for vinyl. I wouldn't have accepted it any other way.

Re: I\'ve been striped...whatcha think?

Mine is also red (00 acr). I bought the black stripe kit home a month now and I was still undecided. Your pictures set it straight for me. Thank you thank you!

Anybody knows a good shop doing this in Bay Area?

I have to say that the stripes look much much MUCH better NOT going thru' the NACA duct. Since they frame the NACA duct, it seems to really highlight the hood. Great job.

I am not big on stripes but your car looks naked in the before shot. The stripe and color combo really finished the car off nicely. Very tastefully done.

Re: I\'ve been striped...whatcha think?

Huge difference!!! Looks great. GTS's were just made for stripes, no doubt. Fits the body style wonderfully. :usa:
