Unique.. looks to be a nice compliment to the calipers. (Drawing attention to detail). Not my cup of tea however.
But, I have to comment on those AVS visors, they look out of place on an otherwise sharp looking Ho. WeatherTech dark would be a better blend.

i would have gone with the gray or silver stripe that way they stand out well but not too well.

thanks, and the rain guards, eh maybe.... but it looks fine to me and no reason to waste the money on another set when these dont have a problem with em and they still do what they are ment for.

I kinda like it actually even with the blue to match because isn't that the purpose? My ONLY suggestion and opinion (if I were to do it) is move them more toward the front of the car on the fender. And what's wrong with trying it with plasti-dip, especially if one has some left over, to try it first just to see? Truely is a lot of negativity on this site ever since I joined 8 years ago. It's different and creative, the point of this site. Ask for help and get ideas, CONSTRUCTIVE critisism, and opinions. Not to be slammed and slandered against. Our cars are slowly becoming old and most going to shit with little aftermarket help so let the few on here that care and try... do just that. Now back to the topic.

well on gagt i saw em more of in the center, idk i like it where its at. but who knows it might look better further up, only way i will know is if someone else does it.  and i agree with you. i tend to avoid getting into scuffs with a comment.

i actually tried this months ago to see what it would look like. only did the drivers side, but didnt care for it too much.
that was just some blackout tape i had left over, obviously not that good of a job. but i prefer the clean look better. yours looks great tho.

^ I think that might look better with a little bigger stripes. But the side mirrors, legit.

First off, that works on "that" car. I would have said no for sure until I saw the pics. I actually saw the post pop up a few times under new post and never even looked because I did not want to offend anyone...lol Well, I was wrong on this one bud, I think it looks dam good! The colour of the car and the rims you picked makes it work imo. Secondly, I was going to make a comment about the stripe paying homage to the Vette, but 52 there beat me to it.
