Fender Stripes
Thinking strongly about doing gray fender stripes like how sleepyalero did. I'll get a good picture and photoshop it, but from my preliminary 'shops it looks pretty damn good IMO. I'll put pictures in this post tonight.
OLD PIC, QUICK PHOTOSHOP
Thoughts?

i like the look of them if they aren't a drastic color difference, like neon green on a red car subtle would be cool

same with mustangs
it's an old race car identification thing, cars would have different color stripes so pit crews could ID what car is which more quickly on their way in to the pit
