New stripes.

So I have mocked up a set of stripes and I am curious what people think.. they are 4 inches apart and 6 inches wide. I will keep the white but get it in vinyl instead of the tape that I have now.

Jason, looks good but would look better if the stripes were continued all the way down both front and back. I'm not a fan of them with the roof racks though. Also don't like them in combination with the pinstripe. Of course that is all my own personal preference

the pin stripes will be removed before i do the final stripe and It will continue down the front and the back I just didnt feel like going all the way down. I also tried not having the stripes on the roof and it looks funny cause you can see the roof on these.

You definitely need them on the roof I just think stripes look better without the rails. Now get them stripes done before Saturday

I know this is off the subject, but is there anyone with a real cowl hood in production for the HHR? The stripes are a very good idea to set off the red. What about ghost flames set in the stripes?

Guess i'm just a sucker for ghost flames. They look good either way. I wish I could paint.

Id go a hair wider with the sripes..will give the vehicle more "attitude"...maybe loose the side striping and go with a 1/4 ince stripe outside the wide stripes..maybe even a graphic cut design for the 1/4 inch(ud only notice up close) like a tribal or barbed wire or sumthin..just a thought...lookin good.....
