Striping Opinion

Ok. We bought our S3 and it was White with a Tan top. We added red racing stripes and door stripes with the Roush logo in them which match the red stripe in our seats and the red flames on the bottom of the chrome bumper letters. We have yet to see another Roush with door stripes so now we are considering taking ours off. Should we remove them?

I liked your car a lot at the beach but IMHO it would look a lot cleaner without the stripe on the door. Give the car a diff look & change the color of the race stripes. Im going to do something big to my car after Mustang Week.

Stripes

I think the stripes look fine. I also striped my car. But I did not put on door bottoms. I did consider it tho the very same idea you have for yours. I give you TWO THUMBS UP for making it all yours. Be different!!!!!!

I think the lower stripes look like what a dealer puts on a car that that they can't sell to jazz it up...I Do like the hood stipes though... I say lose the lower stripes. jim

Remove the door strip's in my opinion, leave the Hood strip's, though I kinda like the door strip's too, what's it look like with the top up?

It's kinda got the Z24 look

Just kidding on the 2nd comet

I like the look without the door stripes a little more than with. It's cleaner looking. You know what would look real cool? Magnetic flames from Pep Boys!

Only about 5-10% of all the Roush vehicles 99-2004 had tan interiors or tops... So not to many had that color combo, jim

I think it looks great. But I might be a little biased.

If YOU like it, keep it. If YOU don't like it, change it.
