HI Guys,

 

Mind wondered while designing a few advertisements today and was playing with a few ideas...

 

Whats your opinions on racing stripes? (subtle ones / Black on black)

Something that I've fancied having done to mine for ages, although I'm going to eventually go for something off to the one side

Im undecided yet but as its a small job i might just give it a go and remove them if i don't like them! I was thinking of option 2 just on the PAX side. Black would look nice on your VXR :)

do it

but be carefull where the stripes cross across the bonnet vents

it can look like the stripes are crooked

there are a couple of funny angles in there can can make it look wrong

don't be mean

at least we drive vx's and not loti which makes us slightly more individual than those other twats who drive similar cars that cost a lot more money

but do a very similar thing .
