Racing Stripes....YES or NO??

[tomdbomb61_djtj]

got it done on my mrs car, looks really good.

 

[GarethM]

i like them imo id keep them on

 

[berlin]

I say keep them. If it was a car that didn't have the power to back up having stripes, then yeah take them off. But seeing as it does, I'd leave them.

 

[Neil G]

I'm not a great fan of any graphics or stripes on cars so I would take them off myself

Just personal preference though....it does have the grunt and history to back it up

 

[kully]

i got some on my cup .............my choice :rasp: i like them

 

[harrop]

Theyre cool,

Theyre cool on cars that are meant to have them, Cups, minis, ford GTs etc but look gash on saxos

 

[richlawson]

they look really good on that blue

keep them (untill you go through a car wash) lol

 

[Andy]

Keep them.

It's heritage. People who take the mick are just ignorant. Looks a bit special with them on.

 

[Justin]

Racing blue looks wrong without them, looks weird.. i agree that it attracts more attention though, which i guess cant be avoided.. keep them on

 

[Peperami]

Keep them on, they look awesome!

 

[darren_rallye]

I think they are cool, but understand what you're saying about the stress of other ppl assuming you're a chav.

I've never had a worry about the stripes on my Rallye, although they are cooler

 

[Peperami]

Lol, driving a clio as a bloke, everyone assumes you're gay anyway.

 

[S77CCP]

I think there ace (but then i would). If the stripes were straight down the middle and about 15cm wide then they would be dead 'chavy'. They do attract attention but usually from people who know their cars which is no bad thing.

 

[Alex_225]

Thats why I have a Megane 225 hahahaha

 

[girl182]

so r u gonna keep them or lose them?

 

[Dave]

Remember if you choose to take them off in a few years of bright sunlight you'll end up with dark stripes over your car....nice.

Dan

EXACTLY. Remove IMHO.

 

[rich_84]

I'd say keep them (only slightly biased)! I haven't really thought about un-wanted attention due to the stripes - after all we're driving clio's in a bright blue with dual exhausts and bodykit anyway, so the stripes don't make a huge amount of difference. I haven't had anyone do anything to mine yet (touch wood), and I would seriously question if it would be because of the stripes if it does ever happen.

Go for what you feel like....(and keep them!).

 

[W5 CUP]

keep the strips.i love them,going to put them on mine soon..

 

[Tim(e)]

Be different.......go Polka dot......current trends suggest this will be the next big Max power mod....

 

[Jamie _Swales]

i had them on mine for adges, but i got sick of people saying they look'chav' and 'boy racer' and 'do they make it go faster?'

Also useto get random people chatting s**t about them

Removed them a few weeks ago

 

[polarbert]

I would keep them on. Can a mod make this a polled thread to make the results a bit clearer for the guy who started it?

 

[john1.2pearl]

:hail:

They do look good I think

 

[Gaz_]

thumbs up from me, i'd have them on mine (i'm not a chav) lol

 

[Danith]

[edgerfs]

Big no, as the car gets older as well it will just make it look amateurish.

 

[JACKO CUP 172!]

[Adamhodg]

[Baby D]

[Martin]

I think they look guid

 

[Nick_R182]

[rory182]

[Anim@l]

Racing stripes. Yes or No?

Not too sure really. Can look good. Depends on colour.

 

[S77CCP]

well excusez moi monsieur collins dictionary!

 

[Thomss]

I like that colour with!

 

[DynamiqueDebz]

I think it is all down to individual preference. I personally like the look of the one Deb182 has without the stripes.
