I have a vic red ss/sc. De winged. This weekend.... Mike(Mkulrey13) Dana (dayta) And myself are painting my stock rims gloss black with a red pinstripe around the outside. Also, we are painting my front lip. I think the stripes look good!

i went ahead and put a 4 inch gap instead the reccomended two and like it alot better. ill put up more pics later. also mad props to people who put on vinyl. this was a major learning expeirence but i finally got the hang of it and feel really comfortable doing it. hey maybe i can get a job doing it. lol

Dammit, I want stripes. I love stripes on cars. (the style you guys have) Thing is I ain't paying $300 for a few thin pieces of plastic from GM. WTF! Anyone know where I can find these stripes cheaper? And I want the ones made for the cobalt like you guys have. Besides I don't have much of a choice. The guy I'm getting a wing from on here has them.
