Once you get your sportlines on, it will definately complete your car. Good job with the stipes too. I want your eyelids in red!! gimme gimme gimme!!!

But you have another non-supporter of the de-winged look right here. Makes the rear end look nakey

I think it does look good. As everybody else said... shorter antenna & it will look even better. I like the look where the stripes go all the way down the rear bumper.. but that's me. Looks good though!

It really isn't that hard. You just put the strip on and get all of the bubbles out and then use the body line around the License Plate hole as a guide, running your finger along it while you cut the stripe. Anyway it was easier than it sound or looks.

i dont think it would have looked right with the stripes down the back, the lisends plate area would have been too big and taken too much area through the stripe. you would have only been able to put part of a stripe through there

you should paint the bowtie black, or silver like the stripe.
p.s. black cobalts are the best.

oh nevermind... i see now that you did. sweet

Carlos, the stripes look great! When you were over last week it was the first time I had seen a Balt w/out a wing and I thought it looked really good. The stripes are kick ass though man!!!

We need to get you in the group with Streak and the rest. =)
