To Stripe or not to Stripe? Hmmm

Unlight · 6 Jul 2006 at 12:40

Hey guys, Just got my lovely Fiesta ST this week and enjoying it a lot.

When I got it, it came with none of the additional stripes (over the top or side)

Im thinking about adding side stripes, but I cant make up my mind. Which do you think looks better? Mine is the same colour as this one by the way!

OR

Just copy and paste the link that the link links to and the photos work.

is the fiesta the one with the fat double stripes right up the bonnet and over the roof? If so get 'em applied now.

I'm not one for adding bonus stripes normally but foprds with fat double stripes just looks right somehow.

If its blue (I can't see any pics) then go for it. (blue car with white stripes imo looks very nice indeed)

Edit I see the pictures now. (damn the slow connection at work)

I would go for the two white stripes up the car.

Unlight · 6 Jul 2006 at 13:18

Slightly worse pictures now applied.

Im not too keen on getting the over the top stripes fitted, as Im quite worried that it'll attract too much of the wrong attention...

Better with the stripes

SiHH · 6 Jul 2006 at 13:44

Stripes = cack.

Dont do it, very chav.

andi · 6 Jul 2006 at 13:48

Side stripes = yes please.

Unlight · 6 Jul 2006 at 13:53

Def not going for over the top.

So, general concensus is go for the sides then?

William · 6 Jul 2006 at 13:54

Sides maybe. I wouldn't go over the top. Top stripes are reserved exclusively for Mustangs and Vipers and other muscle cars.

Stripes are supposed to mean:

"I have enough litres under this bonnet to drain a swimmingpool in 10 seconds flat"

Not.

"Hear my 2.0 whine"

Violent-J · 6 Jul 2006 at 14:00

No they're not, They come like that as standard, I would defo get the whole bonnet/roof stripes on, it suits the car. Chav? Hardly.

Skiddley · 6 Jul 2006 at 14:01

Unless it's a worthy car, stripes are ghey. And I'm talking about the likes of Ford GT's, not Fiestas.

They only come standard on low end cars as there is a market for chav-mobiles, not because it looks good or the car is worthy.

Unlight · 6 Jul 2006 at 14:03

Theres a better picture with just the sides. How does that look?

Skiddley · 6 Jul 2006 at 14:04

Side stripes look ok - at least they are understated.
