It looks like he's got the eBay Motorsports Twin Turbo HD Pinstripes kit. I've been thinking about getting one for my car too.

I would've done the 3m double-sided heavy duty tape.
At least it would've also served as door ding protectors.
The thicker, the better
But DON'T peel off the outer layer!

Are these go-faster stripes? If I put them on my Corolla, will it make it go faster than Civics with
vtec badges?
Does it matter if they are applied with a ruler instead of a free (shaky) hand?
