funny, just read the thread about removing pinstripes....
I was just thinking of adding a pinstripe - my LS is so dark green/black (Midnight Pine), that I thought a pinstripe would look good
I was contemplating pair of gold pinstripes --- car has tan interior, but silver BBS wheels. perhaps silver pinstripes?
obviously I don't see many LS around.
can someone post or email me a photo of where the pinstripe is applied to the car?
I like mine also; it was installed new(not by me) and I bought the car this year used with 5000 miles on it. It looks good on a white 2005 LS 430. I had it also on my 1998 black LS 400 and liked the look.
Pinstripes don't look good on any car, I think. They are a throwback to really really old cars from decades ago. They rank up there with chintzy chrome hubcaps from Walmart and all those crappy add-on accessories you find in the JC Whitney catalog. Lexuses and many other cars today have such clean lines, expensive and uncluttered looks, pinstripes only foul it up no matter what color the car or the stripes are. They scream "cheap" to me. Then again if you like them it's you're right to have them.
