Default Which Vinyl?

Heya everyone. Got a weird question for all of you. So, I run a Pearl 2000 SC and was torn between these two vinyl setups in deep blue. Call it tacky but I love these. Which one is best in all your minds?

I don't think either would look very good on an SC. The lines on the SC are too smooth to disturb with vinyls.

i need a third option of none.

unless you wrap your whole car in vinyl, which only works just like the saying "looks good from far, but far from good" i say stay away from all that noise

this isnt 2001 and the raving era of the fast and the furious

plus white is such a nice color. why blemish it? i may be a bit partial though

i personally like vinyl, but none like the ones you chose. Post a picture of your car and maybe that will help us all help you choose some vinyl. Honestly though cars can only pull of vinyl if the exterior of it is very well and aggressively styled. I would say go custom vinyl though. That way you can really make something that you like.



Call me crazy.......but that ish is tight!!
