I like Toejam's view of the whole thing...almost like, if you aren't part of the solution, you're part of the problem

Well, Silver00Spike, aren't you glad you asked?

My dad left town one time, a friend and I put racing stripes on his '65 VW Beetle. Used duct tape. Actually, the duct tape was dark blue, and the car was light blue, so - well - aw forget it -

Thumbs down

I think its a bad idea ...1st when you do stuff like that to your car don't you make yourself a target for vandals?
2nd its a "Racing Stripe" meaning you race and your car is fast .. ok maybe not fast which brings me to ...
3rd if you Have to do that because You like it .. do it after you car IS FAST! otherwise(it's rice) ....why waist the time and money?.

ok. thanks for your opinions.. I think. I want to see a photosohop of this on an sc. I dont see racing stripes as a rice mod, I avent seen it on any honda. I see it on older musclecars, and today's dodge viper. If you remove the mufflers form the sc, and add b;ack paint with silver stripes, would that seem so ricy? The front end of the sc has a touch of the Viper's style so I thought about stripes. I don't have my sc yet, its all just planning. To me, racing stripes represent msucle, if it means rice to you then well, ok.
