Need Pics of cars w/stripes

Playing with the idea of painting my car in black with a pair of stripes up the center of the body. Having a hard time picturing it though. Please post pics of any 911's, in any color that have stripes either of equal width, or one wide & another thin, etc.. TIA. -John

Try it with vinyl first. If you don't like it, it will peel right off.

I agree. I spent the night searching online. Looking like I may stay with a solid color after all. Nothing is really appealing to me yet.

and the more narrow dual stripes seem to fit the early cars the most. That or a single thats about the same width

Bottom pic is the best, IMHO. Most classic look. Silver or black base is best.

I use vinyl for DE fun. I leave it on for three days at a time and it always peels right off with no damage to the paint.

I like this one

It has great intimidation power when it flashes in someone's rear view mirror.

I recommend going with vinyl, at least until you are sure of the color scheme

this might not be exactly what you had in mind, not exactly sure what was going through my mind either...

I was thinking of some modern graphics but old school competition stripes just seemed to fit. I did them in vinyl so they are reversable.
