Default Re: New fender strakes

Grumps..................that looks kick butt
The day light and the color change turned them into a classy design/style which complements the car.
Now you need to put red running lights under it and those hydraulic shocks so you can jump up and down...
ah ya, maybe next lifetime?
I had wanted to cut actual vent for mine but even I knew it was asking way too much of the hubby.
Hypr now that there's some good feedback and good pictures keep at it despite the insanity of coming back for more.
OK ......back to beating on ya!
Next find some way to make the black parts appear as if they really are vents. Darker on the inside (nearest the car) would be a start, also anyway to add actual mesh or the texture of it where it wouldn't look cheesy? Or should I say so it wouldn't look like it was designed by Mattel. When I say mesh I mean the screen stuff that you see on real side vents. Is there some way to make the final piece have a slot where the screen is slid into at the end of production?
Last this is too much work if your only going to make/market to the Crossfire crowd. Not enough of them. How could your design be adapted to other sports cars? Cars that had larger production numbers.
