If anybody was wondering on how stripes would look on their Alabaster here are some pics on how mine came out. Bigger pics in my gallery.

 

I like...Do they match the silver trim? They appear a little darker in the pics. BTW great looking shift ****.

 

Yeah they are a bit darker than the grey trim on car but not that much, in the light they contrast pretty good. thanks on the ****, i see you have almost the same one, mine has the carbon on the underside as well.

 

Looks great.

Nice looking car... Not sure about the stripes on the Alabaster though.

 

Too bad you couldn't make it to Cars & Coffee this morning - we would have had two Crossfires with slasher stripes there!!! I love mine and think they look great on yours.

 

That's kinda hot man.

 

I think it looks great.

 

A Nice fairly low key Accent! (IMHO) SF

 

I wondered what they would look like on the alabaster, not bad.
But for some reason your hood looks odd to me.

 

I know bummer I wanted to go but had too much on my plate to do. Maybe next weekend or the following weekend I can try again.

haha yeah my hood would look better with it raisedi n the middle with two big air vents in it lol.

 

How do the Xfires fair at Cars and Coffee? I love watching the vids of people leaving, but I never see any affordable cars. It's always high dollar rich rides. Are the Xfires scoffed at, snubbed by snobs, or...?

 

It is not too elaborate. Very well done. I like.

 

We get a fair amount of notice and some positive comments/discussions from people. The videos you've seen have probably been pretty heavily edited to show off just the "high dollar rich rides" because this show has a little of everything. Sure, you'll always see some brand new Lamborghinis and Ferraris, but there are also antiques, hot rods, muscle cars, etc. If someone is putting together a video of European exotics though he's not likely to show the all original 1932 Chrysler Coupe, or any of the old Alfa Romeos, etc because they don't fit his definition of cool - if all he wants to show are the Lambos and Porsches.

I think the only snobby comment I've ever heard was from a women remarking about a group of Nissan 350Zs that pulled in saying that "this show isn't for daily drivers". She was stepping out of an early '60s Ferrari 250LWB Spyder. Truth is, anyone and anything is welcome at the show. Encouraged even.

 

I am interested to see some silver stripes on the SSB. Stripes the color of the wheels or strakes would be really nice. They would be subtle and match very nicely. I think the dark ones are a bit off and detract from the flow of the car. Have you thought about changing them out to see what the light silver would look like?

 

I have not looked for any silver but I may pick some up to see how it would look in contrast to the SSB. I will just place it over the others and hold it there to see how it would look.

 

did you lower your car? it looks high ?

 

I think it will look great! You may like it better too!

 

Yeah I lowered it, but these pics are before I lowered it. I dont have any after pics taken yet except the one a photographer took at cars and coffee, I will have more pics of my car lowered this week at the same spot so you can see the difference.

 

ok. i just saw in your sig that it was lowered but these pics sure didn't look it !
I had Alabaster coupe with eibachs and enjoyed everyone of the 70,000 miles i drove it ! But i wished i had trimmed the shocks or added konis. Maybe we'll meet drive it up north sometime. Malibu or Ventura.
