i would like to get some feedback on the vinyl stripe I added to my srt-6 crossfire.
I'm not sure I like it and it can easily be removed. I also added some thin silver
outlines around the tailights and headlights. My wife and son like it but I'm not
sure.

 

You asked, sorry, take it off..........T

 

Greg, in some of the photos it almost looks like something the factory might have done.
I'd like to make a suggestion. Why not apply a 1/4" red pin stripe where the silver meets the black? I think it would help finish it off.
MIYO.
Maybe something like this:

I would like to see it all in red

 

Ok....I would remove it.
Makes the car look like it sits "higher".
Reminds me of the look of my Fiero GT - a bit too mid '80s for the Crossfire IMO.

 

Mine is blk as well, I purchased chrome from a truck parts place, used on lower rocker panel on big trucks...placed along the sides, and like 1 of the others stated, made the car look taller, but it is your car, do with it as you please, but I wouldn't do it...good luck, Doc

 

It has that mid-80's Z-28 look........

 

I don't care for it. However, I'm wondering if it's the wrong color?

 

I did notice when I experimented with an aluminum rocker panel molding on my car, that by doing so, it seemed to "section" the car and make the body look less, "bulky" or thick. But on the other hand, it seemed to raise its "chopped" top. So I have to agree, it does tend to make the car look taller.

It looks better black if you feel the need to mod here,

 

man, i was going to suggest a red stripe too! everybody beat me to it. also, i like it, but not the silver around the tail lights.

 

Its an interesting look. It reminds me of the Daytona Pacecar Special Editions they would make of the C5 corvettes. I can picture a checkered flag image on the side.

 

Doesn't look bad.
Not what I would have on mine
but then I tried a bunch of different slasher stripes and in the end didn't keep any of them of my car.
If ya like it keep it. As I said it doesn't look bad either.

 

I don't think the two tone approach is a bad idea, but I would make the lower color match the windshield surround and vent strakes.

 

You asked, so here is an honest answer: I think it looks tacky, not befitting a refined, luxury, sports car. Looks more like something Detroit would do to spiff up a Pacer or something. Sometimes, stock really is enough, especially in a car that turns heads like this one does. Now, for the light trim, you have to ask why? Just like those who like to put that chrome tape around body lines, why? Why highlight something that should be transparent to the overall design of the vehicle.

If you like it though, keep it! Just giving an opinion since you asked.

 

Reminds me of the SS Monte Carlo... which looks bad, and this looks worse...

Peel It.

It might look okay if the color contrast wasn't so extreme. Maybe try it in a dark charcoal grey???

 

I agree. It'll come off on the weekend. Thanks for the input.

 

i dont think it looks bad as a whole. but the frames on the tail lights look completly out of place, they look almost white and i'd take em off personaly

 

I dont think the rocker panels look bad but i wouldn't do it to my car, the lines around the lights have to go.
By the way i noticed your from NY, where about?

 

Personally, I liked the bottom stripe. It sorta reminded me of the Dodge Daytona Turbo Z. However, I agree with the comment the red stripe would look nice too.

Just my $.02.
