hey guys, need some imput here. iv seen some xfires with the stripes on the sides of there car at the bottom. i like it alot and kinda want to do it. is it a vinyl sticker or is it painted on? and should i do it or not? noone around where i live has it on theirs and i like to be different.
Thanks!

 

those are called slasher stripes and can be ordered from CCICC. I made mine from vinyl lens tape, against the white they are solid yellow, and outlined them in black 1/4" pinstripe

 

thanks man. i checked and you have to pay to join the club before you can buy stuff off there so i may just do it myself. hopefuly it wont be too hard to do

 

Don't forget the fuzzy dice, Pep Boys seats, and fart-can exhaust to complete the customization.

 

Here are some of the best out there.

Gee the Cost is no more that 4 starbucks in the morning? Not that bad...seen worst, like Costco. Much higher there just to shop.

 

I noticed that the photos are all the same and photoshopped with color changes. Curious question, though, is why the driver's side tire actually abuts and touches the wheel well for these photos. They do look good though.

 

Finally did them. i think it looks good. what you guys think?

 

looks good to me! gj man. How did you keep the angle across the bend?

 

You just have to take your time lining it up. i used a straight edge to flatten it out and make sure its smooth in the bends. it was alot easier than i was expecting. only took about 45mins to do both sides

 

What tape did you use? what was the final cost?

 

Duck tape and electrical tape baby!!!

 

I used a 2 inch wide vinyl tape from a site a found on the internet. its bonds to the paint after about a day...*and wont eat your paint off like duct tape would*...its about $9.50 after shipping and handling...and to do the outline i used 1/4 inch black vinyl tape that you can get from auto zone. it looks and feels like something that you would get from the dealer. all said and done it ran me about $15. not bad for something so small that makes such a big impact on the look of your car. hope that helps! here is the link to the site...you'll find that they have tons of colors.

Colored Vinyl Marking Tape

 

Yeah when I read ductape, I was like.... errrr seems a bit ghetto to me but people find extra ordinary ways to do extraordinary things!

 

haha i know exactly what you mean. but i think silver outlined in red would look good on the black. it would be a head turner

 

For sure! maybe I will try it.... for 15$ I could always take it off eh?
