Default New Slasher Stripes

After much debate, I added them. I really like them and they are well complimented. Plus I think it helps other XF drivers identify me.

They look great! It's funny, but I get a lot of very positive comments about mine and I thought it was just such a subtle little thing to do. I'm actually a bit surprised that so many people notice and comment on them.

I think that is why they go so great with the car.. they are subtle and compliment the car rather than overwhelm and distract from her lines. I'll be joining the ranks of stripes soon!

Here are mine. I also debated this but when I saw the CF stripes I had to do it. Matches my MB air-box.

Dave, do you know they sell them in the CICCI store? You could have them on your car next week.

yeaa I got a few sets left over from woodward that I had made up. The ones on FP's car is a good pic. Also black/silver which I have on my car but no pics taken

Edit: I just ran out of the Carbonfiber look, only black/silver on hand. Will be having more made after Christmas.

Beaner;

Are the stripes all the same color or are different colors avaiable? My NA is a Black Roadster. Let me know what is cost if you still have any avaialble. TerryR had a set on his Roadster and that started me off wanting a set. InfernoRed, I did see these on the forum store after I saw TerryR's a year of so ago. Thanks for the suggestion, they do look very good.

True, but they look good. When I had the black coupe, I was going to do the slashers in matte black for the ultimate subtlety.

I decided to do mine just a little different than everyone else, but my mother always told me I was special, so it makes sense

Are those 18s and 20s? Rims look extra clean on your ride. Would like to know what brand and style they are.
