Ok no fighting!!
I am considering putting the stripe up the middle of my Chim! What's your thoughts on this? Anybody got pics of their cars with them?

Sweet! I was thinking doing 1 to the right hand side with 500 cut out running up the bonnet so the paint colour shows through

You're only saying that coz the speed limits in Norway don't let you drive fast enough to warrant them wink

Got them off fleabay, one set of 5" stripes and one set of 1". Pretty easy to apply apart from the ones on the boot where it's a bugger to get them to go over the lip at the back, especially if it's a facelift Chim as the boot has a deeper lip to it.

generally I like stripes, does depend on the car though, personally I would go for a contrasting colour, so dark car = bright/light coloured stripes

I had my orange stripes done professionally by Boss Dog in Dorking, £100.00 iirc.
