Bit 70's for my liking. Kind of reminds me of what Half*rds used to sell for Capri's and Cortina's.

Tinkering with aftermarket stick on bits for the Monaro is just asking for a 'fashion disaster'. Think VXR eBay a few months back....

Yeah that's true you could end up with a mess, although you get the go fast stripes on Ford GTs ..... but then again on Fiesta RS' laugh

Ford GT, Ford Mustang - yes; new Dodge Challenger - maybe; Monaro - definite no.

I don't think stripes/stickers, or aftermarket body kits, would suit the Monaro. It's a very clean and smooth looking car. I'm biased but I think the 5.7 VXR side on is still one of the best looking cars around - I'm not a fan of the nostrils of later models, as it breaks up the lines, like stripes would.

Stripes a Holden dealer option on the latest VE commodores!
The Ford/FPV guys have had them for a while! Their brochures have every combination of stripe and colour!

Hasn't a forum member on here gone the whole hog and wrapped their GTS in Toll HSV team graphics?

When I saw that in the flesh at Rockingham it looked pretty special.

With regards to the bonnet stripes, looks like it's trying to be very retro, from the days of square angled American muscle. On the more smooth flowing Monaro in my opinion they don't look quite right.

Not just the colours either, front splitter, side exhaust, colour coded seats etc
