    Where is the no stripe button?

    These look terrible IMO.

    Scud by a mile.
    I used to like the CS, but now it looks cartoonish and aftermarket.

    Scud stripe by a mile. Even better on a Scud as it matches the colour of the wheels and the shape of the lights.

    About 70% of our Stripes finish up on the genuine article.
    Most like the idea that they can remove it if they don't like it, however they seldom do.
    Of course, we only intend for them to be used on Ferraris, they are guaranteed to self destruct on anything else. :) :) :)

    IMHO, Each stripe helps to define a particular era and should not be used on another model.

    My interpretation of the result is that the small narrow stripe (Scud or 16M) is preferred. This makes sense on the 458 which is really too elegant to support much of a stripe, and may well be best with none at all. However the Speciale is more aggressive and not elegant, so the stripe is more fitting on it than the 458.

    This.

    Stripes are only slightly more visually appealing than faux leather car bras.

    A tatoo looks better on an ugly woman and not so great on a beautiful one. ;)
