    Got the stripes installed today all except for part of the engine cover, I still have to remove the ferrari logo to apply the final pieces.

    I'm not sure what I think of them??? I like them and then again just not sure.
    I also painted my rear grill black with the same paint (plasti-dip) I used on the wheels that will peel off when I get tired of it.

    I think your F355 looks great, Erick! Go ahead and finish up the rear deck.

    Not my cup of tea, but to each his own. I think your car looks classy with just the shields. So perfect.

    What about wider stripes? They look a little small but I get it

    Erick,

    I really wished I liked it, but I don't. The wheels look good. Plastidip is a great option since its removable.

    A pseudo challenge grill is a no no for me.

    The stripes might look good if outlined in another color, but as they are, look too ricer for me.

    Kudos to you however for trying some new looks for your 355.

    WING!!!!!
    Looks very businesslike, not as "pretty". That's a good thing.

    How about finishing the back just like the front with an inward curve inside the air scoop before the Ferrari rear logo?

    I think it would look cool...

    This is exactly what I was trying to accomplish with it. :)

    To those of you who don't like it I completely understand I'm still having mixed feelings myself. That’s what is so nice about vinyl.... Peels right off.

    I like it. Didn't think I would, but it seems to work, especially with the black rims.

    Hi I have always liked the bumblebee look and think yours looks great. Works really well with black and yellow.

    Looks great on a yellow car Erick. Not sure how it would translate with other colors however. I like the fact that you're experimenting and coming up with some cool (and easily changeable) options. The curved ending of the rear stripe looks nice as well.

    I think they look great! but.... I think they would look better if they were the original colour. Why did you go for more black?

    Black is what I was feeling...

    Now a question for you: How in do you get in either of your f-cars? Do you go through the window?

    Great!! Now if your wife drives by the strip club there's no denying you were there. I guess there's always the " are you going to believe me or your own eyes!" defence...

    LOL!

    I'm betting the window on the wall on the driver's side of the Scud is really the BatChute! :)

    Looks good.

    You only need black Speedline-Challenge-Wheels for the perfect look.
