In NZ theres f**k all Hi Perf cars crusing around.
Only poxy dumped out riceburners running 20" chrome hummer wheels on 2x4 suspension with children under 10 driving them and a farmers milkcan for a exhaust.

Most of the s**t we got here couldnt pull Jesus off the cross.

No prick would know what a flippen GT was if they parked next to it.

I just wanna idea of looks, weather people would think " hey that car looks sweet" or "what a circus car"
heheheheeeee

I think with that dark tint ...you should go Black or Silver stripes :wink:

Alternatively, go to a good vehicle graphics / livery shop ...and get something custom!

There's a Narooma Blue BA XR6T over here with a custom set done by 'Red Earth Creations' ...and it looks s**t HOT!!! 8-)

Genuine stripes or nothing.

Why is custom wannabe?, to have something that no one else has??? GT stripes on a non GT is wannabe, and every C*** has them, boringgg!!!!
Cant tell the diff at a distance of what is what these days because of all the pretenders. If you wanna be a sheep, and follow the rest, go for it, its your car, or you could be REALLY different and make your own up and get them cut out, not a hard decision really if your not a sheep.

Well we used to have custom stripes on our old BA. Pic below. Dad designed them and got them made up...I think they looked tops.

That is till we sold it and the new owner wrote the car off :(

Well done, it looks a little different, you have to look twice to see the difference. Unlike the rest of the baabaaaaaa.

Funny you should say that. Before we decided on those stripes above we tried the cobra stipes out with vinyls.

Sorry for bad pic quality, was scanned in

Have at look at my user gallery.... ive uploaded some more shots of the beast.

I have already brought the stripes (ages ago) that Nedkelly photoshoped onto the car at the start of this forum. I just wanted to know weather I should fit em or bin em.

thanks for all your inputs..!
