    Aftermarket stripes

    My 15 GT is triple black. I was wondering if it is reasonable or feasible to have stripes placed on it?
    Love the color combos on here, and I'm wishing I had looked a bit harder to find one with stripes.

    Or should I leave well enough alone?

    Thanks for the help...

    I'm in Texas and would like to add stripes to my solid white GTS; what's the name of the shop? Will they do the ACR-style stripes with the large stripe in the middle and the smaller stripe off-center on the driver's side?

    I think your best option will be vinyl. Vinyl now a days looks just as good as paint. And the best part is it is removable.

    The thing with paint is that you will have to get a reputable shop to lay the strips and blend the edges down properly. I know someone on here has a Stryker Orange ACR-E that they sent to Prefix directly to do factory stripes on it after the fact. I personally would go that route if paint is truly what you want.

    I had the Viper Store vinyl stripes put on my 15 TA 2.0 and I think they looked great. Had professionals do the install as I didn't want to screw it up. They also striped the little piece on the back window as the kit doesn't come with that. If you have a wing you also need the extra wing pieces they sell. You can try vinyl and if you like them you can always paint later. I never did.

    I had a very good wrap company do my stripes and they came out great! I wouldn't and didn't stripe the wing but I did the piece over the back window. Also I have seen some of the online kits installed and they have wrinkles when I've seen them on the car. I'm not sure if the owner installed them themselves or had a shop install them but they didn't look very good. Both hoods are hard to stripe because of the air vents so make sure to have a reputable shop do the install. Painting them on could be done after you decide if you like the color and the stripes period.

    Here's mine Gunmetal Grey with silver stripes
