ok well after thinking about it ill prolly skip the whole racing strips idea and just leave it for the mustangs and vipers to do. I have a new idea in mind. I was thinking maybe accents of red around the car. I got the idea from the Koeniggsegg CCX-R and I thought it was a cool idea.

^^^^yeah that's my fav right now. wish I had the 20k and lived in cali so I could go pick it up.

I found that yellow one with black stripes as well a few nights ago. I think it looks good. Might try to pick it up if my dealer doesnt give me the deal I'm looking for.

i like the new idea better, make sure you keep ur stripes(accents) with the curves of the car and it should look good. do you have a body kit?

The Koenigsegg is still using the reverse lights/rear reflectors right off the FD, that makes it the RX-8 second cousin twice removed or something.

If it was me, and i was forced to keep the stripes, i would have at least took the stripes to the top of the grill and left it there. Looks weird having it stop at the grill and then finish at the bottom of the grill.

Haha, at least lose the transformers reference. Thats only for ricers and idiots in my opinion. Also I dont think stripes really belong on this car at all.
