    I have finally narrowed it down to two stripes. I am going with a Brazil type stripe. I dont know what to do with the top of the stripe. I have debadged my car so I dont want to go with "Grabber" or "Maverick" . Could you please give me your opinion on which stripe you like best. I really am torn. My car will be red. Thanks for whoever's car I used in the photo shot.

    BTW, I suck at photoshop.

    I like the first one the best. But I like factory Grabber stripes best.

    I also like that idea and I've seen a few others do that too.

    Or better yet.. extend the stripe up a tad more to allow enough room for the "302" to be cut into the middle of the slanted black stripe. Then the "302 emblem" will really pop since it will be white(body color) showing through the black stripe. (y)

    2_darren_side_original.jpg I like the one we did on my car. My second choice would be a Grabber stripe with no Grabber logo. Not a fan of hockey stick stripes.
