    JMHO - but if you keep the modern "big rim no rubber" look - I like the no stripe. If you go "old school" rims and bigger rubber - get the stripe.

    It looks good both ways but I do like the stripe a little better. Are you bringing it to Waco? If so, looking forward to seeing the car and meeting you in person.

    Without

    I like it without. Looks like my Ethel looked in her younger days. I'm soft on that color blue 2 doors.

    I think that with the open wheelwells that the stripe makes the car look lower to the ground and a little more finished. Looks good either way though. Nice job.:bananaman

    After seeing the car this weekend I'm with Craig and Ward, it would really look good with some ghost flames (Not that it doesn't look good now). That is one clean car!!
