What do you think of this I saw a red Z vert at a show with a vinyl colored band and loved it, this is a crappy 10 second "select and fill" photoshop job, but what ya think?

 

Dont do it!

 

I agree, don't do it. I think its a good idea, however, red is really hard to match and it would be difficult to make it look right.

 

BLK tint will look much better

 

Not a fan of that.

 

I think it looks cool. I've seen a few cars with that on, and I've liked how it looked on all of them.

 

Black maybe! Any other color no!

 

No way! Use regular limo tint.

 

I dont really like it personally, but hey.. whatever floats your boat :lala:

 

Um . . . yuck.
Don't try to match the body color.
Go with black.

 

I say no go.

Red especially would be a hard color to match. And if you did find a good match, the sun would definately fade the vinyl quickly. Thus resulting in mismatch.

I don't know why people put those on... I don't like them in any color.

But whatever you wanna do, its your car.

 

ONLY in Limo tint does it look good.....

You can go with body colored band, only if you have a black car......

 

dont do it! i had a gray one on mine but that was only because i was in a car club...when i dropped the cc it was a pain in the azz to get off

 

If I'm not mistaken Iroc2nv has something like that. I think Redraif does too. I'd go with some sort of windshield banner as opposed to just the color bar, altho some cars have done it right, and you don't really notice it. But as was said earlier, it's hard to match the color right.

 

That car is almost perfect. Dont ruin it with that.

 

I agree! Those colored strips look only good on sport compacts, not on F-Bodies!

 

i like black better......... http://images.cardomain.com/member_i...16_43_full.jpg

the colored vinyl reminds me of my highschool days.

 

I agree don't do it.

 

:nono:

 

Oh well I like it...on my car...

I think its the line of the hood with the vinyl...it gives the car a chopped top look.

I worked a long time to get a red that matches, but it fades quick. For me i just replace it myself now & again, so its no biggie when the color darkens!

Again not for everyone... When I took it off the last time I really looked at the car with it off and it looked like it was missing something. Even Joe and Mom agreed it looks better with...neither of which are fans of the stuff...

And since the law will not let me put the red matching window tint up there, I had to do something for my eyes...

See the color matches well...








Ok that gives you a variety of angles...

 

Where's the snow and mountains?

 

you have no idea how much i hate them. and the only reason i hate them is becuase when you take a look at them, you see the red from the roof, black weather stripping, than red vinyl. if you could get it all one color, that would be great. ie - black car. other than that, i think it just looks stupid.

 

Ive got the tint strip on the top of my windshield and its worthwhile to note that if it wasnt transparent, I wouldnt be able to see stoplights. Just a thought...

 

Its not something I would do to my car, but then again I don't like vinyl anything on the exterior let alone decals even if they are stock ones. I like being able to see out my windshield. If anything, a light tinted strip would look great and not impair your vision out the front.

 

The only thing I can't see out of mine is airplanes. How far do you guys have your decals/bands/whatever going down your windshield?

 

.

 

Well I can see airplanes and birds thru my T-tops...so I can see everything just fine...Honestly...My strips don't impare my vision at all. I had a cop try to give me a problem about it and I put him in the car and the way the seats sit so low you can see the light, so he let me be....I can still see my hood over the bottom strip...can see lights under the top strip...so the vinyl works fine for me. The point in my case was to stop all the glare from coming in to help with the migraines & it works. And I actually like the look!

 

I think it would look simply fabulous.

 

...and i thought one post asking an opinion could squeeze through this board without being F**ked up by someone being ignorant.

Everyone else, Thank you for your opinions, I think I have decided against doing it.

 

Since he has made his decision and I can't see this helping anymore, I'm locking it to prevent it from getting out of hand.

Any questions or comments, PM me.
