i really like it until i saw the last pic? imo the stripes shouldn't go on the back bumper of 3rd gens, or the roof either, just looks cheap or somethign to me

other than that it's looking great

the stripes might just be a little too wide and close together in the back for it to look right.

I've consistently gotten mixed reaction about the stripes on the rear of the car ever since I got it back. I put stripes on the roof only because I was absolutely dead-set about having stripes on the rear bumper. I thought it would look kinda wierd if I put stripes on the rear bumper and left them off the roof. Yes, There will soon be a complete exhaust- Headman headers, hooker muffler, and 3 1/2in Magnaflow slant-cut tips. All my wheels will soon be finished (polishing) as well.

Here's another pic of the rear of the car from a closer and lower angle...

I agree, the only thing I don't like is that if they go all the way down the back, they need to go all the way down the nose too.

It's black, the pictures were taken on a really hot and bright day by an inexperienced photographer with a disposable camera and really don't do the car justice. I also thought of doing full-body stripes but only like that look with a cowl hood. If I buy a cowl hood someday I will definitely go ahead with that idea.
Also, the work was done by my friend's dad for $1200 and it took just over a week and a half to be completed.

Thanks for all the compliments and opinions guys.

looks nice, not a fan of the way the stripes were done though....

the detail where the plate goes isn't really necessary and i'm also not a fan of stripes all the way down the bumper. the fact it wasn't matched in the front really makes it look unfinished. you say it's a 92 but those stripes resemble an 82-84 paint job.

not my taste but i bet it looks shiney which is always cool to me.

I think the front looks really good. But the back seems like the stripes are too big or something? Maybe its the fact that im not used to seeing em go all the way down?

The stripes look odd being on both the spoiler and the decklid...although it probably looks better in person.
