pinstriping?

what do you guys think of the little squiggles that pinstripers do? do you think some by the front emblem and around the door locks would look good in silver and red to match the hood, iroc decals, and brakes?

however the design would be simpler. that one is a little elaborate.

Re: pinstriping?

the reason i ask is because i saw this crazy 3rd gen at a car show. it had the turbo hood like me but it was this neon metallic green and dark metallic green. it was really cool. it had pinstriping on the spoiler going all the way around it (the 91-92 z28 style spoiler), some on the nose by the emblem, and some around the mirrors. i wish i got a picture of it.

I'm not a fan of it on cars. It looks ok on certain trucks. Just my .

Re: pinstriping?

Maybe a swirll thingy on the side up front or in the back, connecting to the stright stripes would look good, im a fan of the old school look

Re: pinstriping?

I think it would look good if it wasn't too flashy, like simple monotone colors. I think pinstriping looks good, but then again, I am Mexican...
