Racing stripes cool or not?

I can't wait till my car gets done. I swear I might get flamed some but really my car looks really good! Black with silver stripes and a super style spoiler on the back, with silver rims to match the stripes. The rims are old and kinda banged up but other than that the stripes look great!

Get what you think will look good. I would try to do them like Knonfs's though and not like a 70's chevelle dual stripes. Some nice small penstriping would look nice also.

its YOUR car
it doesnt matter what other people think
i prefer no stripes cuz im all about keeping my car shaved and beautiful without being flashy... but thats how I like it. other people might not agree with me.
the one in rxseven1's post looks pretty good but i wouldnt do it cuz its not me. to me it sends a message like "i'm fast! lets go!" i want my car to say "i am beautiful. im not gonna brag and im not gonna show off, but if you challenge me i'll smoke your ***"
and yeah it kinda makes it look viper-ish which is cool
but really its all about what YOU want.

Stripes used to be really popular in the mid-90s, for people to put on their cars. But then everybody and there mother had "racing" stripes! I remember back in like 1997 I saw this early 80s prelude junker (it had that ugly dull *** brown honda 80s paint) with 2 stripes made from that stick-on chrome trim ****, one going down the middle, and one offset on the right. And of course the $10 Walmart 3 spoke chrome hubcabs. After I saw that, I knew I would never put stripes on a car again (unless it was a viper or something but I don't have that kind of money 
).
).
