    I quite like it!

    Anyone else think it makes the car look shorter?

    I like that too - It's quite neat and understated.

    It'd look good on a black VR-4 too, kind of like the 70s John Player F1 cars

    It's nice but might be not as effective if you decide to swap rims.
    I'm not arguing...I'm just offering an endless series of contrary points of view.

    They look pretty good....... the curve of the pinstripe follows the lines of the car lovely........ it looks like you have done a very good job........ i see these on ebay ages ago being sold as part of an Evo graphics kit, i was considering buying but decided I dont own an Evo......... wishing i had now

    Have to join you on that one. In saying that, I don't think it is horrid or anything, however I would peel it off if I bought the car.

    longine was the offical time keeper of f1 until the late 70's when tag heuer came along, so every car would have had thier badge on it.
    the jps lotus's (or should it be lotii ?? ) also had delonghii on the side.
    but either way one of the most tasteful car paint schemes ever
    anyway back to the topic in question, i'm not a fan of graphics, but that look quite smart and subtle /starts thinking about the black legnum in the workshop

    Must say not a fan of the Gold wheels on white cars but the stripes make it look good.

    Nice job.
