I recently got my car repainted, the paint on the car was factory from '89 and was due to get resprayed. I'm have a hard time debating to put the blue tape in the recess in the ground effects or leave it silver. Let me know what you think about the paint, I got it resprayed pretty cheap and it turned out good for the most part considering it is used as a weekend driver and not a show car. It cost $1000 and he bought all the materials.

That color is awesome. Looks clean without the stripe. Some ponies would look killer .

I'm working on finding a nice set of Pony's for the car. I think the verdict is in, no stripe.
