center racing stripe much less racing stripe, much less white on yellow = FTL..

i have only seen one stripe on a tib that i liked.. it was my buddy back in MI. he had a club GTR kit on a silver rd2 with tinted tails. it had a black offset stripe on the pass side.. looked pretty neat

im pretty sure ive seen that one once. it was one of the best looking tibs ive ever seen, when i went to visit family in detroit, possible differnt car thou. there is a plain one in my town now. funny, i used to think that the GTR Badge he had on the back where most people had tib ment it was v-6 like the new tibs. still pretty sick up close

anyways back on subject. i think i may go with that paint design maybe different colors. i love it seeing it properly edited (thx DTN). im thinking maybe a deep red, an dark orange pin stipe to outline, and black center. posibly wrap around small marker lights as well but unsure or that right now.

OK final decision on my paint scheme. I'm going black deck, black roof, and black hood then corvette yellow in place of the duller yellow. i don't care about being a bumble bee. heck i can even go out and buy the dodge super bee stickers they put on there vehicles.

BTW my car is no longer mellow, but still yellow. paint will be complete soon, and pics will be updated!

hey i've got an idea for you:
my opinion, racing stripe, especially 2 or more stripes, looks odd on a tiburon, cuz of all the curves on the body, but what about curved stripes? i did my best on my computer, keep in mind i don't have photoshop tongue.gif

but here's what i managed, just a visual of what i'm talking about:

then your car can be a cool bumble bee just like the Transformers fing02.gif

just a penny for a thought laugh.gif
