Rally Stripes. Thoughts?

[bluecheese]

Who here has put rally stripes on their 5th Gen? I was thinking of adding stripes to kind of spice things up.

Reflective concepts has some interesting choices available for the Laramie with the sport hood:

Which do you like better?

What about stripes on the tailgate?

Oh wow.

Sport in white is already nice looking. I dig the dual stripes on the hood and tailgate too.

No way on the single stripe on the hood for me.

What's up with the exhaust tips? Bent way out of shape LOL

Gilding the Lilly? Never had stripes and have had several performance cars.

I dunno. Sometimes a change is good.

Didn’t notice the tailpipes. I just pulled that image off of google and had AI add the stripes.

If you find someone to do the work at a reasonable price, Do It.

Custom painted hood and rocker panels

AI did a pretty good job. I'm considering this... Been a long long time since I had a vehicle painted. What's your guess as to how much this might cost?

Pic 2 looks like an exact copy of Camaro OEM stripe shape.

Reminds of the stripes that were on my 67 Plymouth GTX, two on the hood and the trunk.

Like the two stripes on the hood, not sure about the tailgate, I think because of how it looks at the handle.

The hood contour is one of my favorite features on our trucks, the single stipe doesn’t compliment the hood like like the two, IMO.

The tailgate stripes don’t match the hood. Hood has a border pinstripe all the way around it. Tailgate does not. Add the fully encompassing pinstripe cutting around the handle and it’ll make a big difference.

i like simple , but those do look good.

Another vote for dual stripes. I remember that on a blue Ram back in the day (Daytona?), thought it was awesome!

Dual stripes… and the stripes on the tailgate look good.

 

[CanuckRam1313]

Dual stripes on the hood and the dual stripes on the tailgate get my votes!!!!!!!!!!

I'd also slap on a pair of 5" black exhaust tips to fill it all in as well

Remember stickers left on too long take the paint with them when removed. Even vinyl with no adhesive . 2 looks good

I would put the dual stripes that are on the tailgate all the way from the front too. I just like how it breaks up the color.

 

[Tray Burge]

I'm a fan, but I love solid white lettering on tires for performance vehicles too.
I'm old school.
How is this not sexy?
You already have a bad-*** hood so you need to compliment the vents, not detract from them. I'm not keen on those suggestions you gave, but there's a right combo, you just gotta find it.

Looks great. I also love all the other "varieties" that were sent. I just did the hash marks on my truck but a little different angle because of my love for the Yakima Nation. So mine are like warrior strips like on the face. At least that's how I look at it. I'm not a Native American and have the love for Native Americans but my wife is half Cherokee. That's my story and I'm sticking with it.
