My hood and roof are starting to fade, and I hope to get at least those parts of the car repainted soon (the rest of the car looks good b/c I have always hand washed it often and correctly). I have not seen this yet, but does anyone think a racing stripe down the center of the car would look good (like the Mustang, for example)? Anyone have that? In my case, I would do black. Thanks.

not on an import. On domestics and British cars they look great, because thats the heritage... they use to have stripes for racing. But Japanese cars did not.

Well, that is a unanimous NO! I had a feeling these are the kind of responses I would get. Thanks for the advice. I agree with what you are saying.

Nah.. I dont think it'll work
In my opinion... I think adding racing stripes to any import car just cheeses the car up... --------------------  2003 Nissan Murano SE |
