Just installed new vinyl stripes!

My dad and I made some stripes up the other night and installed them. I figured I would put up some pictures and see what you guys think.

Not bad. Suttle look. Need to see a whole car shot to really tell though.

I'm thinking of taking the pin stripe off of the front bumper, being that it isnt the same width as the c stripe on the door. Here's a whole car picture, it's a little hard to see the striping because it was pretty cloudy out when I took the pictures.


Yep, still pretty hard to see. I'll get some better pictures when it's sunny out and I get my own camera

Yeah, they seem to shine in the sun though. I'll have to wait and get some sunny day pictures for you guys to judge them fairly.

The front grille pony? If this is what you're talking about I'm pretty sure its on the correct way, there is only one way you can put it on. I'm not sure I really understand what you are saying here.

Haha, nah it's on correct. I had to check and make sure after I had read this. All of the ponies on 94-98 face the passenger side. In fact I'm pretty sure that that is the only direction the grille pony has ever faced. I know that's the only way I've ever seen it face.

This pony pictured here should be facing to the front. Not the back.

Good question, I honestly do not know why. It's been that way ever since I bought it. I guess I just assumed thats the normal position of it. Now you have me wondering...

If you didnt put it on that way then someone else did. Both ponies should face forward. If the other side faces backwards too then they just need to be swapped.

Both ponies do face backwards. The only thing that may stop me from swapping them is how badly the paint has or has not faded around the ponies, although I doubt this will be noticeable to anyone except for me.
