Mine looked like hell IMO where they cut around the antennae and 'gas cap'... so I had them redo it. Removed the parts, redid the stripes, then reinstalled.

Good tip: Remove that stuff prior to installing.

Can you share a pic or two of your car with the new stripes? Can you tell me what color/brand you got and who from? Thanks!

*reviving this thread*

I've got the urge to get striped... I think I'm going to do something a little more unique and go red like the GT500s... Thinking 10" wide stripes might be too much, so maybe 8" would be better... we'll see.

I myself think that would look awesome, they had a Sterling Grey with the Colorado Red Striped GT500 Vert at the dealership and it looked great

I'm drooling over the thought right now. I could do silver or black but that's too boring. Red it is.

This is not a great photoshop, but just to give me an idea. I don't know if I will take the stripes all the way down the front bumper or not. I guess I'll see. The beauty of it all is the stripes are pretty cheap at <$200 so if I don't like or I get tired of them I can just take them right off.

Yellow on red (ala McDonald's) or just that stripe design in general? I kind of feel like those should be kept on Charger sedans, but if you like it go for it!

The color combo works. I personally don't like Le Mans style stripes on the '10+ unless its a GT500.
