Racing stripe question?

[cghstrojan08]

Do you think our trucks would look good with two racing stripes down the truck? If so, what color on my truck? Thanks

i dont. but i do like them when they have a white roof a body color ontop of the sides and white on the bttom of the sides. a three tone type of truck. they look good two toned also.

I like two black stripes on the hood of the brighter colored trucks, don't think racing stripes would look very good.

I think your truck is more of a cowbow than a racer. I would Paint the Roof White.

If you had the small side mirrors and ditched the smoke stacks and fog lights, I would do a single offset silver strip down the drivers side 8-9" wide. Then run a 1/4" stripe on eather side of that.

Ok, won't do the stripe. I would paint it with the white top or take my stacks off. I love my stacks.

Hello,
Personally i think your truck has an "18 wheeler" theme with the tool box, stacks, top lights, lots of chrome etc.. You need to stay with your theme, the racing stripes will be confusing to the eye, if it was me, i would do a white top.
keep the stacks, i kinda like them.
What happens in the rain when they fill with water?

Rain is no problem when its running. I made some plastic pipes with tops to go over the stacks when the truck is parked.

i think it looks good the way it is. if you've got money to sink into it now i'd go for performance parts.
