Yeah... have to agree with the majority on this one... does not do the car justice... just something not lookin right about them.

I am sure others will come up with more too, some worse and hopefully some better... ;)

RE: After Market Stripes
 

I'm in the same boat, the stripes seem to be way too wide in the back. I was always a fan of the stripe options you could choose on that "Paint your Challenger" web application that has been floating around. The 'Hemi' stripe in particular always caught my eye.

RE: After Market Stripes
 

Rider Graphix patterned the new stripes off of a 1971 Challenger T/A. Those stripes were wide, too. See:

RE: After Market Stripes
 

The stripes do not look right...they are not the same as the ones shown in the TA challenger at the top of the page..
they do not have the outline stripe that borders all the way around the whole stripe...does not look right at all.....
edit-

After looking closer at the stripes on the web site they do show the pin stripe around main stripe..its hard to see
on the pictures of the cars with the stripe..the info says they use the original specs for spacing I guess it just does not
come across as well in the pix...another thing that makes it look like something is wrong is the door handles stand out
.the contrast breaks up the stripe..on the originals the handles were black and blended into the stripe.

I'lll skip on these - they just dont appear right.


I like the billboards that HXC is going to paint on the Challengers to make them look like Cudas, the real fender gills and shaker hood all add to the total package. Boy I miss my 71 Cuda.

As crazy as it sounds I wanna do white Starsky and Hutch stripes with SRT at the angle! I tried to talk my wife into doing something similar with her Black 2000 Firebird (then the stripe was “Harley Orange”) No one lets me have fun!!!

RE: After Market Stripes
 

Im sure the production stripes will be better. Im glad they have hood stripes as well

RE: After Market Stripes
 

Yes, 08 owners need them in Carbon Fiber to match the hood. Also, too wide for my tastes. Lastly, someone needs to pattern the stripes after the 1970 'Cuda AAR that go the length of the car from front bumper to rear bumper and have them spaced outnow I think that would be cool and might do it myself on my Black Chally...

RE: After Market Stripes

A- orange
B- silver
