Pin stripe suggestions

Postby PDB » Thu Apr 30, 2015 11:37 pm

Has there been an 80/90s Toyota with a special pin stripe ?

I'm wanting to put something on my old Starlet but not sure what. I like the way ford used to do it on cars like the MK1 Fiesta XR2 and also the special touches like the faded bonnet decals on the RS 1600i

This is what I've got do far, don't think I like the red pin stripe from front to back, I'm feeling something a bit special in black

I personally think pinstripes look good on some rollas..... Have to be super careful though. One wrong stroke and you might as well add flames

Maybe do something like this ? The accenting of the wheel arches is very
old school, but has come right back into fashion in recent years.

If you chose the right colour and did a thin pinstripe just off the top
and bottom edges of the main stripe, it could look effective :)
