Ah cool. I'll be going to Monroe for the first time in years next weekend. I try to keep my Monroe exposure to a minimum lol.

I just moved here about two years ago (& it wasn't full time until about a year ago). I'm originally from the New Orleans area, but got moved here for the Haynesville Shale work, met a girl, blah blah. I'm trying to drag her with me to Houston, though.

Can you please do a grey with black stripes... it would be sex. Who the F$%K said strips on a Z would look bad?

The idea was alittle ricey but once you get past not doing the classic muscle car stripes and incorporate the hood lines it looks really good! I also would like to see the black stripes on a PG. Its a definite track car possibility

Yeah, Monroe is not the same as it was when I grew up there. I get back once a year for Christmas and it is depressing driving around and seeing all the places that have closed.

Well said sir. :tup:

Went to the dealership today for an oil change and they loved them.

When I first did mine, I was expecting negative reactions, but it's been overwhelmingly positive. A friend of mine even decided to put stripes on his 135I.

Don't do it on a Z. Don't mess up a perfectly beautiful vehicle. Racing stripes will just look tacky and it'll give it that ricer look. If you want to do it might as well two tone the car in green and purple and put 24's on it... JK, but yea don't do it. For the love of the Z community don't do it. It'll be equivalent to this status YouTube - 350z riced out... Not quite, but yea you get the picture. We have many who disagree the racing stripes and some who are for it. We should have a poll!!!

EDIT: Go for that Hella Flush look or go for that Time Attack look. Say NO to the fast and furious look!!!

Based on the pictures posted, I disagree with you completely.

Daymn, that looks sweet! Not sure about the red stripes tho...seems too flashy. I'm curious as to what colors would look good on the black Z *hint hint*

wishihadnav 04-26-2010 03:11 PM

^^probably a nice dark blue will look good on black...no stripes for me..i'll leave those to the zebras..haha

SophiaZ 04-26-2010 04:23 PM
