Im with this guy!! Your truck looks fantastic, those stripes dont add to it and I actually think they look horrible.

Glad I'm not the only one.

Thanks for the input guys, when I put it on and stood back it didn't do anything for me either. I just ordered a Ultra Blue Metallic stripe from Prostripe, that will give it some pop.

You didn't like it either but you're adding more :think: well hell, give it a whirl and post some pics!

How does a stripe that is designed to help the mix of 2 tone, look bad? Its just there to break up the BLACK to SILVER. I think it should be right in the center of where the 2 colors meet, but instead of black, be a contrasting color that goes with something very subtle on your truck to make it pop.

I think the pinstripe looks pretty good. Where did you get your taillights, if you don't mind me asking.

I got them from this seller on ebay.

That was the plan from the begining to have a stripe to break up the black and silver, it's just trying to find what looks good! I should have the new stripe by the weekend and we'll see how it goes.

I would've gone with a red pinstripe. Black/Silver/Red=awesome. besides, it would've gone with the tails, but please find a way to make it go all the way up to the corners in the front, it looks half-way done when it stops at the door or on the bed. I like it though, makes the transition more interesting.

i think you need a hand painted orangeish red stripe, right where the 2 colors meet, i think that would look good
