now see… i saw that car and wasnt too convinced but i saw a pic of pesky’s car and it looked pretty badass with stripes. Must just be the exige body that suits them best

have to agree with you there
I haven’t seen an s1 elise with stripes I like
looks awesome on an exige
I think black stripes on an orange exige would look mean

It’s a personal thing, but I think they look good, mine used to have them, not got around to putting them back on yet. However my last set of stripes were about 5" wide, with hindsight I think they were a bit narrow, next time I’d try them a couple of inches wider.

Not sure if the link will work but I did think about doing this on mine a while back but decided against it. It looked okay in the picture but I mocked it up with cheap tape on the car and didn’t like it.

I like it.

Needs continuing over the back of the car I think - although I’m not sure whether it would need to go over/under the wing or possibly both!

Like Dave says… its very much a personal choice, I think it depends very very much on the width and distance apart of the stripes, but i liked Gareths old elise, shown in the pic above, and think wide stripes quite close together would look excellent on a tango S1
