Has anyone put a pin strip on their car? If so, any pictures to share. I was just wondering what the car would look like with one on! GaToR

IMHO, pinstripes look tacky, especially on cars that already have great a design. I saw a dealer pinstipe a white Integra Type R once and it looked awful.

I wouldn't do it. IMO it looks totally out of place on this car.

Think that Honda will have spent millions $ on the cars design, if they thought it would look nice with pinstripes they would have put them on.

I was going to pin stripe mine but I thought it would clash with the flame job on the front.

Qtip had red pinstriping on a silver S and it appears the car tried to scrape them off.
