      I've never really liked that type of stripe.

        It could look good. Search, there is a couple of people with black cars and the stripe
        -FREEDOM- is cruisin at 80, windows down and listening to the perfect song-thinking "this is it"

          Either do nothing at all or make it look like this:

            unless you were actually ///M with an S motor, then maybe... but still, probably not.

                Whenever you see those stripes, the smart bet is that the car is slow. Don't do it.

                  Go for white doubles instead.

                      just a update- sold the stripes to this kid with a salvaged title e30 with a huge dent in the side and bright blue macco paint job, after seeing them on his car I realized why these don't belong on my car or any e30 worth more that $50
