   I previously had a polo and added racing stripes to it, they looked awesome.
   What does everyone think they will look like on a 5 door black saxo desire.
   
   Im kinda thinkin they mite look silly but i want to add them lol.

   1 up the middle = ghey
   2 up the middle = ghey
   
   2 small ones off to one side of the car can look ok SOMETIMES, but more often than not looks

    IT IS NOT COOL TO WEAR DODGE STRIPES even on a dodge now i would rather it be plain because all the corsas and saxos have killed the stripes on everything, so much so i could never look at anything in the same way so long as it has 2 stupid rip off addidas stripes!!!!!!!!!!!!!where did anyone ever get the idea from because its never appealed to me???????

    nah, dont do it. preferibly i prefer two different colours such as white and green but not racing stripes if that makes sence.

    Dont waste your money on Egay.
    
    Just park your car in the middle of the road and wait for the council to redo the lines.
    
    Bingo bango, free stripes, you'll be a pure babe magnet!
