Were you drunk when you put it on? It's a bit to the left :P
Not too bad... Could definetly grow on me.
Have you got a sunroof? Or is there a gap in the stripe? / glare from the sky?
Peace

looks great! i think the front bar bit should be straighter, just looks a tad off on that angle.
what would set it off now is a set of white + blue rims!

I'm not usually a fan of tripes, but they look good. They look a little wonkie on the front bar due to the shape of the bar but you can't do anything about it.
Keep up the good work and get some paras!

As will this one :doubt: Mightymag, I've got nothing against what you want to do IMO Scotty's stripe looked awesome, but it was and still is a very distinctive car because of the stripes. If you don't change the design people will probably give you copious amounts of crap for copying him. If you can deal with that then go for it :thumbsup:
P.S. my votes for red :D
fair enough, its a nice car though :P

still needs skirts for the arches though :P

Well i liked scotty's old car and yeah so wat if i copy it Wheres the copy right law on it. If scotty said to me no i dont really want you to copy what i done i would respect that. I can live with O Look you copied scotty's old car. Well Wat about o look you have a try hard fake ralliart or vrx. As i said i like scotty's old car i couldnt buy it so why not make one.
Yeah I dunno which one black or red maybe we all will have to wait and see.........

Anyone who gives you crap about doing something to your car is a **** head!!! How can it be unoriginal because there was 1 other car like it, when you see how many thousands of commodores / WRX's / Skylines getting around with same bodykit / wheels / LED washer jets etc.
It's funny - I was once accused of being a copycat with my car...... by someone who AFAIK didn't even own a car :bowrofl: .

More like Commodore. Falcons only have the bonnet highlights :P
If I was doing stripes, I'd do it similar to the SS Commodores. It starts on the bonnet and finishes on the bootlid. It breaks up the large panels (bonnet/roof) without looking too overdone.
