    Ive got the 40th anniversary edition GTP and i wanna do some striping, i think it would really dress it up nicely.
    definetely gonna go with black in colour as thats the whole two tone with the car (interior etc).

    Option 1:
    Im just wondering do you think i just just go with like a hood stripe? (like the one in this video 0:23)
    YouTube - 40th Anniversary Pontiac GTP Grand Prix

    and do like fender stripes as well..

    or

    Option 2:
    do a full 2 stripes from hood to trunk.
    my question is how would i do that without it looking retarded because of the hood scoops.
    Has anyone done it before?
    if anyone has a pic of a 40th anniversary one that has done it that would be awesome.

    Another Problem i run into is at the back of the 40th anniversary ones on the spoiler it says "Grand Prix" in a whiteish lettering. If i do option 2 i wouldnt know what to do about that. i kinda wanna keep that lettering there.
    Appreciate some imput. thanks.

    Dont do fender stripes....I want to be unique....lol

    IMO they make the car look better, doesnt look as roundish with them...

    vinyl sticker. not that expensive, unless u need a pro to put it on. i suggest not doing any stripes. get a nice windshield brow or something.
