Oh well classy

#Tee · 05-21-2014, 07:33 AM

classy af mate

Crisco · 05-21-2014, 07:42 AM

classy

adriang · 05-21-2014, 09:32 AM

IMO only white bmws can pull it off nicely

thecooltype · 05-21-2014, 09:34 AM

My car is white and I just ordered a set of the m3 colors. Gonna have it going from the left fender to the tip of the hood.

JesseJames · 05-21-2014, 09:41 AM

Them stripes should put on 5+ bhp

AviatorBimmer · 05-21-2014, 09:49 AM

More like: Ricey

FrankyGTR · 05-21-2014, 09:56 AM

i would never

WRichieX · 05-21-2014, 10:00 AM

Not a fan. But might look nice with some crazy body kit on it. For show. In for installed pics.

335iAP · 05-21-2014, 10:00 AM

Trashy as hell

AzureHaze · 05-21-2014, 10:05 AM

Pass. Only looks good as a livery for a DTM bimmer.

BRAISKI · 05-21-2014, 10:10 AM

Oh no! This is as bad as those Dodge cars having a strip in the middle.

Racing stripes eh

are you putting the M somewhere?

This won't look good in any mildly modded car, also it looks better on a white car. It has to be aggressive looking to pull it off.

By hey, its your car you can do what ever you want

So I got the idea from this car driven by an old guy in his 60's. I am sure he is a ricer. I simply say to each their own and it isn't bad when done nicely.

My car is white and I am looking fwd to slapping those vinyls on.

Why would you post a poll when you've already made up your mind? Do what you want, your car. But don't get worked up if people disagree.

thecooltype · 05-21-2014, 11:51 AM

Not at all worked up. Just get annoyed if someone would rather write "+5 bhp" and don't add any value as to why it is a no for him or her. We not kids

Good point on why post the poll. I guess I wanted to know how ppl generally feel about it.

mashimarho · 05-21-2014, 11:53 AM

I was going to lie and say classy like the others.

fravel · 05-21-2014, 12:05 PM

I just can't get on board with putting ///M stripes on a non-M car. The old guy with the M3 can pull it off because it's an M3.

Evochuck · 05-21-2014, 12:06 PM

It's probably going to look like shit, but you don't really want opinions do you?

b_minus335 · 05-21-2014, 12:11 PM

Thats a huge strip! Goddamn. I would definitely not recommend it. This is coming from someone who doesn't mind M details on non M cars, but this strip is just too obnoxious.

NickBlaine · 05-21-2014, 12:34 PM

I would say its good for at least +10 hp. JesseJames was lowballing!
