custom paint job

[jersey]

Hi yall<
I am looking for a photo of a MX5 that has racing strips. I had a small fender bender and figured since the car is in the shop, i will have the paint job done too. I was thinking about a wide stripe and a thinner strip in the driverrs side. anyone have any sugestions?
thanks

Lots of stripe ideas here:

Well, if an offset stripe is your thing, go for it! It's your car, after all. I'm personally not a fan of them (especially when they magically end up on the passenger side...oops).

Most Miata stripes I've seen are centered, whether that's a pair down the middle or one large with a pair of small stripes flanking it. That 2nd one I really dig.

Here's a great example:

If I recall correctly, those are vinyl stripes that rev installed himself on both incarnations of this car (the previous one was wrecked).

Sorry. I have the market cornered on offset stripes. Not willing to share.

Go with vinyl. That way if you don't like it you can take it off or change it.

I say don't be scared and commit. Paint! Heh
