Spotted on a D3 for sale, customs stripes with a nod to the historic early days.

I think it works well with the Blue paint. Reminds me of some of the RS's Sytner did with blue green front spoilers, they were a bit less subtle though.

Does seem to work on a blue car. Shame about the fake boot badge though

These stripes would also look good on white.

Definitely. I want someone to do it just so I can see.

Come on Paul (Frosty) - I can see you are tempted! Would look amazing on your car I reckon.

I think I would if I was you - takes the decision away from silver/black as well. Will look superb!
