EDIT: I didn't get the stripes from Big Worm if I didn't make that clear enough.

No that was clear. So the silver they offer, matches your stripes? But the pewter lasts longer so you got those (and they match up pretty well)? Hmm. That throws me for a loop now. More options means more choices. I'll look into it.

Go vinyl - as someone else said, you can peel them off and change colors if you like. Putting them on can be a pain but you can get a 2ft x 1ft sheet online for like $5, and there's a decent DYI in the forums. I did mine in black, check the red 1LT w/o stripes in these pics:

Here's a picture I hope helps you see how well they match!

Here my bowtie I used plasti-dip to paint it. And it matches the grill pretty darn close.

CaniacFan · 08-13-2010, 08:21 PM

I did vinyl as well, wasn't sure I would like it and I didn't want to pay $100+ for bow ties.

Just got these from reflectiveconcepts.com

There are a few tiny bubbles but it's not really noticeable.

Thought I'd throw pics of the one's my girl got me. They were painted by Orange10s.c. Aka Gary's Custom

Go to a vinyl shop and ask them for a scrap piece in the color of your choice. You won't need much and the cost should be FREE. There is a thread that shows how to install the vinyl. That is what I did and they look great.

3M Di-Noc Carbon Fiber Vinyl

Cmicasa the Great XvX · 08-16-2010, 08:21 AM

Got my car on Saturday, and have already ordered Rear Balck-Out, Injen CAI, and Foglight bypass cable... still debating and researching Exhaust Mufflers and it truly boils down to cost and sound. I have read great reviews of Magnaflow, Borla, and MRT.. but also found extremely positive stuff on the less expensive Chery Bombs. Can someone rank them??

Anyway.. I got kinda anxious and took some time to make use of some Carbon Fiber "look" Tape and went to work. What do U think?

Cmicasa, it looks good but your pattern doesn't line up
