Is it just me or does the Rally Yellow attract bugs? I mean I will go outside to my car or even in the garage and frigging bugs have landed all over it! I need to do some research on this, does yellow attract bugs!

Apparently it does. I use Zaino, and I know it attracts bees. So I'm not sure if it's the yellow color or the Zaino aroma factor....

YES.. I see these little gray beetles on the roof of our car all the time, and yesterday there were 4 Honeybees sitting on it..
P.S. Today There were more gray beetles, and one mosquito.
The Gray beetles seem to land on it when the sun is out and the surface is so hot it fries their butts... Luckily they don't stick and when i drive off they just roll off the car...

It's not the Wax, I have never waxed mine and get the same result.

Also I do get many bugs splattered on the front of the car... but I don't think they get there because they want to...

There was a huge spider web around my drivers mirror and door. The bugs love my car!

I find it impossible to even cover mine without a bugs being trapped under it. Once I couldn't get out of the car because of a swarm of bees.

That RS emblem Look great, but one of my pet peeves is the inner part of the hood stripes should not have the rounded corners, they should be pointed.. i think it looks much better that way.. more like it could have come that way from the Factory instead of added on as an afterthought....

Your "RS" emblem does look awesome!!!

Don't get many bugs when it rains all weekend. Cool background though.

Hey everyone. I'd been wanting to put bumblebee rally stripes on my Rally Yellow even before I got the car last year. A few weeks ago I finally was able to put them. Many thanks to RumbleBeeSS

in his thread for making great detailed measurements for his custom stripe job and posting them here. I pretty much used your custom design for mine, I hope you don't mind.

I think it came out great. I really recommend that if anyone is on the fence of getting the stripes done, that you go for it. The stripes change the car. Well enough of me talkin, here are the pics.
