In a way it does. "Do you want to look like an '80s throwback" is the gist of it.

I think it would look ok if you go the whole hog and get a rally number and sponsor graphics along with the zebra stripes.

Like that model...looks good to me, more privateer rally car that te same old 555 or swoosh stuff, they have been done to death now.

If you like it get it done, the end of the day its your car, but if you go to shows and meets be prepared for a few differant views, as they say each to there own.

But i think it could look ok

I personally think zebra stipes is way OTT and would look ridiculous. Lepoard spots has way more class.

ROFLMAO!!!

Yes each to their own I guess but 'tiger' stripes did first appear on the old mk1 rs turbo's back in the eighties and they look dated and even more ridiculous now but thats just my opinion, you like em? go get em!
