I like the '71 R/T stripe also.  Makes the car look racey and accentuates a haunched up look as it ends just over the rear wheels.  Has an in your face look to it.

I always thought the Bumble Bee Stripe looked odd, but it has grown on me recently, so I have to say the Hood and Bumble Bee Stripe   

And of course the dual ground stripes... :burnout:

Hi Culvers,

I prefer side stripe only ;?)
...and there goes the Challenger, the last american hero, the soul hero, the demigod, the super driver of the golden west. The last beautiful free soul on this planet!

I think the longitudnal stripe takes away from the body line of the Challenger even though it follows the body lines. :clueless: I love the bumblebee stripe.

big fan of the T/A stripe too.but i think on pink cars its a must, same with the black hood.really need to break up the color on pink cars or its just too much.
oh,and just for the record the T/A stripe is painted on,cost me 20 bucks worth of paint and tape,wont bubble or peel later.

I agree with the pink comments too.  that is why we are keeping the vinyl roof, using hood blackout, and side strobes, as well as tail panel and hood vents in black...

the black makes the pink...and white just does not do the same job

As far as the full length side stripe, I think the Challengers look better without them. But I do like the T/A stripe and the Rallye strobe. Now, this is not saying I think cars with these full length stripes look bad, I just think they look better without them. Cudas, now that is a different story, absolutely love the hockey stripe, it even looks good on some A-body cars like the Duster.
