Screaming for a nice side stripe
« on: January 23, 2008 - 06:29:59 PM »
Let's face it as cool as these new Challengers are they are very PLAIN looking. A nice side stripe would make this baby look 100% better. A 70 T/A stripe or a 70 R/T Side Stripe !!!!
What do you THINK ??

I just mentioned this very same thing in another thread.  :grinyes: I like how the side stripes break it up a little. Put some black ones on that silver car, and it will pop.  :thumbsup:

Not sure what I would like the best, but I agree that it needs some kind of stripe to set it off...    :bigshades:

I think the aftermarket will be all over this.  Hopefully, they will be more tasteful than some of the Charger stripes I've seen.

No dought.  The silver is plain. It dissapears inbetween all the BMW's and Benz's.  A sidestripe would help alot.

BTW, notice the rear spoiler option.
One of the first factory appearance options?

After thinking about it I came up with a 70 R/T side stripe but at the end put a HEMI call out like the 70 Cuda hockey stick.
