No more Pin Stripe! It was flaking off, I think it looks “More clean” now

 

I would probably get some aftermarket wheels.






























cool no-pin stripe though

 

thos are my snow tire/wheels :-)

I am looking for some white 5 spoke, any suggestions on rims?

 

^^snow tires in Florida??

Not feelin the kit, but the car does look cleaner without the stripe. That's the first 'mod' I did to my car

As for wheels, I'd suggest the Mille Miglia Evo 5 knock-offs on Tire Rack. I think they look damn good on a white max

 

Yes, why do you need "snow tires" in Florida?

 

for that 1 day it snows

 

just a joke, they are cheap kumo tires , im jsut burning them for now, till i get some rims this summer
my buddy at tires plus gets me free used (sometimes crappy) tires,

 

Take off the body kit and altezzas than it will be cleaner! Just my opinion.....

 

Can I ask what body kit that is you have? I really like the bumper.

 

not feeling the kit and altezzas either. Nice job with the pinstripe removal.

 

its all by VIS, the front is their R34 knock off

I bought it from a kit dealer in caly, said it was molded in the US

They are great if you use some boat fiberglass on them!

 

"Honeycombs BIG! yeah,yea,yeah!"

 

i like the no pin stripe look... lookin clean.

 

Pinstripe FTL. I got rid of mine the day I bought my car.

 

i had a gold pinstrip on my pearl white max and thought it looked good. but then my friend who got me the car was buffin the car and buffed it right off. removal looks good though, no residue of anything. but altezzas?

 

glad you got rid of them

 

my '96 is black, and it had one pink pin stripe and one gray one. It was the ugliest thing I've ever seen.

 

change those altezzas please, they just don't match the car, especially with ur bodykit

 

i have some red clear tails i'll sell you cheap bro. that is if you're interested.

 

good job with the pin stripe removal, must have been a pain

 

I am glad that you reposted the pictures. I had not seen them until you quoted the post and included them in the thread a second time.

 

i thought it was hard to get the pinstripe off?How did u do it?

 

HAHAHAHA I was going to say that!!!

 

It is a pain in the butt, 2 hour job
Soak the pin stripe in decal remover, this will not harm the paint
Carefully lift the pin stripe with a dull razor blade, sharp ones will cut into the paint more I found,
Scrub remaining residue with more decal remover and polish

I followed this with several coats of wax but I am a wax ***** and prob wax the car every other week

FYI I am ok with the quote I get to see my car more :-)

 

Wow! Honeycombs!!

 

they remind me of my fav cereal !

 

interesting..

 

too many folks making worthless comments.

phenryiv1, you could edit that post.

capital15, glad you don't like the wheels. how about you make a recommendation with that flame? that dude may like his car, just as you might like yours.

so give some input, don't just speak of how much you hate something on someone elses car. my bad, i spoke out again before making a donation. disregard this post.

 

No harm done.

 

I had white Motegi 5 spoke's on my pearl 96. Been a while though and do not see the style on their site anymore. Anyway, I loved the look of white rims on a white car, it was a pain in the azz to keep them clean though.

 

chrome are hard to keep clean, I would not put chrome rims ona white car tho,

 

jltibbs, are u still selling those red/clears for cheap?
