Car racing stripes

[Mecontle]

So far i think only certain car makes can get away with racing stripes namely dodge viper/mustang, chevrolet camaro aka bumblebee, mini cooper & they really looks good. Anyone can suggest other make?

There is some history behind racing stripes. i think racing stripes originate from america where they paint the stripes to represent their national flag (stars and stripes). Not sure why there are no racing stars. Probably they look hilarious. So yeah, american cars look best in racing stripes (esp viper and mustang). Other than that, they look funny on jap and korean cars.

apart from racing stripe, some cars did a good job on their identity like the "S" on swift doors, the bright orange/green ford focus st/rs, bmw ring eyes, audi daylights, etc but when other make tried to copy they look cheap

I would think any 2 doors coupe would look good with stripes. Which I find out the official ride comes with stripes are all 2 door coupe such as Ferrari Scuderia or the Lambo Gallardo Balboni which is sold locally.

the problem with racing stripes is that sometimes it cost more than sticking ur entire bonnet, roof and boot , with sticker

Does this type of safety tape has any use in racing car bodies ?

bad taste if you stick it on the car body

[Gineew]

I think you can add it even if you don't have those cars as long as your car type is suited for a sporty look. :)

Those safety tape are widely used on body or moving arms/doors/plateforms of trucks, commercial vehicles, off road vehicles, industrial mobile lifter etc etc. They are also widely use on shop floors, stage and entrance with swing doors.
