If anyone has ideas on pinstripes I'm very impressionable at the moment haha. Everyones heard it all before but I believe keeping things visually clean and standard(ish) still makes it unique or standout if you prefer, particularly if its on an older car like this example. Chrome bars will look the business for sure! Pinstripes?? Theres an abundance out there to choose from, you can get off the shelf stuff from autobarn as no one else stocks it or possibly a vinyl cutter (signwriter) or panelbeater may have old stock laying around. Ive put stripes on all of my cars, starting with the ae82, ae71 which was harder as I had to apply each stripe seperately while perfecting the gaps to replicate the originals and lastly a blue set on the ae92 which came out great. Josh, A proper CS 1981 to Aug 1983 (non hicam badged) featured a single stripe. Colour of striping was determined by body colour. From September 1983 (hi cam badged)the flat fronts had the triple stripe which again was dependant on body colour :y: A few examples for you, both easy to come across. One single stripe the other double black or blue would look the business :y: What are you planning on paint wise, acrylic, 2 pack or?

bAKER Posted April 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 I was going to get a sign writer to do the stripe. It's going I be black to match the wheels. I like the idea of a short thick stripe, from the tail lights to halfway through the rear door. I'm gonna throw some ideas into photoshop see how they go.

Hmm I think I know where you going, will the design or colour choice be modern or 80's spec? Either way it should be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id really like to make her look as 80's as possible, but I'm so indecisive... I really like how you have put this together dude, clean cut and no bullshit. wheels look ace!
