Shall I leave these stripes on?

[cfcmick]

I've just put a deposit on an ex demo Cupra k1 from my local dealer

I really can't decide if the stripes should stay or not

If I get the dealer to remove them, would it leave any visable marks on the paint?
They have been on there for approx 2 months.

All opinions greatly received.

Not to my taste! Shouldnt leave any visible marks the paint shouldnt have faded in that short space of time!

I'd get the dealer to leave them on mate...and then remove them yourself. The dealer valeters aren't always the most careful with paintwork at the best of times!

Sorry I would get them removed. Doesn't look right on the Leon.

Hi cfcmick,

Yeah, definitely off!!

I've copied a link to 'chrisboyle999's' car with a black roof.

It's the most awesome sight I've ever seen on a white Leon/Cupra.

It continues up from the windscreen and looks all for nothing like a glass roof - wicked

If the link don't work, go to the post 'what font is the Cupra badge' and just scroll down!



chrisboyle999, if you read this, I hope you won't be offended that I used your pic without asking but I reckon it really does look the dogs, as does the whole car - well done mate

Lovely car....without the stripes!

I saw the same on a white FR some time ago, did look really good especially with rear windows and back window tinted.

I think the stripes look good - and was toying with the idea of them myself...

 

[Smiler-MK2]

Yes i think it looks cool in the photo maybe better in the flesh
Nice to be different aswell ?

 

[Wastegate86]

not offended mate, its not my car .

i too like the black roof tho. maybe go that way myself once the stonechips at the top of the windscreen get too bad.

 

[chrisboyle999]

stripes are copied fron the streetcopa.

i quite like them.

you need go faster stripes with a go faster motor!

Id go with that too.

 

[caveo]

Looks mint but loose the stripes mate , looks like road kill lol

 

[kev2477]

Not for me. Keep it on the mini coopers and suzuki swifts but thats it. Don't go down that road imho

 

[daz_cymru]

i like the strips my self and think they suit the car ....imo

 

[chrisboyle999]

what about this version?

 

[daz_cymru]

looks alright actually ......but i feel im not with the general consensus
