chrome pinstripes on my VZ's lights

[kause]

hey there guys nothing too special
just throwin these few pics up here to maybe get ur opinion.
all it is, is chrome vinyl cut down like pinstriping and simply applied..

does it look a bit iffy? be honest n let me know lol
cheers guys

Don't reckon it's any good on the headlights. Tail lights maybe a bit much all the way around, maybe just along the bottom like the BA's have?

Nice work tryin somethin new though.

[richardpalinkas]

i actually like it, where did you get the chrome from?

[CapriciousWL]

May stand out more if it is contrast with the car colour. If the car were black it would be less subtle. Eye of the beholder I guess. Looks good though.

As previous question - where did you get it and how much?

[kause]

Thanks for the feed guys yea i do agree its very subtle. Well, im an apprentice signwriter so i can get the stuff quite easily. Go to your nearest sign shop and ask if you can get there vinyl suppliers number. A good company is AVS. The vinyle i bought is $12.50 per metre. Its the cheap stuff but for what i used it for its suitable. If you order it through a sign shop it shouldnt be too much hassle for them but its easier to just get there suppliers number and/or address. Or alternatively you can buy chrome tape off ebay. Much more hassle though

Im just worried it might look wierd if the tail lights have chrome but the head lights dont

[2004_VZ_Acclaim]

I think it looks good and different nice work, i did the one strip line under like the Falcons on mine a little while back, it's good with the silver

Yea its easy man do it! One thing u need to consider is when the headlights are on.

[timmo666]

i think it looks tops mate, good on ya for tryin something new.

if you like the look of it, its your car so thats all that matters.

actually thinking of doing this to my ute now.

[azazeldeath]

What I recon will make the headlights good is having a small gap, so like 1/3 width around the outside, then atleast half again that around 2-3mm from the other pin strip.

[dzach23]

what about something like this
just a quick mspaint job

[walesy]

when i first seen the title of this thread i thought you may have put the pinstripes horizontally across the taillights, like the VP CALAIS? i think it might have been STEALTHY that had his done like that (if you understand what im talking about )

That doesnt look too bad man might muck around tomoro n see how it looks
