I tried a search to see if any body added pin stripes, but all I came up with were folks removing the red stripe on the lower lip. Anybody add pin striping to the upper section of the body? I want to add some to play off the red stripe on the lower portion. I'm trying to see what body lines look good to use.

My Si had a very subtle pinstripe added by the dealer. Here's the garage link. You can just barely see it in the third picture with the rain. I quite liked it and didn't realize for quite a while that it didn't come like that from Honda :D

Thanks for sharing. It is very subtle. Its right between the windows and the top crease in the body, right?

I didn't think of that as a potential placement.

Yup! Now that I'm thinking about it, I'm wondering how a red one would look on mine. I'll have to play around on photoshop when I get home.

Not saying they look bad just pin stripes have always reminded me of when you open a box with a razor blade and accidentally score the product inside lol

Well...you wont confuse your for somebody else's with that mod. Maybe test it out with vinyl and see if you like it after a few days?
