Has anyone deleted the red stripe on the under spoilers?

Can it be removed or do I need to order some 3M 1/4 pinstripe and lay over the top?

Thanks!

its actually pin stripe stick on. you can peel it off and add a black pin stripe so its not bland looking when you remove it . sounds silly i know but it will look empty ... i also want to delete the pin striping as i think its too much...have the wheels not come with red pin stripes i wouldn't delete the rest

I don't mind the wheel stripe but together with under spoilers is too much.

I wanted to get a Carbon looking pinstripe and blend it...

Has anyone actually removed it to confirm just pinstripe and not paint?

Pictures?

Thanks!

Not a fan of dipping, usually peels or flakes and more of a headache then anything..
