It increases value of the car, theres a povo pack series 1 with the alloy grille, just a wing and stripes in a car yard in Mackay and they're asking something like 12k for it. Maybe I'll have to put them on mine if I ever sell it.

I don't mind the side stripes if they're done right on an AU in both location and colour coding.

I saw a black one with the C2R/Havoc kit on it (same as mine) when I was out looking at cars when a mate was in the market for a vehicle, it was black and it had silver stripes along the bottom of each side, and silver highlights on a couple of parts of the bodykit. I got to admit, it looked amazing.

I don't think my car would be worth "striping" as such, I don't think I could justify any colour of stripe against the red of it. Some colours look better plain, others look good with a stripe as a bit of a highlight.

This is, of course, my own personal opinion.
