Has anyone put racing stripes on their XC60? I'm thinking matte black on my black r-design and want to get some input before I put down the cash.

thanks

Are you sure you don't want the C30 forum?

Just kidding!!! Tone on tone might look pretty sharp...subtle as heck, but sharp.

This is what I'm thinking. Shown unfortunately on a mazda but you get the idea.

I dunno - the product looks nice, and although it's quite subtle, I think there's a case to be made for being too sporty. The car already has a curvy, muscular stance that might clash with a linear pattern the stripes introduce. I'd love to see the pictures to prove me wrong though.

Not my taste, but it's your car, so you have to be happy with it. I agree with Mandraxe. I'm not sure how these straight stripes would lay out on the curvy hood. Have you considered taking some pics of your car and playing with Photoshop or something similar? I often do that to help me envision how something might look (but I've never tried it with my car).
