Re: RiderGraphix has some stripes ready to order for Challengers!

They do have the pinstripe, it is just hard to show in the photoshop picture. Trying to show the whole car makes them too small to see.

They are patterned after an original 15K mile 70 T/A that belongs to a member here. He sent us the exact dimensions of the pinstripes and the spacing.

This is a rough detail of the rear of the Door and the Quarter panel section. You can see the pinstripe here. it is a rough draft, and will change a bit in the final production version. The pinstripe to center stripe ratio will change slightly. The pinstripe will look a bit wider like the original did once it is finalized.

Re: RiderGraphix has some stripes ready to order for Challengers!

As an idea for a possible option:

how about a hood "strobe" that goes from thin to thick starting at the front of the hood? I like the hood blackout but instead of a solid decal why not something segmented? It would be "sort of" retro but a nice modern touch. I do not care for the factory hood to fender stripe offering at all and I haven't seen anything for the 09's that look like a hood blackout.

I suppose that what I'm trying to get at is a series of alternative stripes that aren't necessarily retro but that do accent the finer lines / features of the car for those who don't want to go totally retro.
