Quote: It was one side on mine for a bit. But everyone was that one side thing now and any time I mentioned trying to do the second stripe on there other side they'd be like "2nd side!?!??!!" So that made me go, let me go against the grain and see what happens it's only temporary.
one strip offset like that actually looks pretty cool.

Red adds horsepower 🤫
I thought I was the only one. I Dyno'd the car and each red stripe added exactly 1.238 hp 🙃🙃

Quote: Here's how I did the single stripe on my C63, GTR and on my 3 RS. I like the look of the thin double offset on my cars.





I love the black on the bottom bumper!

The hood stripes definitely should go. It looks homemade, no offense.

The red accents might be ok if you got rid of the vertical stripes on the rear diffuser, and just had the horizontal line in red. That would tie in with the horizontal red highlight in front.

You need to have a strategic approach and a light touch when it comes to adding colorful exterior mods. Restraint is the key.
