They're vinyl and silver (metallic) in color. The dealer had added them before I purchased the car. Once these wear out I'll likely get the vinyl removed and silver stripes painted on in their place.

I've wanted white stripes on my grabber blue GT since the day I bought it. But I haven't pulled the trigger yet.

Douglasland, I'd leave it without the stripes. Your ride is sweet as is. On a side note, have you seen the red stripes on grabber blue? I think it looks pretty sharp.

So I've gone ahead and told my shop to do the render of the job. I'll keep you posted on the progress....

Pilot & Swat: Thanks for the compliments on the ride. I am really enjoying Southern CA winters with the top down.

Swat: Yes the car was completely worth the wait. When cruising around town I'm just starting to consider shifting to 3rd when I am the speed limit or into traffic. This car is soooo much fun!

Pilot: I've seen the Blue with Red stripes and I really don't like it.
