Yeah I'm thinking I might just leave them if I can't find a cheap painted pair. I also have the white & black theme going so they fit in with that. Aahh decisions, decisions

On the other hand, the rocker stripes need to go, I think

I think the black on some cars makes the car seem slimmer and more aggressive. I put a black border all the way around the car for that reason.

Well it looks like they're back on newtakeoff in limited quantities. I need to pick up a pair now as the unpainted V6 rockers do not flow well with the GT/CS rear bumper

I just hate the side stripe look in general, Im not sure what it is but I have never seen one I like. If you take it off I think it will make the car look lower
