That does look nice! :woohoo:

I am getting more and more tempted to stripe my Charcoal F.
I think a similar shade to yours, or possibly chrome would do the trick.

its quite easy to do, if you google it theres a few videos showing you how to. thats what i done. just make sure theres not bits on the paint work as it will show up through the vinyl . happy striping

Bear in mind that if you leave it on for a year or so and then decide to take it off you are likely to be left with two tone paint where the exposed paint has faded and the covered paint hasn't. :ohmy:

I dont agree with that, the water based two pack paint that is used does not tend to fade and the base coat is protected with clear top coat. :cheer:
