Ford Zebra stripes
Does anyone have any good pics of Ford or other cars with motorsport style zebra stripes on them?
Im still thinking of bodywork vinyls themes. Skippad gave me some inspiration last night by doing a variation on the cobra stripe theme. It has got me
really thinking now!!!!
Cheers,
Darren.

Oh no not orange!!! You are the second person today to say Tiger stripes. The other suggestion was wasp theme!!!
Im not brave enough fo rthat. May have a go with chrome, silver and light blue on one side and something completely different on the other.

Full credit for this has to go to Skippad. He gave me some inspiration and introduced me to the chrome vinyl. Spookily a mate happened to have some
spare (i think he used it to cover some windows on a Landrover) so i got a bit off him. I feel a bit guilty that ive done him out of a job but i
decided id have a go knowing that if it went wrong i could just peel it off.
I have something in mind for the other side but that will have to be a pro job to get the lettering and scale right.

One thing about chrome effect vinyl though - it tends to only last a few months outside and starts to look tatty so you may find that you will be
repairing it quite often.
