I usually say stripe but yours looks quite nice without. Not enough red showing on the exterior for it to suit it I reckon.

Have to agree me thinks, no stripe looks good, however the chrome one might look good but who knows til you try??

Chrome would look tacky in my opinion, I like it without the stripe or with red but the masses have spoken lol

Red does look well Jeff but If your looking for a subtle change then how about a dark grey stripe? Im sure it would look well. ;)

I pulled them off as they had faded but then thought I fancied a change, grey might be nice, I'll see what subtle colours I can get, it needs something in the gap to divide the bumper a bit for sure:thumb:

Lets face it you cant opt for a cheaper change really! Im sure their is plenty of 10mm stripe available on ebay in various colours. If you dont like it then change back for a few £ etc. :)

Certainly needs a stripe to break up the colour IMO.

A subtle grey stripe could work - maybe a carbon patterned one to match the vents? Or would that look too chavtastic...

As long as it isn't in your face and subtle "chavtasticness" should be avoided lol
