i had pinstripes on it when i got the truck. hated them and took them off. they were following the lines of the windows and were just too jagged for me. dont have any pics sorry. just make sure you like them cuz once they are on for a bit they are a pain to get off even with the removal disc they make for taking it off.

My truck is at the dealership right now getting some work done. When I get it back I will take some pictues. I have the factory stripe under the windows that goes all the way back and another one towards the bottom.

gui88ford,

I had some 14" wide racing strips put on my truck about a year ago when I added the Roush Hood Scoop.

I found the Roush stripes too narrow for the truck and the 14" wide ones look awesome, IMHO. They are 2" apart and run from the top of the grill to the bottom of the tailgate and are the same color as the wheel flares.

I'll see if I can post a picture in my gallery for you to have a look at in a day or so.


Doug

Just subscribing so I can see Doogie S's truck when he gets the picture up of his stripes. If/when I do mine again, I'm getting bigger ones, mine were just entirely too small even for a small truck like the Ranger.

I removed mine as well! For some reason, I just think it looks better without them. You can check out my gallery, all of the pics are with the pin strips on, if you can see them.

How can you stand that? I pulled mine off and my truck looks boring, bland, and entirely too wide without them lol.

i dont know...pin stripes are not necessary to me nor do i like it at all. i have had a couple vehicles with it and have taken it off each of them. personal choice i guess..."extra's" on cars doesnt always make them look better in my opinion. its just like the "gold" package on cars to me. simple is better sometimes.

I agree 100%. Perhaps it's also a lot better without them on a larger truck like the F-150. I guess my Ranger is just so short and wide that it looks a little large without something in the middle to break it up. To each his own.
