Totally agree with everyone here... very 80s. My first Accord had a double pinstripe job. I thought it was hella cool (like the chrome fender flares I added), but when I look back, I just have to slap myself on the head. My cousins still tease me about it. Red striping would only take me back to the days Chevy did that to the '88 Corsica and Lumina when their motto was "The Heartbeat of America". Those pics you posted look PERFECT. I'd keep the car just the way it is.

As previously stated, the collective opinion in this thread has altered my consideration.

Thanks for all the compliments gents; I too am a giant fan of this color. Someone previously asked about the auburn interior with this particular color. Interestingly enough, that was my color of choice prior to actually seeing it in person.

Let's just say that it looks great on a monitor, but not so much in person...at least in my opinion.

Wow.

Hey Folks,
Are we *emotional* about our cars, or what?

Yeah, pinstripe is so 80's, but then again maybe some of us have fond memories of the 80's...

Cheers,
