Sunstrips for your car COOL or NOT????

[Tigz™]

I used to have one, loved it and missed it when it was gone.

But.

Think they look dated now.

Not cool!

[Max69vk]

They can look good if done right, but as Tigz says there a bit dated now.

I think they look cool, as max said if they're done with style.. I've seen a few in spain that have rear sunstrips.. that look cool, i think the rieger lupo had one?

Offtopic.. but Andi is this when your lupo was on 40mm springs?

-35mm springs and a boot full of goodies style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

Looks sweet at that height, considering only a small drop.

Heres that lupo i was on about with the back strip.

Uncool and tacky, the only type id have is a gradual window tint from inside

[AndyW]

Buy some sunglasses.

If it wasnt for my Sun Strip and my 1.0 engine over powering the GTI lump, Chris 'Poobah' would never have know about the club style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />

Sunstrips look cool on race cars (and lunalupi's car) but im not a fan, to max power for me style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

[Petrified]

I need one just like this, maybe a bit bigger.

I'm not a big fan of them on road cars but when they are for practical reasons im all for it.

The sunvisors do nothing in my car because the seat is so low, so this would be a good fix, and plain black on a black car surely wouldn't look too bad border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" alt="" />

I paid a friend £10 and he made and fitted it for me - it was worth it as I just knew I'd mess it up, this way it came out looking snazzy style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

I don't know where its from, but its a colour called 'charcoal' and its satin surface rather than gloss like you see given out with Max Power and the like (which look kinda tacky...)

[Philplop]

Uncool, but I have considered one for mine. I have sunglasses, but I still get glare from the sun, my seat's also very low, so the sun also seems to be rght in my face all the time. I'd go for a black one if I did, but I don't like the look of them from the outside.

Think rear ones are stupid.

Get one if you fancy it, can always take it off if you don't like it.

I like them, but they have been used and abused and can look a bit tacky now (especially with itallic text on them saying 16v). lunalupi's is discreet and is the way to go if you want one. But they are really pracitcal. Just dont get one if its coming up for your mot, because they are not allowed to enter the zone of the wipers.

ps dead easy to fit: mark a line either side of the sreen(from top down) at the same length, wet screen, slap on the vinyl, position to line up with the markers, squeeze out bubbles with squeegieor similar, trim as close to rubber as poss with scaple(trying not to gauge your screen or rubber). Leave 24 hours in dry, job done.

[Arosa Jen]

Personally i think they look good style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":tongueout:" border="0" alt="tongueout.gif" /> not to sure on the ones that have writing on them tho style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":ermm:" border="0" alt="ermm.gif" /> but each to there own.

[stevewp]

Ours has got some classy chrome CL stickers on either end.

Bit tacky really style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />
