A lesson in vinyl: Pink is your friend :) - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

nickelmedia · 02-19-2005, 07:30 PM

97dubtruck (Jay) and his better half (Heather) made the long trek from Atlanta to Orlando today to get some vinyl work done. Had it not been for an unfortunate family emergency, we'd have done a bit more (now it's an excuse to go to drift Atlanta to finish it.)

So here's a step by step of his HARDCORE silver and pink tuner stripe.

Thanks Jay and Heather for coming down!

What the hell is a "tuner stripe?" Did he tune the car to get more horsepower with that ugly ass stripe. Gotta love the drift pose pictures too. It's really drifting I tell ya.

Dousan_PG · 02-19-2005, 07:41 PM

holy shit
tahts the ugliest idea ive EVER seen

i think i saw that on some HOT honda civic w/ the skyline body kit and shit

damn!

you guys have NO taste.

SimpleS14 · 02-19-2005, 07:46 PM

Nice work...not my thing, but still not bad.

SilviaDriver · 02-19-2005, 07:53 PM

theres nothing hardcore about JDM [as stated in your GB thread] about vinyl

the pink made the car look stupid, if the smoked taillights and rinken mesh didnt enough.

Andrew Bohan · 02-19-2005, 08:03 PM

no love for nicklemedia.

carry on.

ruthlesstyper · 02-19-2005, 08:03 PM

You sir, are slowly killing a kouki s14... =(

zero.counter · 02-19-2005, 08:07 PM

Tough crowd for NICKELMEDIA...

If the stripe was chrome, then it might have been a different story.

Brian · 02-19-2005, 08:09 PM

If that's your thing, okay, cool.

But it certainly isn't mine.

s13Dr1ft · 02-19-2005, 08:10 PM

was it worth the gas?

Chillaxed 240sx · 02-19-2005, 08:17 PM

Not bad. Definitely different, that's for sure. I think the pink was his girlfriend's idea, though. Hey, at least you don't look like every other black S14.

A "tuner stripe" would be the industry standard term for that design. I didn't come up with it. And thank you for your positive feedback.

Gladman · 02-19-2005, 09:27 PM

not a huge fan... but its not like a huge tranformer pointing down the side of your car, so its all good.

Most people take off the striping when they first get their car. In this case, they put it on after having their car. Different strokes for different folks.

kandyflip445 · 02-19-2005, 10:41 PM

I don't like it.

But you did a good job of putting it on.

***S14DB*** · 02-19-2005, 11:52 PM

There is only one time when Pink is my friend. Vinyl is not it...

I agree. The graphics (and the pink) looks homo.

Also, thats not Riken mesh, its Enkei. You can tell because Enkei mesh have "smooth" centers whereas Rikens have the mesh pattern continue over the center, unlike the Enkei.

But I agree. Mesh does not belong on S14.

evilimport · 02-20-2005, 12:50 AM

OK lemme get this right....

Tuner stripes go on the side of the car and racing stripes go on the top of the car?

NOTHING beats OEM black, especially on a kouki.

Johny5 · 02-20-2005, 12:52 AM

those things are about as cool as trying to play off 4lug 15x7 uber unrare enkei mesh on a kouki s14.

**mrmephistopheles** · 02-20-2005, 03:19 AM

I'll fix the statement.
Flat-faced, tiny diameter mesh doesn't belong on an S14.
And flat-faced mesh doesn't belong on an S13.

And vinyl belongs on show/race cars.

lilredstiffy · 02-20-2005, 03:46 AM

are those chevy lumina wheels?

vinyladdic7ion · 02-20-2005, 05:38 AM

the whole vinyl scheme, car, junkyard rims, and people displayed in the pictures is PURE FECES.

dct223 · 02-20-2005, 05:58 AM

Why!?!?!?!?!?!!??!?!

AlligatorBling · 02-20-2005, 06:07 AM

not bad, kinda spiffy.

sepulchral · 02-20-2005, 06:51 AM
