No Top Stripes

Hello All,

I recently purchased a Fiesta S1600 and I just wondered if anyone else off here has one without the top stripes on? I don't think they where ever on the car (I recently detailed it and couldn't see any ghosting from where they were on there). I personally prefer it like this anyway. :D

    you would gain a further 10Bhp if you had the strips on mate, lol

    i personally think the car looks better without them too, i do like the side strips but i dont like the OTT strips on any car not just the fiesta.

    the OTT strip belongs to a 1999 Dodge Viper GTS and not on any other car lol

    Cheers! I am guessing the previous owner from new had the same thoughts as me and you, the side stripes are just enough. I am with you on stripes though, only work on certain cars! Best example I feel is Eleanor! Need I say anymore! But if they add another 10 BHP, :D :D
