Default Gt Stripes

Just wondering how many people out the have put the XR4 GT stripes on there LX or Zetec Fiesta's.
I'm thinking of putting some on my Colorado Red 3 door, not sure if I should go for white or silver stripes. Even thinking about going for a couple of narrower stripes over on one side rather than the two fat ones in the middle. Has anyone done that and has some photo's to share?
Cheers.

here's a thread i posted ages ago with some offset stripes as a trail on my car.
http://www.fordforums.com.au/showthread.php?t=90268

It has a couple of other links on there too... I dont have any stripes on the car now though, I just havent had the time to clean the car and cut and apply the full stripes, not sure if I will now though. I like them, but with the XR4 out now it is a little off putting for me.....

Offset stripes are bad because they don't add the KW's evenly. If you offset the stripes to the right side for example you will have more power from the right wheels than the left.

So could you set the stripes to even out any torque steer?

I did buy a red Fiesta so it would go faster so I can see the logic in in the stripe side/power side theory! The bodykit was on my car when i bought it but I was told its a genuine Ford bodykit...
Thanks for all the pics of the stripy Fiesta's!
Still undecided but will prob go for offset stripes, white or silver...
Will be getting it lowered first, in a couple of weeks, then the sports exhaust!
