In a XR4 you can get away with it no matter what peoples personal preference is.

The shape of the XR4, and that of its base car the WP/WQ I think really lends its self to stripes. They look bold and very eye catching, all while not looking try hard. The whole shape of the car is emphasised by the cobra stripes and it looks extremely tough with them. But each to their own.

i prefer without the stripes, car looks much cleaner without them, also de-badge the car and dark tint. That will look mint!

I'm normally anti-stripes these days (a lot around)....but the silver does appear better withthe stripes.
Don't do top AND side....I think that's overkill. Just do the top stripes.

STRIPES!
They suit the XR4 perfectly; to be honest, I've always thought the ones without stripes look a little bit bland. But, to each his own... |
