Anyone ever seen a Thing with Racing stripes? Toying with an idea of a red Thing with black stripes, lowered of course.

It seems to me that TTS used to have something like that but it may have had a strobe effect rather than a solid stripe.

I personally don't like stripes on these cars. With all of the angles and other protusions it makes the car look busier than it already is.

I think stripes are ok, but I'm into custom graphics anyway. Only if you use real paint, not vinyl.
If you lower your Thing, you will probably miss the fun of balls out on a desert trail or fire road. Weeeeeee!
