To stripe or not to stripe?
Looking for a little feedback here.
I have a SW SS/RS w/ black hood and hockey stripes. I'm getting Vossen 22" CV3 wheels installed next week. I'm going to have the calipers painted red and was thinking about how a red stripe on the wheels would look. Please excuse the poor MS Paint hack job. Also, if this is your car, I apologize for pirating the picture.  What do you think? Red stripe or no red stripe?

Definitely NO. One does not simply customize a Vossen.

I would say no paint. I am curious. Are having Vossen sell you new pressure sensors or are you using the factory sensors?

I may be the only one, but I like the stripe.

Regardless, I kinda had an idea that doing a custom stripe on a premium wheel is a bit of a faux pas, which is why I asked here. I felt that the C5 community would staighten me out, and I was not disappointed in their comments. I am not going to be the d-bag that defaces an expensive premium wheel. Thank you to those who participated. Pictures w/ the new shoes will be up next Thursday.
