AUTOGUY Posted July 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 (edited) sweet car for sure... just not feeling the stripes... the old classic version, the stripes fit that body style... these new stripes take away a little from the sleekness of the new body style and makes it look dated. Just a thought, instead of following the old style of stripes, why not improve them like dodge did with this updated version... the car was updated, maybe update the stripes? anyways, it's just my opinion i bet that took a lot of time and patience to get them on perfect... These were designed to make the car look like and old one. We have Challenger customers asking for this design. We will be doing other designs as well. We have the 71 R/T style, which is similar to this, but a split stripe, and are working on others right now. It took hours to get the templates and patterns perfect, but about 20 minutes to install them on the car. I have been doing this type of work for a little while.

Bad Bowtie Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 I love the stripes as well. It looks as if Dodge dropped the ball on that one. LOL!!! We sold an SRT-8 orange one just last week, and another local dealer has a silver SRT-8. Ur car looks funny w/o the optional sunroof IMO. Maybe it is just because all of the new Challenger's I've seen have them...? Either way keep up the good work, maybe u should get in touch with the Mopar Accessory Division. They might buy that stripe kit from u and send u some extra cash!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RacerJJ Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 (edited) I'm waiting for the drag race edition. They ran two of them in Denver a couple of weeks ago and at in the extremely high altitude they each ran in the 11's right off the show room floor.

Hankg42 Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 I love the new stripe kit as well. I was wondering if there was any kind of copyright thing that you had to look into, to be able to copy the original like that. I think you did a great job!

Turbocoop Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 I think those stripes look great- so did you buy the challenger or just put the stripes on it? I like how that car looks, I dont think Ive ever seen one around here yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CenWaSS Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 Actually most of the mags that have been doing tests on them are running from 13.0 to 13.5's bone stock. With a CAI, Exhaust and a tune, 12's are a given. It is a 5 speed auto. All of the 2008's are autos. The 2009 will be available with a Tremec 6 speed. My buddy has one and hit a 13.7 bone stock. Not sure how acurate it is but that time came from the car's computer (1/4 mile time). By the way...the stripes look GREAT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zbishop80 Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 Nice looking ride bro. Too bad I'll never own one because its a dodge, none the less its still a nice ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
