    Has anyone thought about or actually pinstriped their Gen 5? I pinstriped my Gen 4 and thought it looked quite good. Once the weather breaks I might look into this.

    Any pics of pinstriped Gen 5’s would be appreciated….especially cutting edge.

    Make sure you DIY it and use a paintbrush instead of tape like the pros do! I'm sure by the 3rd or 4th attempt you'll get the hang of it!

    No paintbrush….I’ll leave that to you. I used tape on my last car and it worked fine. It still looked good until the day I sold the car after 10 years.
