I've seen the silver on Lantana's SSB in person. They are very subtle and look great.

I'm actually think I'm going to do mine in red. A little bold, and kinda retro.

Well these are actually photos of my Crossfire and I had tried both but in the end decided to go without them.
The ones in these photos are available at Top Flite MonoKote Trim Sheets and those are actually "Aluminum" color not Silver.

Trying different Slasher stripes with pics

seriously though, I am not a big fan of the stripes, but on SSB both silver and black look good.

I agree! GO BLACK! I have mine on the front fender, but was SO close to putting them under my Karmann badges like everyone else.

Definitely adds character.

check out Sennaspirits gallery. he was one of the first to use those stripes. I think he got the tape from an aircraft supply company. I think T-Bird also does a similar stripe for sale.

T-bird does a great job and he includes the word "limited" in Crossfire font. I, however, have not been able to get in contact with him lately.

Hey T-bird, where are you??

Yes, T-Bird, come back! I PM'd him months ago and I know he was away for awhile. He emailed me back like 2 months ago saying he'll respond when he gets back from wherever he was. Still haven't heard from him.

If you CICCI members could persuade him to come back here for a bit, I still want my "Limited" decals!
