Cool 3rd gen hockey stripes...installed

i finally got a cheap set of 4th gen hockey stripes to try out on a 3rd gen. came out ok considering the cars are different, the fender piece could be a little longer towards the door and i still have to cut out the sidemarkers and maybe night shade them to match.

Maybe its me, but I don't think they look right on a 3rd gen.

The inside curve over the wheel well doesn't match up.

They look ok IMO. Not great, not horrible. The part by the nose needs to be longer and then it would look good.

Yeah, if the 'blade' part was centered in the front fender section it might look real good.

I think I would like it better doing what bonzo said, but as it is I don't really like it. Also, align your fender! I had the same exact fitment, it was a pain to get right.

i know exactly what u mean, they came pre cut tho so i couldnt move it up anymore, i guess 4th gen's have a shorter fender.

it was just a trial, im waiting for someone to sell 3rd gen ones... someday

ted, lol i hate that! from morons puttin the car on a lift from the pinch weld, they got totaly f-ed up on both sides

The 4th Gen "Bow" over the front fender well kills it. The idea is right just the application is wrong. I would def pick up a 3rd gen specific set soon.
