Default SC430 Stripes on side of car?

I would like to put some black stripes on the side of my 2003 White SC430. Does anyone have pictures of stripes on the side of their SC430? I was looking at the car today and space under the door seems small. Maybe near the bottom of the door?

I am talking about stripes like these that are on my 2009 Mustang.

I would like to break up all of that white on the side of the car. Here is a picture of my 2009 Mustang, It was just too much orange when I bought it!

Grab a few rolls of blue painters tape and play with it (different line thicknesses, heights, how does it look in the contoured places). It's blue, but it will still give you are real world view of how it would look.

Once you have down the look you like, measure and have a vinyl shop cut the pieces you want in the color you want - and if you wind up not liking it or wanting something different, it's still easy to remove.

An there's a reason for that

Cobra, yes. Muscle car, fits.

SC430, not so much.

Just my 2 cents!

Go for it. Something subtle yet noticeable like this 911 GT3 is a good look.
