There was a thread here before inquiring if a charger body line stripe like the one below could be done (see picture)
Here is what I would like:
Have the stripe be thinner the whole way down the side, and then have it stay thin all the way, including the back door (near the handle) and have it come to a point that would meet up with the quarter stinger. So basically it would look like the top body line in the picture below the only difference would be I would want it to go into a stinger stripe.
Well, I pm'd Revo a ways back, and here is there response:
That can be done, it will take a bit to do. Maybe we could get a GB together for say 3 of them and we could proceed.
So, who else would be interested in this, so we can proceed???

Hmmmm Im sorry but Im just not following what you are proposing, though I am intrigued by this idea. I have been wanting to do a full body line stripe for a while now, just havent settled in on a replacement graphic for my rear quarters.
In the pic you posted above, I dont like the the stripe all the way down the car is connected on the back door where it cuts in like a Z. I like them to be two separate pieces. Though I do definitely like that the rear quarter graphic extends down towards the bottom of the car and then continues back towards the front in a thin body line stripe that runs along the bottom of the doors, thats very nice.
Try to explain or draw on the picture in Paint and show me what you are talking about.

See I really like Mecha's body line stripe, the two individual pieces compliment each other very well. I dont really care for the graphic on the quarter panel, so Id probably do something different there, but I would like it to extend downwars like the one you posted does and then come back across the car along the bottom of the doors. That would be a nice touch.

I'm not a photoshop guy, by any means (don't have the program)
Basically- It will be a thin line all the way down, and connect with the stinger stripe (on the back door)- (the stinger strip is not what is pictured- it is basically the same this as the factory daytona stripe, it just extends further on the back doors, and gets narrow)
With the body line stripe that is already provided- I don't like how it gets fat at the end of it (on the back doors), and I think it would look cool being connected, and following the body line!

Here is a quick (and horrible) paint edit of what I would like (again, I am not a photo editor by any means!) (I'll leave that to the pro's from now on!)

I actually like the foose graphic like it is except I want the rear to go straight back with no drop.
Kind of like a pin stripe. I'm not really feeling the thicker rear.

Something about how it connects with the headlight that I don't like, but it may just be the angle.

Remember, I said I am not a pro at editing! Especially with the basic paint program on my computer! I would like it to go to the same point up front as how they have it on there site now (not right to the headlight!) Kinda like this:
http://www.revolution-motorsports.com/PhotoDetails.asp?ShowDesc=N&ProductCode=CharBody01&PhotoNumber=9
so basically my main focus on what I would want them to change from what they already produce, is only the section on the back doors- 1) don't get thick like it does now, and 2) connect w/ the stinger.

it shouldnt touch the headlight. it should end in a point before the end of the fender.

I have been thinking about a "Brembo red" pinstripe that would follow the contour of that edge and have seen several pictures where the "stinger" lines meet and where they don't. I think I prefer that they not meet. I want to use a graphic to determine whether I like the look and then actually have the pinstripe painted on if I do. If you do a GB and can vary colors and possible design, count me in.

I agree.

I'd so go for it,if you don't like it just pull it off.

I need at least 3 people to go for it! And I never got a price out of Revo- so it would kind of depend on that too!

I actually kinda like the idea in the above pic, but I'd want the back section (which in the above pic is the OEM Daytona piece), to be slimmer and solid black, more like the one in the pic below
.....

But the above pic has the wide piece which goes down and then turns into a thin stripe going forward .....I really don't care for any of that ...I'd want only the stripe starting on the front fender and ending on the rear fender :)

I'm still very interested in getting this done. I'd be willing to give you a deposit so you know I'm not just talking.
