New side Stripes : ) for my Ds/W

I got some new side stripes yesterday. Kinda unique in my opinion! I went with two half-inch stripes near the rocker panels to accent the car and visually lower it without disturbing the CLEAN look of Dark Silver : )

sorry about the crummy phone-cam picture.

What do you think?

Glad to see the Original DS thread back on the radar as I'm not the joining type.

Update:
Stuff you can see: Aerokit, ATS 18" Wheels, Clear Rears & Corner Markers, Belt Line Black, Cooper Side Vents, Black Scoop, Hella ff200 Driving Lights

Stuff you can't see: 15% ET Pulley, Invidia Exhaust, K&N CAI, Hot Coil, 22mm 3-way RSB, TSW Engine Strut, CF Front Sturt Bar, DIY Rear Seat Delete and MINIFini Armrest

Still looking good even at 112,000 miles and 4 years of NC twisties.
