    I think, HX DX5 would suit best. hard to say.

    But also HZ DY4 and HZ DX5 would look ok too.

    Pitty there isnt a stripe combo that was whites and greens!! =)

    Not sure about the purple as the outside colour of the stripes though. Against the purple of your ute. HX DX5 is exactly the same but the two colours are swapped.

    Not 100% sure if we will be doing DY6 at this stage or not. There maybe some printing issues with the colours.........

    HX DX5 .... plum, purple blue
    HZ DY6 .... purple, plum, blue

    I think on a purple car the HX DX5 would be better with the plum outline breaking the two purples....

    Sorry I should say what the colours are when I talk about DY and DX etc. I get it all the time when people ring me about stripes.

    Thats too much purple. Hang a handbag on the mirror and it'd look like the teletubby with the questionable sexuality.

    Give it some highlights. I believe Jason has these in stock at the moment?

    i think you may be onto something there - too much purple.
    i was also thinking light blue / dk blue / blue like HZ DX 5
