    You guys dont know how good you have it with the availablity of quality sandman stipes. In the 90's when I had to resparay my Contessa Gold HX Sandman, you could not get them anywhere, just signwriters who would use pin stiping etc and they looked crap. Go the stripes.

    I was always of the opinion that if your quarters were a bit ordinary, then the stripes would also hide a few sins, but if you have great lines, then they do look good with out them.

    All I need is a Sandamn again.

    Took me a while to decide whether or not to put the stripes on. Byron pretty sure mine was a DL7 also originally.

    Looks great either way I think. But I wanted the "sandman" I remembered as a kid, and that meant the stripes were required.

    That's the same as the blue van I was talking about. Looks so much better without stripes! I'd rather it be a HJ with the single nose and no spoiler, but still a great looking van. Well done.
