To Pin Stripe or not to Pin Stripe
When I purchased my 99 F150 regular cab short bed it seemed to be missing something. I added a tan pin stripe on the sides to match the interior and that just set it off. Looked good. Now that I have my 2011 F150 regular cab short bed I'm wondering if I should do the same thing. It's candy red with beige interior. I'm not sure if it will look right with the lines of the truck. Also I have the tan 4X4 on the bed which I didn't have on the 99. What should I do??? Pin stripe? Pin stripe and remove the 4X4? Or just not do anything. Any pics of pin stripes and ideas?

I love pinstripes on certain trucks. I'm going to do pinstripes however I'm taking a different approach. I've had pinstripers (painted on) do thing I really didn't like. What I did is purchased regular tape and layed out my own design. I'm on the 4th design in the last 6 weeks. I have 2 thoughts on this. When I find the one I really like I'll have it painted or I might keep it as a tape stripe and I can change design anytime I want.
