Default Remove or not?

These are some old pictures, and im planning on taking some soon after my cars presentable. Im wondering if i should remove the rocker stripe on the side. However i want you to take into consideration i have a black GT hood stripe, and my cars *** will look like this.

The things ive added since then, lowered, GT stripe, tinted windows, an anntanae, 232 emblems, dropped back the spoiler,plus a GT scoop and the very first picture is how my rear is going to look. If someone wants, could you maybe photoshop it without the stripe? I might add some other type or emblem or something later but idk.

I'd remove the stripes because I'm not a fan of it and looks cleaner, like the first picture.

Use a hair dryer and razor blade and then some wax to remove the residue left behind...

NO RAZOR BLADES !!!! Hair dryer and one of those plastic body filler spreaders and some Goo - Gone to remove the glue.

Just take your time and pull the stripe slowly as you are heating it. Good Luck!

Yea man, get rid of the stripes. You said that first picture is how your car is gonna look.. and after seeing it, I'd say get some smoked taillights as well.

Im going to go with smoked for sure, along with side markers, im just figuring out the budget atm. I know a place that will do em for 100$ for actual clearcoating them tinted. So i might invest a bit and go with a better solution than vinyls. However standmods price is kinda hard to beat. 80$ for side marker, rear tails, and the third brake light. Anyone got pics of smoked tailights, or blacked out?
