Now the question is, would it be too much if I had a stripe down the side of my Platte Forme A.G. skirts (not installed at the moment)?

Probably...

I like how the blue you used all nicely blended together with the Interlagos Blue. It's amazing how simple mods like this improves the ascent of the car greatly.

As for adding the touch to the sideskirt, I say go for it. It's easily reversible anyways!

Not a fan of the the red stripe on the wheels or the lip. Seems like an old trend now.

Thanks!

In addtion to what you have mentioned above, the vinyl wrapping is also easily reversible, if you DIY.

Try the same with an 1/8" stripe on the Performance spoiler. It's cheap and if you don't like it just remove it.
