I was looking at the new BF GT Stripes and couldn't say I'm the biggest fan of them compared to MKII, so I was wondering what you guys think the best style of stripes is so far?

BF by a mile. The way the ends finish looks so much more professional. Have always loved the FPV range but the BF range easily surpasses the BA range. The pics of the GTP in liquid silver with orange stripes always get me drooling. When I first looked at pics I sent email to FPV telling them they had done a marvelous job. One day I shall own an FPV!!!!!

I would have to say BA mkII, I think the BF stripes look to busy while the BA mkI stripes are really plain, compared to the mkII and BF.

that MKI GT-P has fake stripes. The genuine stripes have the GT-P intergrated into the stripe, not a seperate badge IIRC.
like this: ![]() I like the MKI stripes the best. I'd kill for a blueprint mark 1 with that stripe combo ![]() |

like this: The stripes aren't fake, if the car comes from the factory without them, it gets a silver badge. If the customer wants stripes, they are dealer fitted like this one in the original post. Cam.

It all depends on the colour of the car and the stripes, white stripes on either Bionic or Menace have got to be the pick of the bunch
Phantom stripes on Rapid look Ok too (LOL) ![]()

the ba mk2 stripes look best i think theres too much stripe of the bf ones. Having said that no stripes is the pick and looks the best especially on a white gt-p

i like the BFs best becuase of the way they finish on the rear bumper, i like how the thin lines that run parrallel to the thick one eventually meet. it looks tydier than the BA 1-2.

Not a fan of stripes at all. Initially I thought MK2 was the best but have now grown used to BF and if pushed for an answer it would have to be that design.
