While we thank that this driver was uninjured, I wanted to ask those whose cars have pin stripes... does your pin stripe have the Honda logo in it?

I dont have stripes but we do put the H on the ones we put on.
Just depends on the dealer, some do and some dont.

pin stripes :thumbsdow

The first dealership i went to (gillman in Houston) had handpainted pin stripes on every car (100-200+) as well as tint with the brake light cut out :thumbsdow
The first thing I asked when I looked at the car was if the stripes were removeable. The salesman said yes, the detailer has some special solvent that will take it off.

I left.

My accord has pin stripes w/o the logo when I bought it. They were quickly removed. :D

The company that does the pinstriping for my dealer charges $25 (our cost) for the stripes with the logo. Its $12 for just plain stripes, that are usually marked up to $199...

I think pin stripes are ick. The dealer I bought my coupe from doesn't do any accessory adding to most of their cars on the lot. Almost all of them are stock off the shipping truck and stay that way. They don't even add those horrible dealership stickers to the back of your car, they give you a license plate frame instead. I hate it when dealers add stuff like pin strips that you don't want. I can see tints being done as an already added accessory, but not much else.

I would have be so pissed had they done the dealer trade and my car arrived with pin stripes. Pin stripes should warrant a discount, not a price increase.

IMHO :)

pinstripes are ugly and wear out and start looking like crap over time. Why would anyone want a sticker on their car?

Ours is not to reason why...

It was just a simple question, I had never seen that before except on much older cars from the seventies. To be honest I like it, though I loath pin stripes. IF it is an after market company, then I dont want it. but if Honda is marketing these I might be able to find a place for it on my car
