I bought some 1/4" red pin stripe with the intention of adding a subtle touch to the grille like an STi mod I saw, but after finishing it, I didn't like it. So, I had a huge roll left and wanted to see if I could use it elsewhere. So I tried what you see above and thought it looked kinda cool.

Here are some better profile pics:

one guy put that red pinstriing around the front grill opening to mimic the vw gti red that their grill has... i think that would look good, save the extra red you have and throw some on the front grill opening (the big one not the one with the emblem)
 
If I was going to stripe something I would run a red stripe along the bottom of the side windows, curving with the window line all the way to the rear. Visually it would lengthen the car and add some color.
 
I think it looks neat, good job.

But also would like a shot of the entire side of the car if you could
 
Interesting concept, but WHY?
Well, I had a bunch of red pin stripe left over after trying something out I didn't like. So, figured I may as well see if there was anywhere else I could use it. I looked at the side profile, noticed some of the red cues in the interior, and figured it might look decent. And if I don't end up liking it, it's as easy as peeling it off.
