First time I've seen them on a transit, my opinion ( that doesn't actually matter) is it looks better without the stripes, but love the vents

Agreed I liked them without stripes but I feel they don't stand out as much with the strips and didn't want it to be in your face

Better without the stripes, or bring the stripes in at an angles parallel to the angle of the vents?

Probly will take stripes off but not till summer next year as I know I'll have to repaint the bonnet and I'll get more daylight after work

Not awfully fond of their position, I would've had them further down the bonnet, look a little too close to the back centre vent imo

Best of both worlds, remove the stripes and paint the vents white, dare to be different.

a pikey wouldn't drive anything like that, they like the stealth approach, white transit only around this way.

Vents look great, I'd say the positioning was spot on to be honest!
Definitely ditch the stripes though.

I concur...Lol.
The curve of the bonnet lower down got quite severe and not enough space between skin of bonnet and back so they wouldn't fit there
Gotta say a big thankyou to RetroAl for the loan of his polishing mop n paste which enabled me to transform the rattle can finish from looking like Bella Embergs arse to more like Kelly Embergs (an old reference of fittie n non fitted from back in the day )
