Default In between answer

Take off the pass side. Then you have Grand sport stripes. That is what they are.

I like the stripes only if you put some chromed wheels on. The chrome will bring out the stripes and the calipers

I think they look great. If you like them, that's all that matters. Personalize as you see fit, it's YOUR car.

Your car looks classy without the stripes.

The stripes give it a more sporty/ racing look.

Bottom line is. Do what makes you happy.

Good Luck

Depends on the look you're going for. Looks great either way. But driver's side only for the stripes.
