Grand Sport red hash stripes or not?
If you have a 2019 Elkhart Blue Grand Sport with RED fender hash stripes, I need your help. I want to install the red hash stripes on my 2019 Elkhart Blue GS, but I am having second thoughts now that I purchased them.
If you have a Elkhart Blue GS with the red hash stripes, would you attache pictures to this thread of your GS. This would help me make the final decision. Thanks. I appreciate your assistance. Art

NOT what you asked for. Please don't do this as I would like to remain 1 of 1.

I'm more a traditionalist so feel GS Hash Strips look good on blue GSs, but not so much on other models/colors.
But like oldC5 states, install them and if you don't like easily removed.

I would say that if you are having second thoughts don't install them. Wait a few weeks. If you still feel apprehensive then you have your answer. Don't let anyone tell you what cosmetic items to install on the car. It's all subjective to you and you only. I mean that sincerely. The car is for you only and what your likes and dislikes are. If you end up with a clown car as perceived by some people based on their opinions? Tough! Not saying that what you are potentially doing makes it a clown car. Personally I think the hash strips would look good. But I don't own your car. Good luck with your decision.

I have a '19 black GS and thought about installing the red stripes on mine shortly after I purchased the car in 12/18. But I decided against it.
I think your car will look either way. I'm sure that helped you decide !!
Good luck either way !!

I vote yes. Since you have the red calipers, I think it would look good!

Check out the C7 cars for sale. There are multiple listings/picture of Blue GS's with Hash Marks that have been sold or are for sale.
Go for it. I have Red Hash Marks on my Blade Silver GS with Red Calipers and Red Interior. Go Buckeyes!!

IMHO the red stripes with red calipers would be a churning hunk of burning funk! Since you have a GS why not change the color of stripes yearly? Good fun!

You could go black hash marks (more subtle)
