The truck looks better without the pinstrips.

Not a big fan of the strips on these years. I think they work better on the 73 up trucks. Although if they where factory strips to start with... hmmm.

Well, I'm biased because mine is pinstriped. But when I put on the fleet and removed the stepside I put a few that run to the door and then back along with a purple stripe to tie it all together. Was different stripers. I say just don't overdo it.

There are two small white stripes that run front to back then stop. None on the tailgate. Simple and clean.

Pinstripe can be personnal signature as well. Gives your ride that personnal touch.
Just my .02 worth.

Pin stripe it, but 3/4 of they way down the box swing those lines out into a bowtie and then back in straight to finish out the bedside!
