Well, I 'd imagine the old pinstripe is removed in a similar fashion to decals...No real advice for you there, but I can tell you that I have a dark green Accord with the stock pinstriping as well, and I think it definitely adds some character to the car....but get rid of the tan, go with silver for sure. I'm prepping some Z3 style fenders up right now that I got used off of eBay, so once those are good to go I was thinking of doing the same thing. Let me know what you end up doing, and post some pics if you can!

id get a really big dragon sticker on each side and have it breathing flames and put red neons on it and a carbon fiber hood with a dragons head and then put a nice body kit and a exhaust with a 5 inch tip and for extra hp throw a nice sticker on the window all that adds about 53 hp

If you remove the pins there will likelybe a line remaining because the paint beneath the stripe will be a slightlydifferent shade than the rest. This will have to be machine polished if you choose not to renew the pinstripe. I think silver on the decal.

Personally, I'd take the pin stripe off. I would assume that it woud kind of be like de-badging. Removal of the stripe would require paint/finish care.

I have a silver accord.. i took off the pinstripes... it was really by accident i was powerwashing it and they started peeling off so i just kept hitting them and got them all off... This was the easy part. The glue was still on the car so i used some rubbing compound and someREAL elbow grease and got it all off... looks great now.. the pinstripes just look soo factory to me. But now i cant even tell they were on there !!
Gook Luck !
