Looks great. Don't fear the tape stripe. I just pulled mine off last night. Peels right off. I didn't even need to use a hair dryer or adhesive remover. Just peel off, and put a coat of polish/wax on the freshly exposed area. As has been said, you will notice it right up close, but it will eventually disipate after some weathering, washing, buffing etc. Looks so much cleaner without it.
