Now seriously: Since I'm always objective and never biased I've searched the web and looked at dozens of photos and PR-stuff in order to find something matching, but my efforts were of no avail. There were indeed some editions with black stripes, but they weren't placed that low - and they always went over the length of the whole car, just as factory-stripes are supposed to do. So you were right indeed: It has to be some makeshift-repair with someting like Teroson- on a car that's almost new.
