Yea definetly silver with the blue, take our advice for what it is, with these types of cars its pretty easy to "rice" them out. have you taken a look at some blue member cars.

you wanna move away from the chrome look, it's just out of place these days and honestly white wheels would be worse then chrome. can you get pictures of the silvers they have? My first car was a 96 Tahoe that was Midnight Blue which is if not exactly pretty damn close to the color of your car, so I have a good idea of what works well with that color.
if I've still got photoshop on my desktop I'll give an attempt to mod the "after" pic of your car to be more in the what I was thinking line later tonight.

For the tails, I would look into the "Import" style is what I call them. They basically look like candy corn to me where the outer edge is Yellow/Amber, red then white I think. There not cheap but there different than the stock tail lights. If I can find a pic of them, I'll post up.

I suck at it too, I've barely used it and only a few tries before, this was the most advanced things i've done with it. hardest thing was cut and pasting then resizing the wheels.

Oh ****, I didn't realize you changed the wheels too. Haha sorry I use my phone when I'm on the forum. And thumbnails are like really small haha. But I zoomed in and it looks real nice. I thought about solid spoke wheels. But those look really nice. Damn I keep changing my mind. Haha, idk whether I want chrome wheels, aluminum wheels, or gun metal grey.

I would say no chrome or polished wheels, stick to the silver, grey, gunmetal shades and get the stripe in the same color as the wheels. something else you can do is use masking tape to layout the stripe and spray on a temporary stripe using Plasti-dip (they have a grey one) and see if you like the look before you fork out the cash for a full on vinyl piece. this way you can try a few different stripe designs.

I did think about blacking the car out. But idk. It's been done a lot around here. It's a hard choice. I think adding color and chrome will stick out in the crowd. But I'm open to opinions.
