Default Striping the T/A

Well i've been thinking about striping the T/A for a while now but since i've been blacking everything out i've been thinking more about it. I'm not shure what kind of stripes i want and i'm not very good with photoshop. So i don't know what would look best. I was thinking the two racing stripes down the scoops or black bird stripes. My girlfriend also suggested i have the whole scoop area black i'm not shure if anyone could show me what it would look like. here are some pics i have of the car.

i think some blackbird stripes that are the same color as your wheels would look really good.

I would leave it alone but i would suggest lowering it. Make it look tough. Just my .02 good luck though. Looks good.

The brake calipers look really good with those wheels too.

I think some black accents, CETA, and lowering that car would make it even more gorgeous than it is now!

stripe wise BB is the way to go... although they are begginning to get played out but thats because they look so good... needless i will be removing mine when i repaint my car.... but they would set your car off nice... either color of your wheels or black with a ceta mod lower it and youll have one of the nicest t/as around man....

Blackbird stripes look best IMO. They are the only stripes I like on a WS6.

Leave it be.

I HATE stripes, CETA, ect.

I prefer monochrome paint jobs.

Personally i'd do solid rally stripes in a dark gray metallic/anthracite gray color:

And lower it some as well.

Congrats on bringing a year old thread back from the dead, I'm sure by now he made up his mind.
