Default Trans Am with the ground effects painted diff color?

Any pics of a trans am witht the ground effects painted a diff color then the body. I am going to do the ceta to my car and the idea came to me and I wanted to know if anyone has done it before? Maybe even extended onto the bottom of the front bumper where it kinda would have a nice flow. Prolly a dumb idea but it would be unique.

sounds terrible, but you could give it a try. I am terrible at photoshop but I can try to do it, you got a pic of your car and the color scheme?

I always wondered what a black 93-97 T/A would look like with gold gfx, ala 1984 T/A



maybe not the triple stripes above the GFX but the GFX themselves

Ok there is a pic from the side. I was thinking it would look good to continue the color from the ground effects trailing off to the rear quarter panel on the bottom and also along the front and the botton a little ways until it curves around.

Color would be black, since I am also doing black wheels, CETA sails, mirrors, rear ect..

Thanks, not sure how it would look either but just wondering, I want to make it unique. Also trying to find blackbird stripes that fit the Outlaw hood. I think it would bring the car together nicely.

I think it will look like crap. I don't know what they did to this V6 but it does not look good.

IMO, different colored GFXs should only stay on 3rd gen Birds! I had a '87 T/A and it worked for that, but I couldn't imagine doing it to my '95 T/A!

...just my .13 (due to current inflation) though!

On third gen cars it worked. I've seen some 4th gens Birds & Camaros done like that but I really didn't think it looked too hot.
