Default Ideas to liven up the exterior

My car is a black 98 SS. I have chrome ROH RT wheels, Xenon body kit, Rear fillin, and billet grille. I'd like to make it stand out a little more. I can't really think of many more options. I can do stripes, fender stripes, berger back panel. Any other ideas? I'm not sure about the fender stripes or berger panel. Isn't that kinda like a GT mustang putting saleen stickers on? Thanks for any idea or pics.

Here is an idea i tried since i have a black car and ended up really liking it. It's a pewter pannel w/carbon fiber letters/badging.

my vote would be for either a ZL-1 or Berger stripes. Those look so kickass to me.

I saw a guy at a car show that had the scoop outlined in silver and the on top of the fin, just running along the very edge of the top of it...looked nice!

You could do large "Berger style" stripe or small accent stripes (like I have).. since your car is black the black rear panel would be of little gain.

Oh, Berger didnt invent the rear black panel so dont worry about the poser thing.. Same with the Berger stripes, those are retro to the old GM Z28 stripes

Other than Paint and wheels its hard to digstinguish the exterior without making it too busy (ie, huge spoiler and such).. good luck

You could always get emblem overlays, in the color of your choice.
