Thoughts/Suggestions on new paint/mods plan?
Okay, with a baby on the way and a wedding to plan for, this is more of a wish list/budget prep of stuff that I want to do in the near(ish) future (as soon as the wifey lets me ) For body mods, I was looking at doing the Berger panel mod and putting on an Ultra Z hood and an SS spoiler. I'm wanting to paint the car a nice dark gray, but am unsure of the shade I want. What does everyone think about Spiral Gray vs. Cyber Gray vs. Viper Gray vs. whatever else you can think of? I was also thinking about doing stripes like the ones below, and possibly some Grand Sport fender stripes, but am open to other suggestions. I do want to keep, well make, the car understated since the bright red it is now attracts lots of unwanted attention. What about going with black TTMs vs. the anthracite ones already on it? Would that match the look I'm going for better?
If so, can I just paint the ones I have or would I have to get new ones? Any pictures/photoshops would be appreciated.

that looks like a real good list of appearance mods. To me viper grey looks the best. I think the hockey stripes and the stripes on the side of the hood would look good with these because it would flow real nicely. Do the berger mod in bumper black, i believe that's what it's called. You should do the whistler mod too with the viper grey or whatever color you decide to paint your body. For wheels i think hp evos would look real good.

1998LS1SS, is it just me or does Cyber Gray look darker on the Corvettes?
