I think the charcoal would look great. The blue is sort of played out.

if it's a 30th TA i'd leave it the original scheme . . . kinda like somebody having a 35th SS and pulling the stripes because they think there played out

just my opinion

I think your car looks great as is. But then again we almost have the same exact car.

My Ride .....has nothing to do with this post or topic , just thought since we were on Anniversary stripes, they can also do SS stripes in any color as well.

I dont like the checkered stripes off the firebird logo, it looks like there is too much going on. I would keep it simple with a grey or black set of what youve got.

I think you need to do something that would match the CETA mod. The blue stripes and black CETA just dont look right to me.
