Default Pewter SS with stripes come in

You guys think I should get stripes? I was looking into 35th stripes, but not the ones that go all the way down the front bumper. They cut off right before the grill. Anyone have a pewter SS with any kind of stripes? Also, the stripe with flags on the bottom of the doors looks kinda clean on some colors. I've wanted a manta on the hood scoop, but I don't think I want to go that route anymore. Here's how my car sits right now.





Here's the strips I'm talking about.

I like how my car looks now (simple), but I want to see how they look with stripes. Let me know your opinions everyone.

EDIT: I know you guys like my address # 346 (ci) LOL

I saw add them using the vinyl decals. If you dont like them, take them off.

I would add them if I had your car.

Here's mine, they are "30th Anniversary style"; I'm not a big fan of the door stripes.





Here's an older pic since you have ZR1's.

I say no. Your car looks great as is. To tell you the truth I wish I could remove my stripes because after a while a clean look is just more appealing IMO

I would go with the Manta decal on the hood, cause it matches your current theme of the car. CLEAN!!!! The 35th stripes would be a nice addition but that simple clean theme would be no more. just my opinion...But the car is clean as fu-k!!!!

Do manta as others said, but no to stripes. To much or too busy.

I like mine...tried to get the ghost like appearance without having to spend the cash for paint. I voted for them but to each their own.

<<<<<<< look at the pic. can email more pics if you would like to see the full version of them.

Ive been thinking about a hood manta on mine. No way I would do stripes though.. just a bit too much IMO.

Loving the glossy black berger panel on your car too... That thing is CLEAN!
