SOM accents on a white SS
 
ive been thinkin of adding SOM accents instead of black on my white SS, things like the rear camaro letters, the grand sport stripes, and maybe a manta decal, anyone ever do it. thanks!

I can't say I've ever seen that color combo before. Maybe do it like a 35th anniversary car and accent the wheels as well.

i personally think it would look awesome! not to mention I don't think anyone's done it before! how about the hockey sticks with the manta hood thing?

I don't think the cost would justify the results. I think it would look ok, but you'll have to have all of your parts 2 stage sprayed or do it yourself.

well i think cost isnt much an issue if its something i want, and will look good.

what do u mean about the wheels? and i dont care for hockey stripes but i do like the GSS ones

I think it would look nice if done right.

Do it up like an Anniversary Edition....I think it would look badass!! Get some pics and post if/when you do it.

im still debating it. if i ever do it, i would use paint instead of decals, but maybe 35th or ann style strips would look good. i had some pics taken of my car tonight, with all the black accents and i absolutely love them. so its hard to change

i really would like to see that done. I was thinking of doing some accents on my black ta, but i already had silver.

AnimalSS 03-22-2007 10:13 PM

Do it! :nod: I think it'd look sweet as hell, and definitely unique.

stevethepirate 03-22-2007 10:25 PM

eh, i dont think the colors would match. i would do it with hugger orange.

Although i voted yes I agree with stevethepirate on how well colors would match. Basically your taking a flat looking color, white and putting a color on it that is metallic. If anything, orange with white accents would be better. but thats just my .02

im watching a movie, and didnt want to go in depth discussing why it wouldnt work... this is exactly what i was thinking!

Maybe if whatever SOM you put on it is outlined in a thin black.

that would look cool

jbuerke142 03-22-2007 11:57 PM

DirtySnowBird 03-23-2007 12:15 AM
