Default Going with a black and blue theme.

I was thinking about going blue manta on the hood, Blue SS emblems and doing the interior lights to blue LEDs In my head it looks good but in real life?
Anyone follow this theme? Here is a pic of my car pretty stock looking..

Or should I just do the whisper mod, clear lenses and a drop.

Nate

If you have pics of a black and blue theme post up please.
I know I need new rims but college = lack of funds.

blue and black looks slick. just make sure you use a nice blue not a really bright or turquise blue color.

if youre gonna be doing the interior as well in black and blue i think it would look good. heres one of our own members... not exactly the same thing you wanted but might give you an idea of how the colors mix together

thats exatly what I'm looking for.. thanks..

Edit: I looked on 3rdgendecals.com at the manta piece. Does it really look like that? Its all shiney like it is painted on and not an actual overlay. Sorry for the newb questions I just haven't found the answers though searching.
