I just installed the Berger stripes on my pewter SS, and it looks IDENTICAL to the pewter car in the 1st post. I did it after seeing the pic of that car on line. I've also got an older Wings West grille that I like that is also solid black with the Pewter "SS" emblems on it. I think it is striking, and I like it.

Still spraying just down the road from Berger at the Chrysler dealership. I did perform all but one of the color changes there including 10 of the ZL1 cars. Lots of hard work, but the most rewarding of my life. Was really a pleasure being part of muscle car history and the people who own these cars are the greatest to work with.

Another vote for red. It would flow with the grills bowtie and then maybe you can get red edged z28 emblems to match.

I had my 30th/Berger style stripes painted black.

Man I really like stripes on a car but on a black car as clean as yours they look just as good without them. I love a really clean black car.

This dream WILL come true in the future.

Damn, its not the monitor (19" LCD), it was the red at the top of each post. I guess I was judging my reds by that, and since the stripes were lighter, my brain said orange.

I stand by my previous statement of the best color combo being White + Orange.
