Black and white is overdone. Go with blue and white. Like a reverse of my car.

Go with blue blackbird stripes and blue accents such as blue calipers.

I love your ride WhiteStripes, the stripes you have are also a good idea. As far as blue calipers go, I'm not sure i would like the look of that, does anyone have a pic of a white t/a with blue calipers?

Either A) black stripes from the front to back with black overlays for the doors, nose and back bumper with window tints with a black CETA

or...

B) Blue stripes from the front to back with blue overlays for the doors, nose and back bumper with window tints and black ceta, (not sure how blue would look)

either way it would look killer!!!!!!!!!!

on the calipers, i think calipers should be three colors, red, black or polished, . blue would look a lil over the top and cheap

Im putting some balckbird stripes on my with my white t/a and im goin with red pin stripes and a black center, i think that blue pin stripes with a black center would real good too, then put some balck over lays on the emblems, also the blue would only look good if you painted your brakes blue, just an throwin some stuff out there.


Tint the Windows!!!

IMHO... blue vinyl on white doesn't look that good... black is the way to go on white cars... Its popular for a reason... it looks awesome. There is already so much black on the car that the small black stripes tie it all in very well...

I also wouldn't want to do an anniversary clone or a clone of their color schemes... but thats just my opinion

above comments are in regard to vinyl.... custom painted accents are another story entirely.

No stripes, none, nada.......The TA has such beautiful lines and curves that the stripes only take away from it. I would stop at the CETA, IMO

Either blue or black looks hot but, for me the stark contrast of black and white is the best. I'm not so sure of mixing both colors in the stripes. Whatever color you choose you can't go wrong with the blackbirds and CETA. I get a ton of interest and compliments on my car just from having BB stripes and a LOTB badge.
You might want to try !moulding also. I tried just for the hell of it and love it so much better now. If I could only get off my *** and get updated pics

I got the charcoal metallic stripes on mine and I love them. Got them customized a little bit to be different but the look awesome on my car and I think they stand out pretty good on my white WS-6. sorry for the dirty wheel well and dirty garage.

Very clean sir. I'm definately done for the BB stripes... I just need some money... CETA is a guarantee and side molding is going to happen very soon.
