SS's with racing stripes INSIDE(need help deciding)
Here is the car now(halos are now gone)
We are thinking of removing the SS fill-in and putting some racing stripes on it.
At this time we are leaning towards the 35th anniversary stripes that stop on the front bumper. Here are a couple pics of that
I was thinking of those in the original 35th colors(silver/grey) but my wife stated she would rather have them in black as we sorta do have a black/white theme going.
I also like these stripes though(97 SS like). I like how these go OVER the SS scope some
Post up your pics of any stripes on SS's(preferably white) and your opinions!
Thanks

Why not do a combo of silver/black?
Do like a fade, from silver to black going towards the back for those Berger stripes (being on the rear, I dont think you have as much black showing as on the front).
Or on the 35ths, keep the stripes in a graphite/silver so it'll match your rims and headlights (assuming you havent gone to whislters, or another black housing) and make the checkered flag portions black?
Or, you could always do a combo within the stripes (accent stripe in black, everything else silver or vice versa).
But I like the Berger stripes more then the 35ths. I just like how they cover the SS hood better (esp if you dont do the crease portion around the hood. Just leave it solid)

I thought about doing black stripes but after seeing it done it didn't really grab me. I'm very happy I went with HO. I also liked the front that wrapped rather than terminated before the grille but that's subjective. Regardless, the stripes really wake the car up and you'll get noticed more.

I love it the way it is, but white cars with silver stipes/accents are just plain hot. If you did go with the silver 35th stripes, the black on the checkered part would still tie in with the other black accents, as I think someone mentioned.

Your car looks great without the stripes!! If you did do stripes then your car would looks better with a solid black grille, just my opinion.
My vote would be to save the money and keep it the way it is. Very unique looking!!
