Default FINAL Sunoco Cowl Stipe poll w/ last poll's winner vs. NEW rendering...

Well, the leader in the last poll was a solid GLOSS BLACK stripe for the side of my Sunoco Cowl, like the one on Greg's dad's car:





So, now the new poll will be between that option and another one Brian2006 photoshopped up for me after I was inspired by, what I feel to be, a couple of the best striped Camaros on here...

AnimalSS's car:





...and 02camaroburn's car:



I think the silver outline just really sets the stripes off

On the last poll, the runner-up was satin black w/silver outline. There was no gloss black w/silver outline and I wondered if it would edge out plain gloss black...

SO, the FINAL poll will be between:

Gloss Black:



and the new option (not available on the last poll)...

Gloss Black w/Silver Outline:



I'm leaning heavily towards "Gloss Black w/Silver Outline"... What do you guys think?

I'm sticking with Gloss Black unless you run the stripe over the back like on the car shown above.

Just the black. I like the outline but would hate to have to much going on.

Nah dude... IMHO, any stripes NEED to be set off with a small pinstripe.

If you look closely...

That's the decklid off my 'Vette. I know it's not nearly the same thing, but as you can see, every change of color is set off SO MUCH MORE by the striping.

(And, FWIW, the color is off a little in that pic... the orange is nowhere near that "neon" color!)

That's what I've been thinking but I though maybe I was just watching too much "Overhaulin"

The regular gloss black looks great on the pewter car, but on your NBM Camaro, I really feel that the silver outline will definetly help bring out the stripe. I love the color combo on AnimalSS's car. Perhaps you could go with a gunmetal stripe to match your wheels(obviously only if that finish on the Z06's is permanent)?

I think you should do a brighter color the black to contrast the blue maybe silver or white. The reason it works so well on the pewter car is because of the contrast.

I like the gloss black with the silver outline. The silver will match the wheels and it will be different. It seems like thats the option your leaning to also.
