Re: Make a white car stand out? Pic didn't work, so I'm hoping I'm not suggesting something you have. But how about some black GS rims? Any kind of accenting will stand out alot since the car is white...

Re: Make a white car stand out? Sorry the pic didn't work?
Ummm, here's how to find it, lol, www.bhamfbody.com go to members and then 1LE there's the pic. My wheels are white. They stand out some, but it's hard to make a white car look like more than just an ordinary car.

Re: Make a white car stand out? Imo, what would really make it stand out, is tint the windows as dark as possible. Then, toss on some berger stripes (i'd say black, but ive been thinkin recently how SOM or Hugger Orange would look), and do the berger panel. Possibly some GS wheels, but i like my wheels to shine, so i say chrome.
If ya dont wanna do all that, just let it be more subtle then. Toss on some GS wheels, maybe do the berger back panel, and fill in the letters w/ some silver. Either would stand out a good bit.

Re: Make a white car stand out? I'm partial to silver racing stripes on a white car, but yeah, some racing/berger stripes sure would do it. That or even hockey stripes would look pretty cool.
Check out 3rdgendecals.com they have all kinds of cool stripe kits, but the trick is not to go over board with em.

Re: Make a white car stand out? Depends on how much you want to spend. If your body is good and straight and your basecoat is intact ie: no scratches, dings, dents, or chips you could go with some subtle light ghost flames in your favorite color of pearl. Either ghost or stand out. If you are not into flames or pearls you could always design your own side inserts on the doors like the early vettes.Or go with a two tone with your favorite color on the bottom.Design your own one of a kind stripes. The possibilities are endless. Use your imagination. Go mild or wild. It's your ride, as long as you like the way it looks you're good to go. Good luck!

Re: Make a white car stand out? sup man, this is onyxxtreme from all the local boards
if you ever wanna go with the "berger panel", i could probably get that done for free
i had a buddy do mine as a favor he owed me, and i still gotta lot of paint left over
and i was thinking, instead of the usual TT2's, i think TorqueThrust D's would look awesome on a white car in 17"
and of course clear corners look good on white, then a decent drop, and it will really stand out
good luck

Re: Make a white car stand out? i like the white wheels you have,i think its original and clean. white may not stand out to much against some things out there but,its a bright color.i choose white on my ss cause it shows off detail better,such as scoops grilles etc.its works well with the body mods i have.(had a black z before and it hid a lot.) try looking at a clean bright white car in the sun and it almost hurts your eyes. sliver,pewter,champange and more understated colors dont stand out as much,where red,yellow seemto atract the most attention.i think dark tint would be a good place to start as it would set the black off in your roof more. willispeed

Re: Make a white car stand out? Yeah, site must have been momentarily down for me
earlier.
I like the idea of ghost stripes on white. And I
would also second the idea of some black rims -
something to break up the overload of white.

I personally don't care for the Berger back panel......I know, everyone is gasping right now......but I live in Alabama, and it reminds me of 80% of the cars that have been hit and have a repair panel that hasn't been painted.
Re: Make a white car stand out? All in all, just make sure its what you wanna do. yeah, we've given some good idea's, but ultimatly, (like the reason you dont wanna do the berger back panel) you got to want the mods done.
But yeah, clear corners would look good too.. maybe even doin a Berger type front grille (paint your stock black, and paint in the camaro, then put like a Stull or something up front). Or possibly even some black Grand Sport style hash stripes too.
Just some more idea's...oh, and i dont wanna see Altezza's on this either! :p Just my .02 aswell, but i say change the wheels. The white is ok, but its too ricer-esq for me...altho lots of ppl are goin w/ 'em now, Z06s would look nice. Dont even have to get chrome, just get some painted ones, and that'll be enough to break up the white.
