Default What color of blackbird stripes?
OK. Im starting this new Poll with better pics that i have finally decided on. Im getting a WS9 ram air hood and I cannot decide on which color of stripes to do. Gun Metal Gray, or Red. Im also going to get some new wheels, blackbird style, for my car (shown in the 2nd set of pics) but it wont be for a while. I am also thinking of airbrushing some "true fire" out of the heat extractors on the sides of the hood, something to keep in mind when choosing the color. Ok, so here are the photoshops with the different color and wheel options....

Gun metal with my rims and painted "w" badge now...


Red with my rims and my badge left alone...


Gun Metal with pained "w" on badge to match and wheels im going to get...


Red with badge left alone and wheels im going to get...

IMO black w/red anything looks horrible, do either silver, gunmetal, or white.

I have a set of red blackbird stripes. I never got to use them since my car was totalled shortly after they arrived. I'll sell em to you for $20 shipped.
