Good idea maybe? I have a black ws6. Black with black rims. I just detailed it so it's very shiney! Who you you guys think FLAT BLACK blackbird stripes would look?? I can picture it being badass. The "ram air" where they have it cutout will be shiney black cause of the car so it will be notice able. Has anyone tried it or have any pics of it? I really like the idea. Plus they're only 30 bucks.

I also have a black TA with black wheels. I got my flat black Blackbird stripes about a month ago. Hopefully they will be on this month. I think its going to look badass.

^^thought about your manta idea more, and this guy's idea. I actually think if done right they could both come out looking really good....but maybe satin black instead of flat? Flat seems like it will look too incomplete, I only say this because I have not seen pictures, so I could be wrong....
