Manta stripe would look amazing on your car, but you WILL get the MOST attention with racing stripes just because they stand out so much....

I think the black manta would look best as others have said, but like you said it wont flow unless you do the grill black to. I think it would look fine.

ok. How about this...I know P told me in the past that i would have change my grill. I made some mods to make it fit my color scheme.Manta w/chrome hood decal and chrome ss hood grill. that way the manta matches the roof and the hood decal brings out some chrom along with the grill.

First off you need to fix that grill, is sticks out way too much that is hurts my eyes

to be on a car that nice. I'm guessing that you bolted it over the stock grill rather than removing the stock one then installing the billet one.

As far as stripes go the black manta would look killer on your car, a close second is the black patch in front of the hood scoop.

Side flags =

Sorry, not a fan of any striping on SOM. SOM is one of those funny colors that is hard to do tricks with. If you like it then ok, but a big NO vote from me. Good luck with your choice.
