with the side flags or racing stripes i do not think it will look any better or any worse. I think you are getting a little bored with your car so give it a shot and see how you like either of them but imo it is pretty hard to improve on the way your car looks allready.

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.

Manta's look awsome, & the crome ram air grill, that would make it pop and stay with the theme. Maybe add double stripes to the trunk to complete the look all the way through the car.

Cool, try adding in the center black decal just to see what it would look like.
It might be a bit much but worth a look.

I know someone who has an SOM SS with a black manta, black insert (scoop) and Flat black berger panel. Looks really good. But it doesn't have chrome wheels....it has the gunmetal 10-spokes...

Not feeling the sidestripes on the orange. The blacked out hood scoop however is badass. I happen to know someone who could hookup the paint too. lol
