Opinion poll: Black with stripes or no stripes?

I ordered black w/white rally stripes, but some family members think that I should get it with no stripes. What do you guys prefer?

Of course, I'm gonna get what I like, but just curious to hear your opinions.

I think it would look good, but it's the same thought I had to put into my color combo. Orange with white stripes. I like it, but in the end, I felt it looked too much like a big piece of candy. Don't get me wong, that can be a good thing, but for me it was just too flashy. So I went with IOM with cyber grey stripes.

The Black with Silver stripes would match the Silver painted wheels and the Silver bits in the interior. That has got to be a great combo. How could you loose?

Black & White was a great combo on my '69. I had it that way for years. On a new Camaro it would look good but there are some other choices that will look much better in my opinion.

No stripes looks tough! Maybe even better than the white stripes.

I'd prefer good old fashioned black, but if you really want stripes I'd go with the CGM.

I plan on getting a set of aftermarket flat black stripes on my black camaro along with a flat black panel between the tail lights. I want to buy aftermarket so the stripes extend past the hood.

Maybe I should just get no stripes for now and then get stripes aftermarket if I want to.

I like stripes, but I went without. To much to consider on quality, and it fits in everywhere when there are no stripes.

For me, I like having the HP without the advertisement and flash.
