SIM fashion emergency
I'm taking the Camaro in for a custom rally stripe paint job tomorrow. The problem is what color stripe to get. I keep going back and forth between white and cyber gray for the stripe colors. I'm driving my wife insane and I'm about there myself
Have any of you guys or gals seen an SIM with any of the above colors? I've checked out the stripe thread but sometimes pictures don't do it justice. Help please!!! |

I did Cyber Gray factory vinyl and they look sharp as hell. I think the metallic look goes great with the SIM.
I think black painted would be fine, though. I didn't like the pictures of white rally's on SIM I've seen here. |

Take a look at IOM stripes - they really look great and it is a very rare combo. White will not offset nicely from the SIM - cyber gray would be the better choice of the two you mentioned. What I have not seen anyone do is a red on SIM.

The white on SIM pictures from Toronto last winter on the CTF car were outstanding.

My opinion...
CGM stripes for sure!! I absolutely love the contrast, and those two colors compliment each other perfectly. The white on SIM combo just doesn't look right to me... |

I will be doing a cobalt blue ghost stripe just like GLAMBERT1's.. it will be more metallic pearl than blue.... Good luck choosing.. Go find a SIM hood in the junkyard and let them play with it.. Lots of GM's have used this color.. That way you get to see it before you scratch it..

While SIM was never my favorite, I stopped dead in my tracks when I saw this SIM Camaro with Cyber Grey stripes to compliment the ground effects. The CG stripes also pick up the grill and other plastic which is about that color. Take a look at these, I think that CG stripes on SIM is the best choice.
