Maybe even think about red or a darker blue. Honestly if you're keeping the theme solid through the whole car, nothing looks horrible on them.

What's your favorite color? I would assume baby blue...

Women, so hard to please lol. Like Awfarley has said, flat black would be cool, or what about a darker blue? You could go with a red and black theme, that pretty much much always looks bada$$.

I've been thinking about doing a darker metallic blue. My favorite color is the blue thats on my car.

ZL1 grille and add javelins. perhaps go opposite spectrum and do a neon orange or something of that sort? Hood spears and Javelins with matching bow ties and gills would look good. If you are thinking about a different color I can photo shop the spears and bow ties in any color you would like

What are javelins?

Maybe you could just add to the current theme instead of changing. Maybe a pinstripe.

I like that.

I don't know what your budget is like but a new grill would do wonders for any look.

I'm actually considering doing black CF hood spears and side javelins. I was wondering how it would look on darker cars like black or the AGM.

Here are a couple different looks that I have had on my Black Camaro..

Just some options.

Those all look sick.
Does anyone have a picture of a black camaro with the cf?

Camaro21 · 06-19-2012, 01:49 PM

One of my pictures above (2nd from the bottom) has a Carbon Fiber Hood painted black to make it look like Carbon Fiber Rally Stripes (but you get the idea of what it would look like with Carbon Fiber Rally Stripes)

SSFury · 06-19-2012, 01:58 PM

You picked that color blue for a reason, instead of changing to another color you might not be thrilled with, "Toughen Up" what you already have. Get a decent airbrusher to paint some smoke and skulls on the blue hood spears.. paint your brake calipers blue, for the love of GOD please paint the chrome part of your Bowtie black.. and while you still have the airbrusher, add some smoke and skulls to the blue part of the bowtie. Thatll serve to darken it up quite a bit, make it tougher, but still the color that reprsents you underneath it all. Maybe some blue Halos.. (but not while driving!!)
Theres always alternatives, it just depends what direction you want to go.

Here is a couple with the Black CF that we sell.

puertoricanfont · 06-19-2012, 07:06 PM

What about get some matte black stripes but put a blue pinstripe around them? That would change the look and it's not that common. Then get some AAC sidemarker and afterburners

skinman · 06-19-2012, 09:46 PM

I like the blue spears. No one else has those on here...

Ponte · 06-19-2012, 11:53 PM

Oh wow, so many great ideas.. I hate having to choose!

kold · 06-20-2012, 12:18 AM

Keep the stripes the way they are IMO and add

spliter + T2 ports = win

I agree, I think we should grab a drink and discuss your options

rberns · 06-20-2012, 12:51 AM

Don't know what your price limit is, but MPD1 Z Force Hood would look awesome.

pump905 · 06-20-2012, 01:05 AM

keep what u haveand add devils tail in the same color

SummoneR · 06-20-2012, 01:35 AM

I'd go with either a darker blue, or perhaps a Bronze/ deep copper metallic stripe combo.

This color on the Subaru looks great in person. It's called Caramel Bronze Pearl.
At least I think this is the color... This color or a darker non pearl would look great on black.

Ponte · 06-20-2012, 10:37 AM

Okay, so... I think I'm going to keep what I have now and maybe add a reverse hockey stripe.

SummoneR · 06-20-2012, 10:52 AM

Be sure to post your results.

This with a more aggressive front bumper and splitter would give you the meaner look your after.

I would love it if it only had the hash marks on one side. Do you have a website or anything that I can browse?

We have a website Nightshadesstl.com but our kits are not up yet.

I can make them with the hash marks on one side or the other or even with no hash marks if you wish.
