I had zero interest in doing anything with the grill until I saw your heritage grill. That's tight! Will that fit an SS/RS?

I had an extra peice of the Rally Stripes that im "thinking" about putting on.
I love the look of no stripes once i got it. but i also already have stripes about to go on. So now im Torn. So here are some pics of the extra bigger peice and layed it out on the car Whats everyone think. High Gloss Black, Ultra Metallic silver Flake http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...2/DSC04104.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...2/DSC04119.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...2/DSC04115.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...2/DSC04111.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...2/DSC04110.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...2/DSC04120.jpg |
It looks awesome. Congratz! I bet the stripes will look real nice. I like the metallic flake.
|
I think the stripes will look FABULOUS! What's the worst that can happen - if down the road you really decide - ya know I want NO stripes - you just peel those buggers off :)
|
LOOKING GOOD BROTHER!!!! I chose a Dodge color (Brilliant Black Crystal) for my painted stripes with a ton of that flake as well they are awesome!!! Enjoy!!!
