Opinions of the new stripes and spoiler

Just posting a link to where I have a couple of pics posted in the IOM thread - New stripes and Unrestricted Motorsports rear spoiler. What do you guys think?

I think the spoiler is ugly. Stripes are ok.

The stripes are understated which brings out the overall color. The fin is not understated at all. Just doesn't look right on the car with that little flip on top. A real wing would look better.

imo, need a drop. Spoiler makes the car appear taller as well...

Thanks! Should mention that these are a type of ghost stripe, so the intent was to make it subtle and different. From different angles it tends to disappear and blend in with the base color (hard to capture the effect on a camera). Have not heard this spoiler called ugly before!? But to each his own I guess, LOL. Its the closest I have seen that replicates a nice blend of the 1st and 2nd gen spoiler. The spoiler is really not as tall as it looks I think maybe I should have stopped the rear stripe at the base of the spoiler, therefore it would have looked not so tall.

They look just like the same colors I had my stripes painted. Are they sunset orange and who did the paint work? Thanks, looks good.

sent you a pm! Keith Scott of Premium Auto Restorations of Derby KS did the paint work and Chad Ward of Chad Wards Artistry did the pin striping outline around the SS on the cowl (subtly outlined in orange). More pics in my profile listing.

I like the stripes a lot! Not so sure about the spoiler, but I still haven't seen one that flows well with the car in my opinion.
