Looking for opinions - Possible paint job

Before I get started, please bear with me here; I realize the quality of the pictures and the colors are horrible... but it's the best I could manage with what I had to work with lol. If anyone with some spare time and photoshop skills, would like to see what they can do, PM me or let me know!

That being said, I'm waiting on my Imperial Blue Metallic 2011 Camaro 1LT to arrive and have been toying around with designs I'd like to do for the paint job before I put the clear bra on it.

I saw this thread yesterday (http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=146557) and it gave me an idea; why not do the opposite. Everyone's blacking out parts of their car, why not try "whiteing" out mine? Here's what I managed in NFS Pro Street:

-White out the inside of the grill/headlights section
-White/Silver stripes following the air dam's curves over the hood
-White/Silver fender hash stripes
-White out the tail lights

Personally I think the white & silver contrasts amazingly over the IBM. It looks alot better in-game when I can move the camera around and see the dark blue and metallic blue reflect as light hits the paint.

Let me know what you think! Personally I think it looks classy, it stands out yet it doesn't seem to be overly busy. I also think it would be very unique. I'm definatly putting halo's on it ASAP too, I think the blueish halos would stand out through that white trim. I'm also fairly certain nobody's ever done it... which means 2 things; either it's retarded or nobody thought about doing it.

So lemme know!

A) Retarded
B) Unique & Interesting; has potential!
