Summit white w/ matte white stripes?
So I've seen Black with black matte stripes, which look amazing. I was wondering what Summit White would look like with matte white? I'm not looking necessarily for ghost stipes or Pearl over white. I wonder.... would it look equally sick as the darker colors do or would it look lame?
Any photoshop wizards want to take a shot at this?

This forum is a little slow.

Wow, I was afraid of that. Doesn't transfer well to pictures it seems. Short of doing it, seems like there's no real good way of knowing what this will look like.
Thanks for your effort! I really appreciate it!

I have seen it done in a light silver and it looked awesome. Look up GO BIG OR GO HOME. She has SS stripes done in a light silver and it looked amazing. I think she even has the same wheel combo.

I'm most likely going to paint the same black matte finish hood and hockey stripes under four or five coats of clear. I'd like to be able to buff and polish w/o having to tape off the vinyl stripes.... but that brings a different issue to light. How can I have both gloss and satin paint on the same car and use a buffer or polisher? Wouldn't there be "bright spots" on the satin/matte finish? If that's the case, maybe I should go with pearl after all?

Hey, Thanks for that BooSSted. Do you have any more pics, or direct me where I can see more of this car?
BTW, I don't think the stripe on the roof matches the hood. Oops, LOL.

Are you asking how matte grey stripes would look instead of black?
Actually, this gives me an idea for a new thread!

I searched for that, is NS-1 Stripes the user name or the thread title? I didn't see it.
