Your 2 cents on stripes?

So I have a solid black 2015 RS I'm gonna throw some stripes on. Gonna go with a red and black theme, but I want the red to be more of a subtle look rather than the rally stripes 90% of people have. I did a (half-a**) photoshop job on a design I'm considering, just wanna see what you guys think!



P.S. I know the colors don't match perfect and the rear spoiler has a weird see-through thing goin on, but you get the idea of the look. I want something unique that you don't really see a lot.

This would look good if your wheels were black.

Red hood spears would look good.

I hate when the gills are filled in with big wide pieces of vinyl, I like the SLP fade to black fill inserts.

Wouldn't do the whole spoiler red, maybe just a strip on the outside edge

I went with javelin stripes on the cowl and sides w/ gill inserts - all in red (obviously). Also Plasti-Dipped the wheels black & painted the calipers to add to the theme. My Camaro is actually Blue Ray Metallic, but many people say, "At first I thought this was black until I got up close to it." I personally was going for something you don't see every day and love how it turned out. Hope this helps. Can't wait to see what you choose!

Like the hood spears, but not the spoiler or gills. Just my $.02
What about blacking out all the lights, black ZL1 style wheels, and doing this: http://www.bigwormgraphix.net/images...d-copo-lrg.jpg

One of my favorite cars on this site:

+1

But it's not our car. What's the point in trying to be different if you are going to ask everyone what they like?

The hood stripes look sharp as does the gill stripes, but the red spoiler is a bit much.

Thanks for the input guys! The spoiler is definitely too much. Might wind up doin the hood spears and gills and just leaving it at that
