T3 Stripes and Rear/Front Blackout - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Ok so I have an all black LS. blacked out everything. I have two questions..

1. I finally decided on T3 stripes (as seen here) http://mnpcustoms.com/camaro/camaroB...eeStripes.html and was set in matte black. Do you think it would be noticeable enough to make it worth it? Or should I go with a silver metallic (like 45th Ann stripes)?

2. Same question for rear blackout.. Was going to do matte black but would it be noticeable enough? Or should I go with silver?

Looking for opinions cause I just can't decide...

black on black will look nice close up, lost at any other distance, I'd choose a contrast - a darker silver?

I was actually considering a "white out" on back and stripes also but wanted to keep it a little sinister..

Darker metallic silver may work

This is a dark charcoal gloss that may work if you could find it in matte:
