Grey stripe

I was at the car show,sat in the IOM Zl1,noticed the grey stripe. Man it looks like crap, in my opinion. Even wife says it doesnt match the exposed carbon fiber hood.....should of been black.Sad part, I ordered it and it looks like shit!Whomever came out with the idea to make it grey should be hung! Im sure its too late to delete it, since im at 3000, TPW march 5th. Guess ill be peeling it off!

That's to bad, it will still be badass, if your ZL1 is IOM i would have gone with Black hood and black strip.

I ordered yellow, the exposed carbon insert looks really sweet.Its just the grey stripe that sux ass! I took a gamble and lost, figured GM designers knew what they were doing! WRONG! Should of used a much darker grey stripe!

Won't it come with the stripe kit in the trunk? If so, just don't install it. Surely someone would buy it for near the new price.

And yeah it doesnt look too good at all, takes away from how badass the car is. I would give it a chance, if it looks like that in outdoor conditions, then Id peel it off!

I agree...doesn't look the best. That said ... do people need to be "hung"?
