Exactly, pinstripes look good when separating a two tone or large stripes, but awful when used as just an accent.

Now that I've done sound, cam, suspension and other things like lighting, I want to set it off and apart from some of the others around.

OP I love your car and have it on my saved pic files because of the side vents which I still would like to do. Car looks great! Also on a side note of those two who said two tone should stay in the 70's, typically people who criticize have zero to show or to compete with what you have. I recall when I had a V6 RS and a guy came up and said "damn, you got a V6!" , and I said "and damn, you're peddling a huffy! I'll pick up more babes than you will on that Huffy! Get a freaking life and come back and see me when you're rolling in something and not on something."

Haters are going to hate. They hate us cause they ain't us!

WOW AMAZING CAR!!! Love those rims!

I had Mike at BestWheelDeals who is a club sponsor hook me up. I've only had this a short time and he's helping me look for my next set of 22"s. I got these after a long research session a year or better and then had them hijacked by a chick who admired them, took pics and asked all about them and got a set and joined our club and acted as tho mine weren't the same ones, and posted pics of them basically saying she wanted to show off her new shoes. Guys jumped in saying those are the exact same ones chozn is running. I'm now in the hunt yet again to step my game up, as soon as Mike finds the ones that call me.

Mike pay them no mind empty wagons make the most noise

chozn4service · 03-24-2016, 05:08 PM

Yea same here. Mine gets a lot of chatter, which is kind of annoying to a point. I'm a quiet guy and tend to stay to self. When I stop for guess I don't want to talk car, but get gas and go. I try to pick the areas of least conversation or attention. I've pretty much ruled out any more shows, and if I do go its to look for a bit and leave. Can't deal with sitting around all day waiting for presentations. Now that I'm cammed, I want seat time and cruises.

Niceeee thank you when i first got the car i did not see many of them in 2011.. then as everyone knows they were popping up everywhere. got tried of seeing the same old rally stripes just in a diffrent color.. so i decided to be different and take the jump. that was over 2 years ago and still have not seen anything like mine..

I can see from the OP photo that the tuu* commenters live in the 70's themselves. Plain white t-shirts tucked half-in and half-out? Check. A big blue honking comb sticking out of a pocket? Check.

Nothing wrong with silver and black. Too many fake vents though.

Buddy of mine had this SS that he modded and traded for his C7, I think. He works for Penske Honda and Chevrolet, so he gets decent deals.
The car is black over silver and had a thin dark red pin stripe separating the two colors and maybe a dark gray pin as well. Tastefully done and it hand painted and super thin! OEM grill painted to match as well.
This was at a show at Penske Chevrolet in Indy back in 2012

and his girl brought it to show while he was at work. This inspired me to go 2/tone.
