White lettering on tires was the thing back in the day, nothing wrong with a little 'retro' there.
As far as the striping, of course, it's all about what you like, but I would've reversed the color. I would've done white stripes and the matte red pinstripe. The matte pinstripe would give a sense of depth to the white stripes, and tie the splitter in with the rest of the car. The big white stripes combined with the white lettering on the tires would really solidify that 'old school' hot rod look while not stealing any attention from the sleek modern muscle lines of the car. Just my humble opinion. |

Is your car done up to honor Craig Sager from TNT NBA coverage that passed away?
Sorry man but I have to be truthful, I think your car looks absolutely hideous |

I think it looks pretty darn good....except that I don't like the white stripe on the front fascia extension, it adds a white horizontal line that doesn't belong there, it clashes with the vertical lines you have outlining your stripes. If it were me, I'd probably take off all of the white striping, it's not needed.

I do however like the tire lettering. I bought some for my car just haven't put them on yet. I figure if I hate them, they will be gone with the next tire change. |

Delgado- I personally don't care for the stripes but everybody has their own buttons to push. I like the lines of these cars with NO stripes, they are so sleek and have "hips". Having said that: Take the white pinstipes off the splitter....

While I appreciate power colors as much as the next guy, all I can see is the flag of the third reich when I look at it :/ Like many other people have mentioned, the satin-on-gloss is just a little confusing to the eye, and adding more white will make the car look too cluttered IMHO
All that being said, I would do any of the following: Black Vinyl wrap the mirrors White stripe in the door "wedge" like the SEMA performance car from 2016 Swap out your nostrils for white ones White license plate frame White SS badges < Id almost certainly do this I would personally avoid anything too close to the mirrors (e.g. the "side spears" from GM) itll make everything look cramped |

You should make the whole car a white accent like mine. My SS used to be red too...

In my humble opinion...
1. The satin-flat red vinyl on top of the other red doesnt look right at all. Kinda overwhelming. 2. +1 on the black outlines. 3. I think the letters on the tires look awesome. Either way great looking car! |
