New Racing Stripes (and then lost a race!)
I just had these black carbon fiber and fiery orange rallys installed. After picking the car up I was feeling pretty stout when I noticed a new 911 Carrera S next to me at a light. I figured I’d just stay next to him and only punch it if he did, which after a brisk roll through the intersection, he did exactly that. Fast forward a few seconds and let’s just say my feeling stout came to a quick halt after failing to reel him back in and even lose some ground....didn’t realize those things are that quick! Oh well, for around twice the price of the SS, I don’t feel too ashamed...lol. Anyway, I’m sure the stripe combination won’t be for everyone, but I wanted a bit of color to “break up the nightfall”, so to speak and am very pleased with the pattern and color combination. Hope you all enjoy the pics...

I kind of like the stripes. I almost bought a Porsche 911 Carrera S before my Camaro. I will own a 911 eventually, but my Camaro and Corvette make me pretty happy. They don't break my wallet either.

Thanks.... and yes, I enjoyed my C6 coupe for 5 years and sold it 6 months ago. It is nice having back seats again though even if they are child sized

I agree that NGM paint looks good with some color added

The NGM looks amazing with the orange. I may be a bit biased, though.

I'm usually the "less is more" type, but man, that looks REALLY good! Very tastefully done. That might be one of the most original "looks" I have seen as far as stripes are concerned, and you pulled it off extremely well. Color choices are perfect.

Wow....thanks so much! My goal was to make it look like a life sized Hot Wheels car with a somewhat conservative twist.
