Darker silver/metallic grey stripes, match the wheel centers to it, black interior with some of the strip color accents, polished lip on the wheels.??

This was my original plan for the car exactly what you just said, and I have thought about this for the last couple days and I'm going to stay with the silver for the strips I will post pics shortly. thanks for everyone that posted a reply with your opinion.

That color looks so good, I would actually hesitate to put stripes on there, especially the same old twin SS stripes with the 1/8" outline. Not cool enough for that car IMO. As far as color and stripe selection, you're making a strong case for hiring a designer to sort out the color and maybe throw you some ideas outside the box but my vote is a silver if you can't live without stripes. If you want to see it on paper, let me know.

I'm wondering how it would look with black stripes with silver edges? I also agree that it might be a good time to consult someone with knowledge of color combinations.

How about flat black.

What about a green ghost stripe...something just a hair off what you have. Subtle but there. That would allow you to go with whatever interior and wheel choices you want but still give you the racing stripe feel.

SEMI Mat Black -- not flat black - and not glossy either.... just flatten the black so you have some neat contrast.

Two tone interior -- rich caramel brown with black accents. Paint the dash the green or maybe the window trim - and flat that out too... so it doesn't "glare". Mercedes "WEAVE" carpets - with the base of caramel - with black fibers woven in....

No opinion other than that.
:cheers:

Sorry semi mat black your right not flat black. I think a green dash would get real old real fast. Thats my 2 cents from a new guy.

Well I decided on staying with the silver. But the strips are on hold right now. I took a few guys advise and I'm having one of the site artists draw me up a few options and renderings of the car.

Now that's what I'm talkin' 'bout!!

Good choice! Better to see it - live with it a bit - then go for it knowing that is exactly what you want.

Smart!
