Default Stripe Idea for My Car

So I've been kicking around some different stripes for my car lately and I think I finally decided on a theme. I saw a 392 Challenger the other day black with silver stripes with a red outline. I liked it and came up with this,



Oh and I photoshoped my tri-bar into the center too. I can't decide if I like it or not yet.

Anyways, opinions?

I would vote no to the tri-pony location and yes to the stripe. I know exactly the look you were inspired by and I think it looks great too!

Thanks for the input, Josh.

Here it is with the Tri-Bar to the side.

I think that looks fantastic. Personally I like the tri-bar in the center. I always appreciate anything that makes a car look different than all the others like it. Sometimes it's just the little details. I just finished striping ours today. Everybody thought that we were nuts when we told them the plans (Grabber blue car with dual 11" orange stripes) but it turned out fantastic. Once I figure out how to post pics I'll get some posted here.

I like your stripe idea, there does seem to be two different shades of grey in the photoshop. Darker on the bumper and lighter on the hood and roof; I would say the darker grey would be bad ***.

And tri bar pony emblem front and center, very nice.

Nice!

Good colors, and somehow I like the single wide stripe down the center

^Not bias or anything, lol

I think a Mineral Grey stripe with Black or Silver pinstriping would be AMAZING!

Looks good.
Try a tad wider on the stripe, just for fun...

+1 on moving the tri-bar to the center.
