Default One more stripe thread

OK, i know the threads on striping our stangs have been beat to death, but i need help ASAP. I am taking my sonic blue '05 into the paint shop on monday morning to get her striped (two 12" with a 1" gap, bumper to bumper). I thought that i was set with wanting satin silver stripes, but when i went in the other day to look at the samples, i started to look at the tungsten gray color. Now i am stumped and i dont know which one to do. Do i want the lighter, or darker stripes? I would appreciate any opinions, and if you have pictures of either of these color combos that would be great! I think im leaning towards the tungsten, but i hate second guessing my decisions. HELP!

That's like my 06 Vista Blue and I would go with the darker. I'm thinking of going black to match the top (convertable)
I'm sure what ever you decied will look cool.

I like Performance White with a Blue Car, this is more "retro", I've never seen Blue W/Silver or Grey in MC heyday. Silver would look OK, especially if you were a Cowboys fan. Go with white, some may not like it, BUT.,,,,,, NO ONE will hate it.

PLEASE......Just do what you like! It is your car, if you like it who cares what everyone else thinks. Asking for opinions of what to do to YOUR ride is like asking your friends if you should ask out some girl. One will say HELL NO!!! and then jump on the idea when you bail out.

Don't flame him bro, it is just that too many times people are asking opinions of other members about color combo's.

Really it should be your choice alone. You have to live with it.

Don't get so pissed...

just a comment to consider if you have painted bullit wheels- how about stripes matching the centers to 'tie it together'? To be different, you could also always have centers painted to match your stripes too...
