suggestions for stripe color on a white convertible
my car at the moment ..
I wasn't sure which color stripe to put on my car.. I was thinking beige/gold or something around there .. what do you guys think?
I've been looking around to see if anyone else have done this, but couldn't find one picture..

RE: suggestions for stripe color on a white convertible
Should you not match the bottom-side stripe color? I think the color of your top forces you to use that or a similar color, otherwise you will have too many contrasting colors.

I have to agree with ilmore --- your side stripe is the color I would do OR you can change the side stripe color... then again I would just remove the side stripe all together and weigh my options afterwards[8D]

I have to agree with keeping the color the same as the side stripes. I would have said black otherwise. The other option could be to tie in multicolor stripe combo. Let say black/gold etc. But whatever, do what "you" want.

spOOfs - do yourself a favor..
get a hair dryer and some goo-gone.. and remove the side stripes..
now you have a blank slate.
Sometimes in life, you have to tear things apart (or in this case, take the loss and remove the side stripes) to really see the big picture...
Heck, you may even like the "clean" look without the side stripes..

RE: suggestions for stripe color on a white convertible
I would like to see racing stripes that match your side stripes. Considering the color of your roof, I think red or black stripes would not work as well, even if you removed the side stripes. Too bad the trusty Stripe Painter doesn't really help with this Vert color combo.
Keep looking at other cars with stripes to give you an idea.
