Either one will look nice, but in my opinion the white will stand out more......yes I know I'm biased!!! So far, mine have not been any problem to keep clean and they don't appear tohave faded after a year. However, I keep my car car covered most of the time and it's usually only driven on the weekends.

i recommend painting them on what ever color u choose, paint is alot easier to take care of. i have vinyl stripes and they have been a pain in the *** to take care of, i will definitely paint them back on when i get my new hood.

Here are some pics of my silver stripes for you to look at. Mine are in great shape after a year but I do keep it out of bad weather and in my garage.

Get them in matte black...for my taste are the BEST stripes color for a black car...I believepeople call them "Ghost Stripes"

I have silver stripes and am seriously considering re-striping with white stripes.

I clean, detail my black car very regularly and STILL the silver stripes are becoming stained / dirty looking. For some reason the roof stripes look the worst.
Glad im not the only one. Same exact thing here. The roof is almost BLACK!!! The back of the trunk is perfect but anything that the sun shines on it horrible now!

Really? That's surprising... i figured white would have a tendency to do that moreso than sliver would... i'm being pushed toward the white side ha

I am planning on getting the stripes from Baltimore Street Mods, and i've heard they have quality vinyl, so i think i'll be in good shape there... anyone have BSM stripes and know for sure?

No problems with my white vinyl stripes - like Jason said, if you can keep a black car clean the stripes will be no problem.
