Default BLACK ON BLACK

What do you guys think about matt black racing stripes on a black GT/CS(matches the GT/CS stripe on side of car)? I love the look of stripes, but I don't want to go too bold. Looking for some good opinions. Also what should they cost installed?

Thought about it. Decided it made the car 'too busy' (I know - it's black-on-black - how busy could it be?).

I love that big, smooth expanse of deep black paint too much

That being said, although it's not my taste it could still look hot. I'm with you on the 'how do I get it to match the side stripes?' thing. I think it would look strange to have solid stripes nose to tail with the stock 'fade out' stripes on the side. <shrug>

I like the idea of the matte black stripes on the black Mustangs........I think that is a very sleek, seductive look.

Love the matte black stripes on black, but not as much as silver stripes on black.

I had thought about it after seeing Stang Skeleton's car, but I was thinking I'd remove the CS stripe on the side...might be too much going on with both for me.
