Default What color stripes should i get?

I want to change the color of my stripes. As of now i have gray 10" stripes. I have a black stang with black 18" DD bullits.I am torn between 12" silver or 10" matte black with pin stripe. Yes only those two colors lol just need some opinions.

Do you want to be subtle or bold? Both are great in my opinion. I would be happy with either. If your trying to please everyone else you won't.

sounds like my dilema...black 08 gt here...im torn between silver, white or matte black. my only issue with the matte surfaces is they retain scratches and abrasions and you should never wax or polish over matte surfaces. too many issues for me. im leaning towards white

Then I'd advise you take your time and see if you can look at some in person to make sure. Choice can be a bitch can't it?

it is lol. cobraa99 made a great point about the care of matte black, I think i will get the silver an call it a day but just to add a bit of flair to it add a pinstripe.

White on black looks horrible. Looks like a skunk... Don't do it...
