Black stripes on a Silver Cobra???

[SilvaCobra03]

so I'm paying a custom graphics guy $150-175 to put some stripes on my car.

I'm thinking black stripes on my silver cobra... starting in the hood scoops then back up to the windshield then parallel across the hood then down the trunk and back end.

what do you guys think?

I can also choose to just go straight normal stripes but I've seen them on other stangs and those look weird through the vents.

any picts of how this will look, or perhaps a photoshop of what it will look like in all the different variations?? (I have a silver 10th ann, and would like to see how this looks as well...)

I think Ford blue GT-500 style stripes would look cool. I've got a silver one too but it would be a bit too flashy for me. (personal preference).

blue will look bad when it hits those red lights on the tail end... Im gonna go play with photoshop

I've seen an 03 here in Hawaii, silver w/two black stripes. It looked bas@$$!!! I say go for it:rockon:



This is coming from someone with maroon flames on his 03!!!:beer:

Blacks stripes and then slam it w/ 18 inch black fr5oo's!

I have a silver 03 also and would like to see pictures, might someone be able to photoshop some?

 

[jcayer]

still subscribing in hopes of someone posting some photoshops of what they will look like.... (perhaps we could get a little photoshop request thread if someone knows how to use photoshop.. I have photoshop, but don't really know how to use it well yet... nothing that advanced anyway...

How about black convertible with gold stripes (not shiny gold, but like the old GT350H's) starting from the hood vents back. The car has parchment top and seat inserts.

What do you think?

Red, not black. Red like the Shelby Series 1's.

For what it's worth: I'm a professional free-hand pinstriper, and my dark shadow-grey '03 has no pinstripes.

Haven't seen one with the stripes starting at the hood vents.
Good idea!

I vote no stripes.

My dad had a 70 SS chevelle 454 ls6 as a family car when I was growing up

It was silver w/ black strips

It still has a special place in my heart. I now have a silver cobra, but I don't think I will add any strips to it, because I prefer the clean look these days

But if your going for a more agreesive performance look, that will be a great combo

LETS SEE SOME PICTS!

Anyone good with photoshop? you can use the picts off my www page if you need a silver car to photo-chop on...

I would have to say leave it without the stripes. It seems like everyone is running racing stripes on every kind of car. IMHO I think they are over done. Just my .02

 

[jcayer]

well, thats why I wanted to just see what it actually looked like... in certain cases it *could* look awesome...

 

[svtxchinoy]

How bout Dark Grey stripes to blend in with the silver a little more?

I might be able to conjour (sp) up something if someone could host a picture.
