not a fan of colored stripes on black.. maybe a gunmetal or white or silver.. but not a color
even rally stripes in general on a balt can be mehh. looks good if the color combo works well otherwise it looks off to me

Not really full rally stripes but their stripes. I'll trade ya for your straight white hood and trunk once you get the new ride if you're interested lol

i HATE rally stripes.
but your rims set the stripes off very nicely and i preed in my pants a bit........
with your white one, go with what you feel, Ive always been a fan of white with a dark metallic purple accents. but the purple stripes would look AWFUL!!!! personally, if your going white keep it clean, no stripes keep it nice and subtle. i dont think white is a color that needs messing with.
what i think you should do is keep the black balt, then with your rims throw another color on the inside of the spokes or a different color lip. use white or silver there. or find somethign so abstract that because its so ugly it looks good. then throw that new color somewhere else into the car, but just a little bit of it. like a line of it here or line of it there
Teal/Turquoise somewhere along those lines seem to be calling my name.

IMO the White with Hugger Orange is icon Chevrolet. plus what bow tie fan doesnt like hugger orange?
i like hte stripes but only on the hood and trunk, and they have to have the pinstripe around them Example:
but i would have them closer together
and a little further down the trunk, to about the inward bodyline
and dont forget. if you're going for the 69 camaro look, the stripes on the trunk are spaced out further than the stripes on the hood. and cur out the stripes around the emblem's

boy that ricer word is thrown out there alot..... i guess any camero ss, nova ss, grandsports, s10 extreme's, or plain old any car with stripes have now become ricer's..... amazing....... if you ask me any car with a mod that was inspired by a import is a ricer.... lol lets get this straight dude ricers are guys who put huge soup cans on the exhaust, huge spoilers, stick on vents, or tiny ass tires with huge wheel gap... or simply 90% of honda owners lol.... if we all modded our cars like you dont you think cars would get boring?
JUST SAYING.....

Says the moron who thinks everyone should just run 1000cc injectors and call it a day cause the ones we use already are shitty. From the posts I've seen you make you have no reason to discuss anything regarding cars.
We're all "ricers" you ignorant ****! We're modifying 4 bangers to be flashy an attention getting. Putting stripes on cars is the complete opposite of rice though, it's been used for decades on muscle cars. It's not like he's asking about putting a giant mural of a geisha girl on the car. Obviously no one gives a **** about your opinions.
On topic, I like the rally stripes, I just don't have the patience to lay vinyl or paint that precise. I just did Grabd Sport stripes but that's cause doing two 20" stripes doesn't take a whole hell of a lot of patience. Haha
