Decide my car's fate

So I've been tossing around the idea of doing stripes on my car for a while now and I'm still not sure if I should or not. I've got a black ss/sc and I'd be doing silver stripes similar to 'hockeyman' on here. I'll throw up some pics of his car and mine. Let me know what you guys think. Yes? No? And feel free to suggest any other ideas...

Mine....

Stripes...............

aww you used my really old pics, here's some updated ones. I removed a lot of the old ones since they are embarrasing (my ss badge is upside down in one LOL)...haha. And of course you know my vote.

better ones

Stripes should never go past the start of the hood or the end of the top of a trunk. Look at old school Camaros and such.

I actually like the "no stripes" idea on an all black car. keeps it very subtle! but hockeymans looks sick! If you do decide on stripes...go with a different colour to set yourself apart from other cars.

I'm not really a fan of stripes, but when properly done, they can look pretty decent.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO the full stripes are awful! If you have to do stripes do the grand sport strips, or none at all...

Not a fan of that style, I prefer stripes that don't continue onto the bumpers. That just looks odd to me.

i like the stripes look (not for me tho) but since you've already got the black headlights i'd say go wingless, tint the back lights, and just maybe some black wheels

just my opinion tho
