Hey all, did a quick search and didn't find anything matching too closely to this. I'm painting my T/A black, and was wondering if anyone has any good pics or any photoshops of a black T/A with some kind of stripes. I'm planning on keeping all the exterior stock (except for paint, obviously), and haven't seen really any good pics of what that would look like. I was thinking of going with a whole black with orange scheme, like the kind of orange that the lettering on our 'glove box' is. Kinda dark, to keep from standing out too much from the black, but not too dark.

Anyways, post away!

 

ummm no offense but im not sure if racing stripes would flow with the lines of the nose and hood.... just my $.02.... but hey man make it look sweet and prove me wrong

 

Yeah, I can't really picture in my head a good set of stripes or stripe that would flow well, but I'm hoping some folks out there have better imaginations than myself. Or at least extensive photo archives

 

i saw a guy in florida who did gray stripes on the hood. they started thin, and got thicker to keep the hoodlines intact, about 15" wide at the top. it looks ok, but i wouldn't do it. if you're interested in another color that would be easy to undo, change the color of the ground effects. because of the size/shape you can get a real good finish with cans of basecoat/clearcoat, for $20 in supplies and a few hours of sanding.
