What do think about this paint scheme?

I saw this paint on a 2004 Vette. I think it would look awesome on a 91-92 Z28. Mines an 89 but am thinking of making it look like the 91 Z's.

What do you guys think about this paint idea using the heritage stripes or similar style? Maybe on SS hood or big cowl. Think it would be sweet!

I think that could look good, if you went with blue as the main color, silver the main stripe color with red outline...

I like the color scheme....

If you used some red badges on the side and back to accent the red line around the silver heritage stripes it would look good.........and the SS hood is never a bad choice....

Thanks for the replies. Yeah, it is something a bit different and eye catching but not too crazy for a street daily driver with stock motor-- know what I mean. I dont really like cars that look fast but are not, and have expensive paint for only street driven cars.

FLYNLOW92rs---- congrats on the car man, with the new rims and LS1 power. Its really a one of a kind work of art!

That is a pretty sweet scheme IMO. I'd go for it.

I dont like the red outlines. Otherwise it looks ok. Id go for a different shade of blue though and bigger stripes. Then again Id also vote for hugger orange over almost any color. LOL

My car is black already and looks great but so hard to keep clean. I think black with the stripe and red outline would match real nice with the red interior and badges on outside.
