Surprisingly the black with red stripes looks good. I normally don't care for colored stripes but I like it

interior is black and grey. When i say gray i mean the floor carpet is gray along with the kick panels grey and the rear plastic trim is gray and also the rear carpet is gray. Door panels dash, dash pad and also the window trim is black and also the headliner is gray. i like the rims it has on it now i willchange the tires but i am also thinking of going to a larger rim. it has 15s on it now maybe fine some 16s or 17s

Definatly like the hugger orange but not a big fan of the white stripes on the hugger orange on third gens. Here is a pic of a third gen that is hugger orange with no stripes and the second is a pic of a viper that has a paint scheme I like. I also like the hugger orange with black stripes (third pic).

Re: deciding on paint(pic heavy)

I really hate the 85-92 cars taht ahve different color gfx. It's just weird looking when the transition from ground fx to body lines are so smooth to break it up so obviously.

The black with red stripes looks amazing as long as you dont do full body stripes. Stick with heritage style stripes or your variation you used in your photoshop pics where they dont come all the way down the bumper cover. Nothing says hideous like full body stripes on these cars.
