Hmmm.. Z16 "Ghost" Stripes...
I can't remember who, but one of the members here sells the Z16 stripe package for our cars. I was thinking about picking some up, but had a question for the forum.
I was wondering what a set of silver Z16 stripes would look like on my quick silver Z. I think it would be subtle, but pretty freaking sweet. I have never seen it done, and I was wondering what you guys thought!
It would be similar to ghost flames, but with the stripes instead.
Am I out of my mind? Would this look tacky as hell?

They are some very nice stripe kits and Mike is a good guy to deal with.

Mike can fix you up. I'd get some samples first to play with. Silver on Silver maybe too subtle. Pewter maybe a better bet.

Hahaha... thanks for the info on where to get them, I found that through the search function!
What I'm asking is, how do you guys think the silver stripes on a silver car would look?
Same concept as ghost flames, but stripes instead! I was just curious of how you guys thought this would look.
Thumbs up? Thumbs down? Not noticable enough like what was stated above?

I think you are going to want a contrast, even if it is darker gray on lighter gray...but maybe the outer stripes would be enough contrast...

Jammer,
PICS??????
Have you guys seen ghost flames? From some angles they don't even show up. Other angles they are very noticable. I am looking for that same effect. But I'm not a big fan of flames, so I thought the stripes might fot the bill.
