Default Any NRB cars with orange stripes on here?

I am thinking of doing a custom stinger in metallic orange along with matching orange calipers. I just wanted to see if anyone did the factory orange stripes on the NRB

Btw I plan on doing my stinger a little different from the oem sticker, I plan on starting at the hood ridge that is 1" in front of the vent and around the sides as so the carbon flash vent is inside of the stinger

Closest I could get was the dual stripes on the gm site.....I just want to do a stinger but since it's an option I figured someone would have ordered one and I could see the real life color combo

High contrast isn't the direction I'm going (NRB + carbon flash), but I definitely think if you pick the right hue of orange that it would look pretty good on the NRB body color. Keep in mind the color range that NRB's capable of in different lighting if you consider going that route.

Remember stripes that are not factory original detract value at trade in time. Most dealers will remove them for resale.

First mine will be painted on, an why the f would I care about trade in.....I'm not sure about you but I bought this car for me and if I do decide to sell it and not add it to the collection I'm not worried. Only people worried about trade in can't afford the car in the first place.

Wow what a personality you have there....

You came here asking for something and that's how you respond to somebody offering a tip?

Very classy

I never asked for a tip or opinion, I asked if someone who has the option offered oem has a picture
