Default Need help with Torch Red Z07 with racing stripes carbon flash

Hello everyone,

I am planning to get a TR with Z07. I need help in making a decision whether just to add a stinger carbon flash like the following:

OR

getting dual racing stripes for the Z07.

I really like the rear of the vette with the dual racing types like the following:

I found a sample picture of the front with dual racing stripes like this:
http://www.pinterest.com/pin/373376625328144586/

Does anyone have a picture, a link or can do a photoshop of the front of Torch Red Z07 with dual racing stripes?

I am just worry that the Z07 with dual racing stripes will be too much black. I really like though the rear of the vette with it.

Thank you very much everyone!

After further research without having to do photoshop, the closest look probably will be the Z51 Pacific Edition as shown here:

With some additions of winglets, sideskirts to accommodate Z07.

Hope you folks enjoy it,

Fwiw I ordered mine with the stinger carbon flash. It really depends on what your preference is. I love the lines of the car and with the dual stripes it just seemed like a little too much for me. That said I think they both look good. My biggest headache was deciding between tr and vy. My wife and son both wanted tr and I wanted the vy. All my prior vettes have been red and I kinda wanted to change that up. I also ordered the a8 so I may or may not get my dealers only allocated z06.

Iam going with the dual full length racing stripes myself. I think they make the car look more macho and ferocious. But thats just MHO.

My TR C7 has the carbon flash on the hood. I loved it.

Considered the dual stripe for the Z06 because I LOVE the look on the back, but I do not like the look of the dual stripe on the front of car.

So, I'm getting the stinger stripe on my Z06.
