Default New paint for the 86.

I am asking for some help on a paint decision. I am going to get my 86 painted. It's black and I want to keep it that way. What I want to do is put a Grand Sport stripe down the middle. First are these painted on stock grand sports or are they decals? Second I want to know if you guys have pictures of a black or dark colored car with a white or silver stripe on it? I can't decide if I should go with a white or silver stripe. Thanks guys all input appreciated.

I am sorry for the double post. My computer crapped out while I posted the first time and I did not realize it actually went though so I did it again. One of these can be deleted.

The factory GS's stripes were painted and "dressed" with pinstriping on the edges.

If your sure you want the stripe, just have them paint it on as well. Shouldn't cost that much extra. They sell vinyl stripes out there and is easy to take off if not desired.
