Some have asked about the stripes...

They are from VetteStripes.com. They are the CE2 stripes in flat black.

http://www.vettestripes.com/c5ce2.html

I had a local tint shop install them for me. You can do it yourself if you have the patience and skill. I had neither

I do like them a lot though as they really help to make her stand out.

Nice pics. I really like the wheels on the Viper, I always like a deep dish wheel.
