Fender Stripes
So my 02 Torch Red Z06 is going into the body shop for some repairs, And im having the fender stripes painted on and the rear bumber exhaust valence painted. Any advice on color for the stripes and how to have them positioned. I was thinking a dark Carbon Grey for the stripes and bumper with silver or black accenting the fender stripes, or gloss black for both the stripes and valence.
Im open for suggestions.
Thank you,
Don.

I think the grey with silver accent would look nice.

Either of those two options would look good. If I had to choose though, I'd go with the gray color.

I'd use vinyl, if you get tired of the stripes you can remove them.

Here is mine with black. I bought them from corvettemods.com for $20. I like the look of the wider stripes vs the narrow ones.

Here is a buddy 2010 GS. The accents on the edges look really good. Also notice the coevette emblem at the top.
