Dual stripes on atomic orange
Was wondering if anyone did the dual stripes on their atomic orange c6. Love the looks of this car but wondering if the stripes would make it pop. Any pics?

WADR, somehow I just can't imagine an Atomic Orange needing more "pop." But, hey! It will look good, assuming you pick the right stripes and color/contrast. Go get 'em!

Not a fan of the dual stripes. Most I've seen are just straight parallel stripes that don't follow any body lines. There seem to be better results with a single stripe, in my opinion.

Beautiful color. Don't do it!!! Civics have stripes. Acuras have stripes. Corvettes need stripes like they need a back seat!

OP- Orange with white stripes has always been a good color combo for Chevy.
I disagree. So do most of the people who have seen my car.

In most cases, I would have to agree. However, I was at the Vettes on the River Corvette Show in Paducah a couple of weeks ago, and looked at a Black Rose Z06 with the stripes, and it looked amazing

Well lets see, we could all drive (insert your color here), all have the same interior color, all have (insert your color wheels here), we could all vote for Bernie , we could all drive the same car, I think you get the point, we all have DIFFERENT TASTES so celebrate it if you like it or just move on.
How boring would a car show be if they were all (insert color here)

Because muscle cars were just regular boxy sedans with a bigger engine. They needed the stripes to stand out. On a small curvy sports car, they can interfere with the lines. But everyone has their own opinion.
