Default Help me Theme my C7

So I've been thinking of how to Theme out the new C7. I ordered an arctic white c7 due to be in at any time. My current thoughts are the 2 things I love most. America and Texans. I'm also kinda open to other thoughts. Opinions?

My photo shop skills suck but heres an "idea" of what they could be.

How about just painting some race stripes down the middle with a can of spray paint or a paint roller?

Don't get me wrong.... I think white is now my favorite C7 color.

But it looks like a storm trooper out of Star Wars.

Therefore, I think you need to do a Star Wars theme. Put some star wars stickers on it and get the personal license plate "DRKSIDE". Nerds will totally freak out when they see it.

yes, and long horns on on the grill if you don't have a front license plate. Also Boots are a requirement as well... I'm failing a bit in all of those categories as all I have is a towing package on my car.... I mean Truck lol
