Stripes or no stripes??
I should be getting my spoiler delete plugs tomorrow and am going to use them to see if I like the car w/o a spoiler or not, but I think I will. Since I saw this picture i've been tempted by these stripes. I think they'd look great in a cream and i've got a buddy over at an interior shop that will put in alcantra cream seat inserts that i've been wanting. It'll also help bring the stripes together, what do you guys think?
I also really like that front bumper, but that's a ways away.
here is my color again

Yeah, the stripes would suck, but I like the interior idea...
NoOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Buddy, any time you get idea's like this ...P.M. me....we'll get through it together.
Don't ruin the clean lines of that car.
Like I said before....just let me take care of the car.

I say NAY to the stripes. They seem out of place somehow. Maybe they're too big? I don't know, but they don't quite have the same effect that they do on a Viper. It might be the width and the trunk shape.
By the way, the GTO is the classiest looking Pontiac I've ever seen. It's actually a good car unlike the rest of the lineup. If you had gotten a GSucks (as if you would!), I'd have to kick you in the head.

Honestly, I don't think they'd look that great on the car. Maybe in black, but otherwise no. I'd use the money instead to get that front bumper. I love the depth it adds to the front of the car.

to bad when all said and done that front bumper and all the parts is a few g's
I think the stripes on the hood accentuate the hood nicely but don't think I'd want them on the trunk. They're not your typical stripes so I bet you could get away w/ not putting them on the trunk if you did the hood. The alcantara is beautiful in a car. That'll be the hawtness.

Also not sure if I'd do cream stripes on the red car, but whatever I did, it would be hood only...

you don't think it'd look funny hood only?
What do you guys think of the upper window wing?

This is similar to the design Im considering.
Edit: All bets are off if you are remotely considering vinyl.
