    Stripes???

    I was thinking of taking the white stripes off in favor of black ones for my sterling gray GT. To match black wheels in the future. Who in Carnegie PA (or around here) does good vinyl or striping work?

    Personally, from the picture I saw I like the grey with white. It's different and it works. It's your car man but I like it as is!

    I never cared for stripes but sometimes they look good. If I was you and wanted stripes I would definitely pulling the white off for black. X2 on Thad, you could pm stanggt94 on here, he may do them, I will ask him today when he's at the shop.

    Maybe post some good photos of your car on this thread so folks can see how it looks. Not many SGM cars with white stripes out there for us to reference.

    This, but without seeing it and your set on stripes then black I would go to.

    I would recommend Chris @ Ferri Design. He does full vehicle wraps/decals both personal and commercial, and he's in Carnegie right by the old Batey/NorthStar Chevrolet. He's got everything to cut the stripes exactly how the OEM ones are.

    If it looks good, you'll see it. If it sounds good, you'll hear it. If it's marketed right, you'll buy it. But if it's real, you'll feel it. IG: @donuttrump

    I will like it no matter which way you go with it. Might like a black Boss 302 stripe kit though? I think a SMG Boss with black stripes would look sweet! Then you could get a set of black Boss wheels and BANG!

    Boss 302 stripes and Laguna seca wheels ( not the red ones ) would be nice.

    Kevin, I'm almost positive he does that as well. If not, a guy I know down the street does it. Must be pretty good too. Been in the biz for decades. Does it for car dealerships and private owners.
