Okay, so I have the color just about nailed down. Now it's time to figure out some stripes.
Do me a favor, check out the renderings I did below and, if you would be so kind, leave a comment with the number of the picture you like best! I know which one I like best, but I'd love to get some more opinions.
number 2 but i think i would take it down 50 shades and have it a subtle look into the base colour.
they look amazing when done like that. far less shouty.
I'd say 2 in same color as wheels in middle stripe...like happy said maybe a little more narrow with the two outer stripes in black and maybe them a little more narrow as well. Maybe 1-2"...would have to play with that.
EDIT: Would probably also consider the reverse of the above color schemes.
I like #6...it gives a nice bright pop since the rest of the car is a bit dark.
You could fatten the stripe up just a bit and put it in the middle if you like a middle stripe more. Something like this Ring Brother's car, but without the black.
Number two gets it for me, but I'm not sure what an argent stripe is that's being suggested. Number five is my second choice, but I'd want the larger of the two stripes a bit wider than it is in the rendering.
Looks great!! Did you taper the stripes at the nose any? I read somewhere that most were tapered to keep the perspective because the hood has a narrowing line to the nose.
Thank god I am not alone, I prefer none of the choices.
