Default Racing stripes done my way

Its time! I'm doing the racing stripes on Nichloe this week, heres what I've got so far.














I want it to look like there is a slice of black truck where the stripes are, everywhere in that line turns black no matter what it is. I'll post up pics as I get
the paint on it and than how it looks cut and buffed!

Got a lot of it done today, just have the back to go now












I put a ton of clear on there so you can't feel the stripes, going to finish spraying tomorrow than cut and buff and hopefully Saturday the sun will come out so I can see the black diamond sparkle !

what about following it into the grille? and even the little bowtie in your front hitch?

I like the lights and no complaints about the bumper if it is your style. However, that grille has to go...toooo much billet. No offense!

Not sure what is "your way" about the stripes but they look good.

The grill and lights aren't so cool if you ask me, but hell who wants to be like everyone else.

Is that the GM color from some of the newer '09+ cars?
