Does anyone know where I can see some pics of Vista Blue with Black SS stripes (matte and glossy).

i have black deep disk rims with a black interior..

white stands out and draws attention but black screams color coordination!

ah decisions decisions...

Hey 06, I can partly help you out. I sold a girl a V6 Pony Package, and she got painted stripes on it, in gloss black. Very understated look. She saw my car and for her, it was too much, so she went with the black. Not a bad look at all. Still turns heads, but not in a blue/white sort of way. The only problem, I don't have any pics of it, sorry.

Maybe you have these- they're not Vista but you should get the idea:

FWIW I debated on black for months before deciding to do white. I really wanted black because I thought it would look mean..... I had an '04 Mach 1 that was Azure Blue with the black highlights and I loved it. But, its just my opinion, Vista Blue is too dark to do black stripes; so I went with white.

I do like the black stripes.

I think I'll go with glossy black and from the bottom of bumper to back of car down to bottom fo rear bumper.

I like the examples I saw (obviously not in black) on one website that were 12"s and had 2" seperation in the middle.

I have never really liked the look of black stripes on blue car's White look's prett good but probably not with black wheel's. I love how silver stripes look on blue.

Not really necessary since the link above your post does it. Now if he supplied a pic of his car someone could photoshop that.

Have you tried looking in this thread?
AFBlue even has a spreadsheet that will link you directly to each color combo.

^^ +1 for AFblue's excel chart, I was just about to link to this when I saw the thread. This is a fantastic tool to use for picking stripes.
