To Bee or Not to Bee

[Purdue_Boiler_Viper]

I've got a Race Yellow 01 GTS, and am thinking about adding stripes. I asked buddies etc if I should put stripes on it, and was surprised by the responses. What do you guys and gals think?

They have left the USA......

Baz,

Still waiting for you to come over and add some stripes for me.

 

[ViperCrazed]

Purdue, I would DEF. go with stripes.

IMHO, the yellow Vipers don't look "complete" until they are a bumblebee.


If you do it, you will be back here a week later asking "Black wheels or No black wheels?"

 

[V10SpeedLuvr]

Yes, yes, yes!!

Do it!!

 

[Mccarlin]

A viper isnt complete unless it has stripes on it Just my opinion of course.

 

[CROM]

My vote is for stripes.

A bumble bee with black wheels will look great!

 

[Chuck 98 RT/10]

Bumble bee is great and all but just about every yellow GTS has them. I kinda prefer the clean solid yellow look myself. But either way looks great.

 

[OKViper]

If it is a GTS - then stripe it! No GTS should be without stripes...

 

[Venomiss]

Either black stripes or .........pearl white stripes? We have a Viper in KC with white and it looks nice.

 

[PittsburghRT]

Yellow needs to have stripes. Stripe it!

Stripes ruin the clean look and make the car appear narrow.Many lesser cars need stripes to dress them up but a GTS is not one of them.Leave the stripes to the ricers,camaros and mustangs. GTS Bruce

 

[Casey]

100% yes on yellow!

 

[Brian GTS]

Black stripes all the way! Don't think twice about it.

 

[ASPIRATIONS]

STRIPE IT!!!!!

No offense taken.

I agree with the white stripes. It's unique and looks good. Check out the Woodhouse Viper website for pictures if you are not sure how it would look.

 

[ViperVon]

I'm in the same predicament. Love that clean race yellow look but as time goes on the stripes are more and more appealing.

This is like being in hell.

You look at a pristine Yellow Viper, and you think ... Perfect.

Then you look at a Bumble Bee, and you get excited.

I took the car over to a shop where they do a lot of the Indy Cars graphics today for a quote. A little like taking my boy to the day care for the first time.

Time to decide. I think I'm going to go over to the dark side.

Thanks to everyone for the advice!

 

[TAXIMAN1]

I have a 2001 Solid yellow GTS... Ive thought about doing this as well...

 

[Obsidian]

One more vote for White Stripes. I have only seen one Yellow Viper with White Stripes, and it was the best look I have ever seen on a Viper.

 

[Ricketts]

I have a 01 Race yellow car too, I vote NO STRIPES!!! Thats just my opinion though

Bee a honey-pun intended - and be sure to send some pictures when it's done!

Stripes, and then black wheels.

 

[Purdue_Boiler_Viper]
