Bat\'s Blue Vinyl Stripes on Black(PICS)!

OK, so I'm alittle late, but I think the results were well worth the wait :) . For those that doubted Blue would look good on black, I hope I was able to change your mind ;) . Enjoy!

*note: I had the stripes added to the small section above the bumper so it flows better, rather than having it continue at the bumper. My redout Overlays for the turn signals keep the back clean as well, so the stripes don't clash with the orange :) .

Bat, looks great. Would look better with black interior. I think you can dye your interior black which would be cheaper and easier than swapping out your interior. In any event, great looking car.

I think it looks great, worth the wait. It must have been difficult running it through the hood duct like that very nice work.

I did not even notice the grill work. Wow, that is pretty neat.

I was looking forward to seeing how it would come out. But it ended up looking even better than I would have guessed. :2tu:

Ya, going to a black interior will be on my list of things to do down the line. I want to get a short shifter and possibly wheels next. Actually, I'm thinking of getting my seats reupholstered and have some blue integrated with the black :) .

That's different, looks pretty good. You made your Viper unique without making it look tacky.

Re: Bat\'s Blue Stripes on Black(PICS)!

I originally ordered my ACR without stripes because I was planning to put on bright blue stripes. However, when I learned it was one of 17, it tempered my decision. However, after seeing this -- your car looks really good.
Are colors made to order or are they standard?
Bat, your car looks awesome. Good move.

Re: Bat\'s Blue Stripes on Black(PICS)!

The shop I took my car to had several blue's, but I wanted a Blue that matched my Z because I really liked that particular hue. I held up several types of Blue up agianst the Viper to make sure it would look right. I didn't want it too dark as to blend in with the black. Here's a pic of my Z. The Blue matches perfectly with it. I need to get a pic of both cars together now that I have stripes on the Viper :) .

Looks awesome. I guess that I am one of the few that loves the cognac interior. If I had a black car I would trade you my black for you cognac. Looks great. Keep the pics coming.

Thanks

BlueBat, your car looks great!
Your tan interior doesn't shock me at all, I like it like that.

Re: Bat\'s Blue Stripes on Black(PICS)!

Bat,

Looks awesome!!!.... heads up though, that color with the metalic in it is THE worst when it comes time to peel it off, that is if you ever do. Speaking from expericance, that is the exact same blue I used to use for all my race car numbers back in the day (back in the day only being the last 2 to 3 years)..... it's a beiotch to peel off once it's been on for any period of time.

Black interior is a MUST now. Black with some blue maybe....

What's with the TM Trade Mark after Bat? Did I miss something when you came on board?

DeadEye, YES! Flat black on black, now that's EVIL KEWL! Go For it!
