  • Holden SSV black stripe kit

    Here's your chance to give me your opinions, not that I needed to ask.
    Only the top and the hood are done for now, and I held off on the portion of the hood in front of the scoops. I think I like it better without putting the rest of the stripe on the scoops. Let me know what you think.
    I also didn't have time to detail the G8 either, so no comments from the peanut gallery. LOL
    The deck lid and spoiler will get done after May 10th, because that's when the deck lid gets the holes filled and repainted.

    Ray, while stripes aren't my thing, I do like those on your car. I don't think you could have chosen a better way to get the striped look. The main thing is that you're happy with the result. The rear view will just add to the effect when you're done. Good job IMO.

          Stripes look awsome!!! Are your bottom grilles just dirty or are they actually the regular black unpainted plastic? If they are clean, paint those to match the top grilles; the shiney black. O yea and I'm talkin about the outside not the mesh part.

            The stripes look ok.... but why did you get the flat black color. I think it would look better glossy... You have like three different shades of black. Glossy grille rings, plastic flat black grille mesh, and a different matte black stripes??
            just my opinion

                The bottom grilles are just black plastic. Actually, it looks as if the grille surrounds are going to be painted semi gloss now.

                To be honest, I wasn't aware the stripes were not gloss black, so I was kinda surprised. Anyway, too late now. LOL
                Your opinion is helpful.

                  Now that you have the stripes on, you can paint the car glossy black, then peel off the vinyl and then you'll have red stripes on a black car.....and it will be painted not stickers..... Boy..that would look bad ASS!!!

                    I like the way the stripes on the hood looks and the rear deck with spoiler will look good also, I'm sure. I not a big fan of the stripes on the roof though. Too much going on when you see the factory black accents, IMHO.

                          the concept looks great but I think gloss black would bring it all together

                              If you dull coated the grills maybe that would work???
