Red looks really good with white cars, but don't overdo it. I personally love the red trim on the rim lips. Get a nice red chevy logo for your grill. Maybe lower it a bit. Nice car

Ehh, I really wanted them to be about as different as can be really. I am however trying to lean my dad towards painting his 72 z/28 orange with white stripes.

Get some black stripes then. Stripes look better on white Camaros than any other color (except maybe black). 
Um, I can't get the image to work. Try this link: http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m...RS/01white.jpg or this one http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m...C8/website/SLP RS/01white.jpg

I say no stripes -- black or orange. As an owner of a 30th, I agree -- you want your other car to live on its own. The black halo on the white car is AWESOME, and the 30th wheels are smoking hot on your 4.1-gen. I would like orange calipers on your car.

Re: First real pics of my 2000 z/28
I'm leaning towards red or orange calipers for sure. And I can't stand hockey stripes, so that's a no go for me. As for the Halos, I love the way they look, but after seeing a few set up close and seeing how bad the weather stripping looks around them, I'm leery on getting a set. On a good note, I ordered loudmouth 1 today with dual/dual tips

By halo, I was referring to the black halo (wrap-around-the-back) roof line -- not halo lights. I think those are too over the top for my tastes. Your car is a picture of subtle grace and power.

Just FYI, what you're calling a halo is the C-pillar. A-pillars are alongside the windshield and there's no B-pillar on 4th gens. I guess the 5th gen has one though.
