Opinions about an idea...

OK, here's an idea I had...

My car is NBM. I'm thinking about putting silver CAMARO lettering on my ground effects by the doors, and then line the rest of the ground effects with a thin strip of silver vinyl the same height as the lettering.

Here's 3 Photoshopped variations of what it could look like...
(I know, my Photoshop skills aren't the greatest, hehe)

What do you guys think? Suggestions? TIA!

Looks good, almost like some of the V6 Mustangs though. You need some wheels too!

I think the CAMARO by itself would look pretty good but the stripe would be a bit much for me anyway.

I agree with Brent. The stripe might be a bit much. Put some 17" wheels on her and you'll forget about those graphics quick

I like the layout of the second picture but think that the stripe is to think and gives the car an Iroc look.

I have to agree with the others on doing just the lettering only. Silver looks good on the NBM.

The way it sounded, I didn't think I'd like it but after seeing the pics, I like it a lot.

Thumbs Up here

I think it looks pretty cool! I would think about a different color, like a hugger orange or something. I think that it being a light color like silver or white makes it look more "stangish" The orange would toughen it up a little.

I agree with everyone's statement about some new wheels....and if you are like me, you wish that they were the same price as the graphics/stripes so that you could get them instead. RIGHT?

Cool, thanks for the opinions everyone!
Keep em coming!

Yes, I know I need some new wheels... anyone feel like donating some chrome SS rims to me? hehe

I think over the winter I'm gonna go ahead with the idea... after all, it's just vinyl, if I don't like it I can take it off.
