personally i like black and orange. My white coupe was supposed to be white with orange and black but that's another story.
Thanks for the reply! Pinstriping is cool... as far as the hood goes... would you just line up the stripes with the lines already on the hood? Stripes on the bottom could be cool but I'm not sure how to pull that off on the front (assuming you're thinking of them going around the car in a full 360).

And where did you have your calipers painted, if you don't mind me asking?

Thanks,
