hmm, here's the traditional SS Stripes:




I'd say start at each side of the license plate frame and make'm about as wide as the plate frame. That would leave an equal gap in the center and outsides i think.

just my 0.02, but if its a chevy, you might not want to paint the roof of the cab. most chevy ralley stripes go hood and trunk, and skip the roof, and most ford ralley stripes include the roof. just a thought.

looks good with the bumper and roof removed. Can you change the black to a dark grey/gun metal? I think Orange/grey would look good. The orange/black seems too much for the truck, looks good on cars though.

Thanks. I appreciate the help. I'm thinkin the Orange is too overkill for the truck, even for my wildside. Whats your opinions on a Nice deep blue (similar to Daytona Blue) and silver?

Probably not.... IMO, stripes are great for certain cars, but the truck isn't one of them.

I may have to look into was the SS guys mentioned and do the escalade pearl white. Simple but gorgeous. I think the 'over the top' has bled out of my system. The stripes really don't look good on that bodystyle Silverado.
