Advise needed please. How to finish my paint

[zooq]

My protouring project is 90% done. The car is running and just needs some tuning and small modifications to hopefully reach 100%. One problem I'm having is I feel that the paint job is a bit plain, I feel that something is missing. Should i leave it alone? or try to modify the line between the two colors?
What do you guys think?
The pics are when the car came out of paint booth, it still needs to be polished.

I asked the body shop to flare the fenders by about 1.5 inch.

Kind of late now, the car is done. About the only thing you might be able to pull of is painting the silver gap black.

What is it that dont like?

[zooq]

I like the two tone but I thought the middle thin line would look better. Should I add a third color in the middle or just sand off the thin black line and paint silver over it.

Id like to see a rear shot, to see how the stripe goes around the back but I really like it how it is. Youd never mistake that for another car, even from far away, and it looks good.

[meenaggie]

You could always pin stripe an outline on the little black stripe . . . maybe in a color that stands out like lime green or red. Personally, I would either leave it or paint the silver part black but it is your car.

here is a shot of the back:

it doesn't look bad. I probably would have left a smaller gap between the stripe and the black, but its not terrible.

Maybe a red pinstripe inside the black stripe, leaving a black stripe on both sides of the red? Or maybe more sublte and have 3 thin red pinstripes, on on each end of the stripe, and one on the end of the black top. Just enough to break it up, but not overpower the car with a red stripe.

like this.

[justasquid]

or this....

I would probably also consider using a dark gray wheel instead of black. It might bring out the car a little more.

Thanks alot guys
justasquid Thank you for the photoshop. I really like the first picture and specially the 3 thin pinstripes idea!
Can you please photoshop it with Lime green or blue?

[justasquid]

Just a quick one again. I like your idea of the green.. it looks great to me.

here they are:

I like the idea of a lime green stripe within the black stripe as above. I saw a boat a few years back that was a flat gunmetal and flat charcoal with a lime green stripe breaking up the two colors and I have been a fan of that color combo ever since. Yours is very similar to the layout of the boat, and it would break things up in the right way.

I think it looks great, leave as is imho.

[65 drop top]

I was thinking you could a little color to it then saw the photo shop by justasquid and think he nailed it with the one with the solid red stripe. kinda ties in with the calipers too. Also once you get all the trim/chrome on it it will look great.

[elitecustombody]

take that "electrical tape" stripe off, just being honest,that's what it looks like, no matter from what angle you look at it

[ods dan]

yeah dump the black stripe.. doesn't look good at all. I think I would just do that and pinstripe a line between the blk and silver, with no little blk stripe..

[2Bad4Ya]

either fill in the gap with a charcoal grey, or red imo. Or remove the black stripe all together and have a thin red pinstripe along the black edge.

[NOT A TA]

I think a thinner black line above the lower black line would look good. Maybe even add 2 lines. One maybe 1/2" and above that a 1/4", you'd have to play with the stripe width proportions and spacing to get the "look" right.

[19,69camaro]

I think justasquid nailed it with the red stripe with black pinstripes on either side. Just make sure the size of those too is at least equal in size to the silver stripe to make it look proportional
