Default Wide Hood Stripes on Tungsten

Here's a shot of my Tungsten Grey with the BSM hood stripes in Slate Metallic -



It is a VERY similar color to TG, but the texture is different so it catches the shadows. It almost looks like a ghost stripe, and most folks don't even see it. It's almost too subtle. I may go another way with the hood, but I thought I'd share with y'all in case someone wanted to see how close a match the Slate Metallic is to TG.

28HopUP,

Looks like areally nice color combo!

I do have to question the stripe theme. Isn't that a vintage Chevy type stripe theme? Not that it really matters as it looks good!

Not really spefic to chevy but most old muscle era cars. There is a few around here who have the "rally" stripe. Buckman, dmhines just to name a few!
