I have a 2000 base sedan in USM. Later this year, I will be having the hood sprayed silver, as we did some repairs at home and used the R-O touch up rattle can and it came out terribly. I plan on also acquiring a LSS/Z24 lip kit, as well as the 00-02 spoiler. Does anyone have any suggestions on racing stripes for this car? I was thinking Sunburst Orange Metallic or perhaps the Navy blue that some cavaliers in the era used, but am open to all suggestions.

May also be beneficial to know that my front and rear bumpers are flat black, think 95-99 base model but darker.

Flat or gloss black stripes would look best IMO.

Here is stripes i made and installed on a customer car this last week for some ideas http://www.j-body.org/forums/read.php?f=6&i=230028&t=230028

Message me if you want to get them made, The eBay stripes aren't made of the right vinyl and will not hold up or install good without bubbles.

If I can have my bumpers redone as well for a decent price, would you still go with the Flat Black or would you consider the Orange then?

I think orange may be too "WOW" to be honest. It's entirely up to you but i would stick with either a charcoal metallic or flat/gloss black

I like stripes. Of course, the cheap vinyl ones I got started fading and looking like crap, but some sharpie fixed that...
