I like Jesse's idea...that would look awesome. I think somewhere I've seen a picture on one like that. I'll see if I can find it and post it here for you to see.

Sport Red with Black running boards and spoiler

I have the Sprot Red Metallic, and had purchased my running boards and spoiler afterward. Got them in Black. The guys at the chevy dealer who installed them thought I was NUTTS, until they saw the results.





the running board don't soe up to well in the pics, will have to take some new ones sometime.

The SOM does look good on it.. however, I am just wanting a little color.. not planning on using that much paint

Thinking more along the lines of a pinstripe or some kind of small graphic.. So I was thinking it would need to be an eye catching color to reallly pop.. like SOM or lime green.... Ido want to add more than one color.

Daverb, I think the black running boards look good... afterall, that's how they did it back in the day

Thanks again for the input.

Check out HHR Graphics. They don't have a big selection, but that's where we got the flame/pinstripe for HHR MOM.

I'd recomend either 2 or 3. We used three. You can get just about any color.

A light gray would look good with the DSM as a base color. It would be very subtle. Even less conspicuous would be black stripes. They would enhance the lines of the car without out overwhelming it.

I found my striping at a place called Decal Zone. At the time they had a good deal going on. But look around, you can find all sort of places on the internet. Heres a couple of places I have found.

I was thinking down the distant line to have the fenders (front and back) re-painted in Black also. Still not sure at this time
