What color pin stripes look good on red?
 
I have the sport red 2LT with grey interior. I can't decide what color pinstriping or rally striping would look best. Has anyone done their car yet?

With a red car I would say white would be the best choice IMO. I have a dark silver HHR and am putting on vinyl ghost flames when I can clear some time in my schedule. My previous car was mineral grey which was grey with a copper cast to it and I put on gold stripes.

White or blue sounds good to me

I used to do a lot of pinstriping. Try Gold, Silver, or White on a Red car. It depends on what you are trying to match (wheels, etc.)

Hope it helps,

I had a Ford Ranger flair side pickup and silver was my choice. Silver or gold would be my guess. Buy both and return the one that does not look as good. Tape it on with masking tape just to get the look.

I'm with socal. You can do it in quite a few colors, but it depends on what color your going to do everything else. There is a pt crusier that has about 9 different colors from base color (purple) wheels(white), body graphics(green) chrome trim and the inside has some yellow accenting. Next time I see it I'll take a picture. Its hideous.

Please do! That sounds hilarious! :D

I also have a red HHR and I am considering a black stripe. It will definitely be understated, but I don't want anything too flamboyant, either.

Black and red is a nice combo also. :thumb: I like it better the other way around better, black vehicle red stripes. :eek:
