I would love to see some pics of yours for comparison. My C stripe is the reflective one that is kewl at night when it turns white in headlights, but I don't care for it looking "grey" sometimes during the day. I'm thinking of having it redone with a pure black C stripe since it's starting to come off in a few places.
I hate taking care of the tailpipes, and would like to put dumps on the car, but I'm kind of afraid the cars looks depend too much on them to go with the Black Bullitts shinny rings....
I've yet to see Black Bullitts on a dark car, but I'm not sure they would look good since the shinny rings will stand out SOOOO much.
