    Sorry, I'm having a hard time picturing those colors together. I've always like the combo of red/black myself.

    well i always loved the sonic blue, but my car is laser red and i thought that two sonic blue stripes would look good with some chrome bullets.

    Have some one photoshop it for you in The Virtual Bodyshop. I really dont think it will look right but its your car. I love the way a black GT500 with red stripes looks but I dont like the way a red GT500 with black stripes look, so seeing the sonic bluse with red might be the same way.

    I think any (dark or light) silver would look good and black would be ok.

    That car looks good but I still dont really like that color combo, the single wide stipe helps the look of it. If you look at a regular GT500 it doesn't look near as good.

    Thats sounds like a good combo, but its gonna be expensive to get it done right....U will have to do the doorjams, trunk, engine bay etc. Is your laser red paint in bad shape?? Laser red is a nice color when its maintained right....

    well the driver door is a lil darker and the back is turnin that metalic pink. i will probably get the cobra bumper and side skirts and a 95 cobra r hood. and me and one of my friends will be dooing the paint. he does some really good work. and my fiance said she wants to pay for the paint. she wants me to paint it but i picked the colors. my dad has a 98 vette that he s/ced and it is that napa blue and he wont let me drive it cause i know how to handle it

    In that case, then yeah i would repaint too...If u can afford it, that 2 tone silver & sonic blue would look sweet with the Cobra skirts, front bumper, & R hood...while your at it, u should pick up the 03-04 Cobra mirrors too...

    well im not going to let her pay for it all herself. i need to find out how much the paint is gonna be. me and her cousins husband will be doing the bodywork and the piant. he will also help me install the cams and springs when i get them. i can get a good deal on a tuner. and i should be getting some lowering springs for christmas. i hear everyone talk about H&R SS springs. where do i look for them and about how much?
