Default Opinions needed/ Ordering forgelines soon

69 Camaro
Is going to be painted flat black
I know I want the SO3 with a matte black center and titanium hardware but not sure on the lip. I see a lot with the brushed lip but I'm not too crazy about it. What do you guys think about a titanium or gunmetal lip with the matte blk center? Too dark?

I was also considering a red pinstripe. My calipers will be red.

Thanks,
Justin

so do I but do you think it will look too dark on a flat blk car? I don't want them to completely disappear...

I think if you have polished hardware it will help prevent that. I don't think it will be a problem. The titanium lip will help and the simple 5 spoke design also helps keep it from disappearing. I say go for it

Now I just need to decide on red stripe or not. I plan to have red emblems and calipers. Thought it might look cool...

There's also the brushed nickle that looks pretty nice. It's more expensive but might be worth it.

Any other opinions?
