Question Pin stripe color on amethyst

Wanting some input on pin striping on amethyst.

With the grey interior we're not sure what color to go with. I've always believed it should math interior but I just can't see doing grey stripes.

What about chrome?(my first choice, but not my car)

Suggestions welcome!!

Cool

White, light grey, or silver.

I own a Amethyst but have pearl ghost flames.

Crome is always a good one, but silver would look great also.

I think a Metallic Silver would look nice on it.

The best thing to do is go to a local body shop or auto body supply and see if they have samples or color charts to try out against the vehicle. Try before you buy

How about a pearl white or silver? Booksmitty's pearl ghost flames look great. Chrome would look good too.

Or you can do what I did...got to a place that sells tape to body shops and pinstripers and take a look at their color charts. The place my pinstriper gets his stuff from let us take several rolls outside to my car and cut small pieces off and see how they looked. Gave me a pretty good idea of what I liked and helped eliminate things I thought I might like.

Good luck and we look forward to seeing what color you decide to go with.

I agree, I think metallic silver would work well.

Shade-shifter tape stripe as a test, easy to remove, you may end up liking it though. There are a couple of images in my Gallery. It seems to reflect purples and blues. I'll send you a couple of end piece samples snail mail if you'd like.
