I think it looks pretty nice. Course what matters is if you like it.

I don't mind two-tone but that one is a bit busy.

I'm not a big fan of stripes, but that doesn't look too bad. Or maybe I was just looking at your avatar.

The girl in the avatar would look better on the hood than those stripes.

It would look better if the amber side marker lights were tinted gray, but it is interesting. I've never been a fan of stripes, and would definately eliminate the one over the roof, and perhaps the one going down the hood, as these are not unique, whereas the balance of the two-tone is unique. In other words, moderation outclasses overdone. One man's opinion.

Here is a Vette in a Lambo gray color that is somewhat similiar to what you've posted. I'm not sure if he is a member here, but these pics are his from 6speedonline

It isn't just gray, it's more of a gray-brown mix. I really like it. In fact, I was just thinking the other day that Corvettes need to be offered in more colors like this one. It's mature, a lot like DSOM was. Not too obnoxious.

Of course, I'm the one with an atomic orange, which I love for its obnoxiousness.

The stripes need to go.

Oh, and I think you can get this color on a 911.
