Your choice. The Cyber Gray stripe or a stinger over the Watkins Glen Gray metallic on a coupe is sharp. Nice subtle look.

The wider solid stinger stripe behind the hood vent I believe is Corvette unique. I considered a carbon flash wrap stinger stripe being the right color on a blade silver convert with a black top. It was just too much black with the black convert top for me. A stinger wrap would provide that much more hood protection from road debris unless you have a full clear hood wrap.

Good luck in your quest.

Something to consider before adding stripes, they do scratch, scuff and bird droppings will etch them. Care needs to be taken when washing and/or wiping down the car. Plan on having them ceramic coated right after the install for added protection.

Great color choice. But then I might be a little prejudiced.
