LOTS of colors! That red, white, and blue looks pretty patriotic

Are you using the paint software that comes with Windows? my photoshop pc is turned off upstairs so I used a program I have on my laptop that's real similar called GIMP. It just didn't work as well on the ground effects as yours did.

Hahaha, thank goodness... I thought i was loosing my mind was going to ask you how in the H*** you managed that (along with your signature) in paint!

I deal with customer software support way more than I want to so I take someone's word for it if they say they use paint

I'm remembering the times I've seen white cars with silver gound effects or silver decals.

I remember the silver sections getting "lost" in the white paint depending on the lighting. Especially on a sunny day.

Is there a more contrasting color that you like? I know the flag decals are also available in black on the net. Not sure if you want to go with that or not. Too typical maybe? It would give you more of a real checker flag look.

What if you were able to find the flag decals in blue? Personally, I think a white Monte with blue ground effects and flag decals would look good. And would definitely be different than any I've seen.

At the 2008 Monte Nationals, a white 2007 Monte SS with gold accents was there. It was beautiful!!!

Wonder how a white Monte with gold Nascar flags would look?

Default white mc

I actually kinda like that gold color on there..
I'm still learning how to work with my photoshop
but I came up with something like this.....




I think the silver would be good but trim it with blue pinstriping.
And then maybe, run a solid stripe along the bottom ?
Hope we have given you some good ideas.
Good Luck.
