Default Yes or no to the stripping/paint?

I can not decide if I want to do this. Should I keep it the way it is? Is this too much going on? And should I pinstrip it or paint it? I do want a little flash going on... **note** this was done in MS PAINT... don't be hating!...... OR should I do something else?



The red would match the SS badging.

Personally, I like it the way it is. I am not a huge fan or pin striping on most cars. The stripe at the bottom might look good, though. Although IDK how I feel about the red on the blue, just does not pop like Red on Black.

If it was me, i'd probably leave it as it is, its goreous as is!

Bottom isn't a bad idea. I don't care for the pinstripe on the fender and quarter panel body lines. The obvious creases accentuate those areas just fine.
