I love the car shown above as it uses two dark, compelling colors.

However, my GT is Torch red, and were I to add stripes they would be the proverbial white lines, not because everyone else does it, but because it truly is the best combo for that color.

Contrasting colors from the same pallete seem to make sense. If you have a bright Mustang, use a constrasting bright color. Dark, well, like the wonderful GT shown above, use a dark color.

You really cannot go wrong with with stripes. They are powerful, dramatic and in-your-face. Just make it a complimentary color that is secondary to the primary color of the car. You don't want the stripes to dominate, just accentuate.

Good luck.
