Should I get a bumble bee stripe or not?? Its hard for me to decide so I need help. Really like it but the car also looks very good.

Its a triple black 69 charger 440 + im getting new 15" center line convo pro wheels in a month, so they have to fit those wheels.

The question is: Will the car look better or worse with the bumble bee stripe???


Please help me make up my mind.


This is how the car looks now.

It does look mean without.  maybe put a flat black stripe on it.   :yesnod:

I like everything about it....especially the current wheels! I'd skip the stripe BUT I'd put the R/T emblems on the quarters. :2thumbs:

Put a flat black 70 Stripe on it (No R/T) and Flat black hood stripes from the hood depressions to the windshield.

I think it would look good with a silver stripe...but nobody listens to me anyway.  :brickwall:

Best to find someone with good photoshop skills and have them put stripes on it and see how it looks.

I'd wait until the new rims are on it before deciding stripe or no stripe.  Whatever you do, don't badge it an R/T if it isn't really an R/T.   :Twocents:

just an idea!

why not R/T emblems over the stripe with CUSTOM finish... something like dark gray instead red ?

if you don't take it, is just an idea I'm posting to anybody around... of course if was made a good and complete R/T clone or an Original R/T with some diff touchs.

No matter what you decide it is a very sweet ride. If it's not #'s matching w/a certain color stripe from the factory, I'd do something a little different. I like the matte black stripe, or how about a dark matte charcoal stripe?
