Well, I too am not a big fan of flat black stripes......but.......I absolutely love Baz's car and, for his car with the black wheels, its just a perfect combination.
I too was looking at stripes for my red RT, kinda put on hold, but I've seen both and prefer the gloss stripes to the flat. Also, if you look closely, I think Baz's stripes are more of a matt finish than a pure flat.
At the end of the day, you have to like it on your car. Viper mods, especially visual ones, seem to be purely a personal taste issue. Just make sure that what you choose, is something you can live with over the long term....a pain if you decide to remove and replace with something else! Ahhhh, but better than paint!
