I ordered a Space White Mach-E. How would Grabber Green stripes and brake calipers look? The fact that I think it would look good gives me pause because I am bad at stuff like this.

With black wheels it might look pretty darn cool....

Hmmm...maybe I'll stick with a black stripe.
Or check out a totally different green like something closer to a reduced hue (grayish) Forest Green. I think it could look pretty sick with the right match to space gray.

The lower one reminds me of LA Gear high-tops from circa 1989. Please don't ask for more info. Those were the tough years in school. ?

Yikes! Maybe that 2nd picture would be ok if it was just the hood stripe. But as it stands people will just feel sorry for the poor bastard (the car),

Funny enough, I saw white stripe on lime green GT500 and thought it looked pretty nice.

Personally, on a white car I'd go for black or some sort of deep blue.

Space White has a blue/gray tint, when compared to Star White. In my eye that tint clashes with bright green. Gloss black stripes would go with the trim (what I will be installing). To add the splash of color, perhaps grabber blue calipers? Hey - at the end of the day, it's what looks good to you.

I would suggest a stripe with darkish gray, maybe with a little blue. If you want to Paint the calipers, I would either Paint them red or a sort of electric blue. No green in any part, would make my eyes sore :p

I had the exact same thought when I saw that photo - I had those green LA Gear's - prized possession for the late 80's!

Have you seen a Porsche Panamera EHybrid? They all have green brake calipers. Seems like something you would see on a Nissan Juke or a 914, not a Panamera.
