I would say go back to the clean look man... If you are going back to the stock tails, and truly are building a sleeper, keep it clean... lowered with the nice wheels is all the "upgrades" people need to see lol
edit: if you are going to keep your ventvisors, upgrade to the weather tech ones... they go in the window channel and do not interrupt the chrome trim around the door like the ones you have do... or plasti dip the rest of the chrome trim... lol

IMO the stripes are nice, but I would've picked a darker blue. The light blue kinda clashes with the blacked out look man.

You should take them off if you're fully murdering out the car, which would mean that the blue brakes would have to go.

I say remove the stripes. If you're going to have stripes, match the stripes and the brakes to the darker blue that you already have all over the engine bay...
And Tim- I made him delete the ventvisors months ago! They just don't go on this car with this look.

Sometimes it's not a bad idea to revisit old habits.
With that said, keep the fender stripes, it sets you out from every other black Alero. Besides, it isn't something that tells people much, just a stripe.

I think it looks good either way, but the stripes do look better with the new rims versus the old ones.

To me the stripes just look out of place and serve no useful purpose...so my opinion is to remove them.
