alero with fender stripes?
yeah, thats what it says. after seeing grand ams on GAGT with em i started to like em. so i figured id buy some and put em on, and honestly i really like the look. now they are light blue, reason why is because my calipers are light blue and it matches pretty well if the calipers were clean. it will flow better once i put the 18s back on in the spring and i clean the calipers up.
now i dont want to hear alot of trash on color or anything i would like a simple "i dont like it" and a reason why you dont just want to know your opinion in a nice way  but i like the idea and havent seen an alero with em yet, maybe because no one likes how it looks or what. but i did it and love the look. on to the pics!
and here is comparing em to the calipers back when they were clean. pretty good match.

that would have looked good too, but i like colors to kinda stand out so getting a stripe to match the calipers sounded good to me and also wanted it to stand out well, idk why, but all the grand ams ive seen there stripes stood out alot but looked good at the same time. but glad you like it! and i appreciate the opinion!

this is exactly what I was thinking, dark grey would looks amazing on there. but the blue does look pretty good itself.
side note: when are you going to lower that thing!?
