Anyone got stripes on a sunroof car?
Hey all, I want to add bumblebee stripes to my ride, but it had a sunroof which means I can't run them hood to trunk without interruption.
Has anyone else added stripes to their camaro with a sunroof? I'd be interested to see what it looks like. I was also considering having the roof black with strips on hood and trunk? |

Camaro’s only had hood and trunk stripes. Mustangs get nose to tail stripes.

The previous owner did it. I wanted to take them off, but my girlfriend likes it that way. That's why they stayed on the roof. As Royal Tiger writes. No Camaro has stripes across the roof. In addition to 4 gen.

The Indy Stripe option is nose to tail. Splitter to diffuser.

Didn’t know about the Indy stripes for 5th gens since that’s what I was referring to. Not a fan. I’ve only ever seen rally stripes which are like the 1st gen. Hood & trunk like Chevy & god intended.

This is the bumblebee I’m trying to replicate, hence the roof stripes. But I do feel a bit better knowing that it’s not commonplace.

My apologies that my opinion post came across as a factual post in regards to the availability of nose to tail stripes. I was going off a discussion years ago that it was said “only mustangs have roof stripes” that I held on to as gospel. I’ve even told that to people in discussions. Sometimes brevity on a forum isn’t always a good thing. Good luck with your project.

I admit that I don't like the lanes on my car at all. The color does not fit completely and when viewed from different angles, a significant difference can be seen. I tried to explain to my girlfriend that no Camaro had stripes across the roof and I really only found 4 genes. what it had.

One of my friends Camaros. I think it looks nice, but not for me. Not a stripe guy.

Although this still looks nice. It's worse on my car. Here is the most obvious difference. But from a distance, in the dark, thick fog during heavy snowfall and behind the bushes, it is not so visible

 But like you said, from a low light level you wouldn't even notice them.

My 2011 SS has hood and trunk stripes but none on roof. I'm not big on stripes and was going to take them off but I was worried the paint would be faded underneath and it would look terrible. They're also hard to see on a black car (dark gray stripes) so I left them alone.
