Hey guys, Fairly new here... But I have been roaming the site for several weeks but finally got my 2011 Camaro LT1/RS two weeks ago and wanted to make it unique but don't know what to do with it or what colors would go with the Jewel Tint, Any suggestions would be great😈

Good luck! I have struggled looking for colors to complement the color of the car and it is very difficult. Black, dark silver, and white all generally look good.

You need a mild gold or a champagne color.
Those would go awesome with RJT.

I feel like black would be too dark for the Jewel Tint tbh but thanks for the reply!

I have the black stripes on the hood and trunk. If I would have purchased the car new, I would have went with silver stripes but I do like the black.

I have carbon flash metallic stripes. They change color like the car does and get darker in low light and lighter in bright sunlight.

I really like the idea of the silver stripes on it, I looked up a couple of silver striped one's and it looks good.

Just got my calipers back from powdercoating - should be an interesting color on RJT

I did gold spears and rocker stripes once, then went black, then went with American Car craft radiant flames. There was a SEMA "red flash" show car GM did up in silver stripes that looked nice when they came out with the high rise rear spoiler and GFX.
Good Luck. Discount vinyl places are on the net and liked them better than Ebay stuff which came in boxes not tubes messed up....more than once. here is a couple pics over time...

Love the Red Jewel, I had a 10 LT1 black stripes with mile deep shine. Beautiful car!!

Nice gold on the calipers!

Subdued black stripes with gold accents to pick up the caliber color would look awesome on the red.
