The sun is coming out tomorrow and I pick up the car from clear bra install. I'll take some pics and post then

That looks fantastic! The dark tails work perfectly with ABM too.

Finally someone put the black tails on Arctic blue. I've been waiting to see that.

MANNAXMAN · 04-22-2017, 12:49 PM

I absolutely love this color! I saw it in person for the first time while driving last week on a Chevy Bolt but was yet to see it with my own eyes on a Camaro...until yesterday. I checked the inventory at the dealership near where I work, and, sure enough, they had one in stock. So I drove over after work to take a look. There was a truck that was having some touch-ups done to it parked about 5 feet in front of it, so I couldn't get a good shot from the front. This is the best I could do.

AZCamaroFan · 04-22-2017, 04:20 PM

great pictures. i would think white stripes and silver wheels would make the blue a little darker with the contrast.

@mr965, thanks for the additional pics. What did you wrap (front clip, full front), skirts? And what film did you use?

Full front wrap and side skirts. Install turned out to to be in multiple pieces on front lower bumper. Not happy and will have them redo with as few pieces as possible. I don't like the many seams. Wrap is "premium shield elite"

Depending on the lighting, it appears this color really gives the impression that the front and rear fascia colors do not match the rest of the car.

You're right! It looks like it is doing the same thing on silver ice metallic. I'm no paint specialist but suspect it pertains to only the plastic pieces?

Hello all!

I just purchased a 2017 arctic blue 2SS and I am thinking about adding Hash Stripes on the front fenders. I dont really care for the silver border on the ones from the dealership so I'm looking aftermarket... possibly bigwormgraphix.

Anyone have any experiences, suggestions or pictures they could share?

Thanks!

Greg

Just picked up today! 40 quick miles then off to the shop for a few days for clear bra. 99 today in Phoenix - vented seats are shockingly and wonderfully cold.

Looks amazing! Can't wait for mine to come in, ABM is so unique with the 1LE/ZL1 black accents.
