Stripes

Smokin19 · 11-02-2019, 11:53 AM

Just got back from picking up car after putting on stripes. Stripes are almost perfect match with the OEM metallic black paint. Had to drive it to shop in rain so, not cleaned up yet.

Very different but looks good to me Smokin! ��

Looking good

Really like the front stripe, there is something about the rear trunk stripe that looks overwhelming, can’t put my finger on it…

I like it, good job for trying something different.

Surprised you didn’t continue the stripes on down the back and on to the front lip, they do however, make it more aggressive looking. Well done!

Your statement of "almost perfect match" peaked my interest......could you find out the manufacturer and stock number of that vinyl?
Thanks

Love the front and roof stripes, seriously they look great.

As far as the ass end, to me, it seems like there's too much going on back there.

I pieced together something quick, just to see what I thought looked clean ( I took the ZL1 badge off of mine and think it looks better without)

Take it for what it's worth

... just and opinion.

REV 1. That's why I am on this site because of all of you. The wife and decided the stripes would look better off the bumper, so rev1. Will decide the rest after some thought. Like everyone here, we all have different ideas.

I have noticed traveling around the country there is quite a bit of difference in styles and trends for the Camaro. What they like in the south may be quite different everywhere in the country and vs.

I like the stripe on the hood, it's a different look.
Having trouble with the roof not lining up with the hood, I'm old school.

The multiple angled lines on the front of the hood makes it difficult to bring the stripes straight down and look right. We also looked at keeping the stripes the same width going over the roof but the stripes didn't look right they were too wide. If we continued those wide stripes over the roof and down the back deck lid across the spoiler they would have been way too wide on the spoiler. Much harder to stripe a ZL1 compared to an SS.

Your wife has a good eye ... rev 1 does look good.

I have the stock center solid stripe and always considered bringing from the hood scoop to the fender in front

Looks great! Really fits the body style and nice take on throw back to the first gen. Very cool!
