All all the Rally Strips Decals?

I ordered my car Garnet Red with Black Rally Stripes. These stripes were cheaper and installed at the factory. Are any of the Rally stripes painted or is it decals from factory for 440 and LPO decals for 690. I'm so confused. Will my Rally stripes be painted or decals.

Thank you. Now I wish I would not have ordered them.

Don't get sucked in that GM is the only people that do decals .....there are two great vendors here; big worm and rider graphics, the do exactly the same decals and you can get them installed locally by tint/wrap shops with just as High quality… There is nothing special about GM striping......

I understand, they only cost me 450 from GM. I just don't care for decals and I would not have ordered them if I knew. Live and Learn. I'm going to lease, for 3 years and hopefully step into a 2019 ZL1.

Big Worm inserts in carbon fiber

I just received my silver metallic stripe kit from Bigworm for my GT Coyote Red and will install today & tomorrow if extra attention is needed, instructions come with each kit as well as some tools needed. I'll post pic's soon. Did not like the stripes, may use roof decal though. Here's the carbon fiber accents.

The dealer ones are not bad. it is covered under the warranty if there are bubbles or if anything peels.

I had them installed by my local Chevy dealer and they look great on my Camaro. I have no regrets.

Doesn't all the manufacturers use vinyl for stripes? I didn't think any of them actually painted on stripes.

most use vinyl. Body shops by request can paint them on.

Yes it does cost a bit more to have your stripes painted on, but there's two big advantages to it.

1. You can have them painted in ANY color or shade you want. On my 2011, I had them use a pearl white.

2. No edges to worry about wax/polishes building up in nor having to be careful when polishing/waxing even with a RO machine buffer.
