Thinking about putting some strips on my ride. Anyone with some pics to share? Would like to see how they look. Thanks

I like that very much, are those painted or where did you buy? Did you install yourself?

Is that yellow on a red Vette? I remember seeing a picture of a C6 (red) with yellow wheels!! ouch, IMO this is a color combo that is not right, kind of reminds me of Ronald McDonald! No offense though!:cheers:

I like it, clean and respectable! I like how you sort of singled out the scoop on the hood, nice work!

I would have to disagree, the colors jump out, and grabs your attention. These colors make the car unique, unlike "most", which is why the car will grab attention. Just my opinion :cheers:

I have an Artic White 99 Coupe. I recently put the Ron Fellows hash mark stripes on mine and it looks pretty freakin cool. LOTS of compliments.

I'm not really into striping or custom paint on Corvettes either.

Or the Hulkster! No offense either cause I have seen that same striping on a Silver C5 w/ Black stripes.

Ultimately you have to make that car your own. If you dig it, then thats all that counts. I'm sure there is someone that doesn't like the stripes on mine. Tough Crap! I love it. Its mine and you know its me instantly when I pull up. Thats what its all about right?:cheers:

I did the whole car in an afternoon... lots of measuring though!! Stripes easy to install, High quality vinyl, use the old soapy water in a bottle trick. Not hard IMO.
Good Luck!!

Go to corvettestripes.com
They have lots of examples. I would use vinyl before paint.
