Can someone with photochop skills put a Z28 stripe on my car in gray . I think I would like a updated version to go with the modern wheels. and maybe nothing on the spoilers. Any help would be appreciated

I have thought about putting the stripe on the front fender like a Grand Sport Corvette. How do ya'll think that would look in a dark gray ? I've seen Vettes with them on one fender an on both ,what's the reason for that ?

Here's a really down and dirty mock-up. I'm at work so not a lot of time, but maybe someone with more time could give you a cleaner version.
This should give you a rough idea though.

Stripes add 25hp. Didn't you know that ? I may not beat the Duster but you'll see me in the mirror quite a bit . As long as I'm having a blast I'm HAPPY!!!! Oh yeah' After I talked to you I had a guy in Walmart ask what I was doing with a case of Corona and a ball bat and I told him I was working on a Camaro :-)

I like the // stripes, they need to be just slightly less vertical IMO.
I would even try a dark charcoal to match the wheel centers.
This is the angle the Grand Sport uses, but you could make them slightly more vertical than this,
that would fit the vehicle lines better.
My rule of thumb is to mimic the windshield angle - JMHO.

I think it would be cool if you added a small pinstripe behind each GS stripe that is red in color. It would bring out the caliper color and add some more visual interest.
