FYI - Rally Stripes Will Be Factory Installed
Effective 8.24.09 if you ordered your car with rally stripes they will be installed at the factory. No longer will this be a dealer installed option unless you order them seperate from your car.
All Rally Stripes will be installed in Oshawa effective with production the week of August 24, 2009. Impact: • The current Rally Stripes that are offered as LPO - Dealer Installed Accessories will be discontinued as of Monday, August 24, 2009, and replaced by Oshawa installed Rally Stripes. Black Rally Stripes Discontinued LPO: VZG New RPO: C3O Silver Rally Stripes Discontinued LPO: VZF New RPO: C2U Orange Rally Stripes Discontinued LPO: VYO New RPO: C2T Cyber Gray Rally Stripes Discontinued LPO: VYY New and Current RPO: B7W White Rally Stripes Discontinued LPO: VYZ New and Current RPO: B7X • The Cyber Gray and White Rally Stripes will retain their current RPO code, but will expand so that the RPO is available on all Camaro models (currently, the stripes are limited to 2LT and 2SS models only). • All orders currently scheduled to be produced the week of August 24, 2009, will have their respective LPO Rally Stripes code removed, and the new RPO Rally Stripes code added. These units will have the Rally Stripes installed at Oshawa prior to shipping to the dealer after August 24, 2009. • The new factory installed Rally Stripes will continue to be offered as “over-the-counter” accessories, in the event a customer desires the stripes after their vehicle is produced. • The MSRP for these stripes will remain at $470. Action Required: • The new Rally Stripes RPO codes will be available for ordering in “Quick Spec” starting Saturday, August 29, 2009, and the normal Order Workbench Configurator starting Thursday, September 3, 2009. • Dealers should continue to use the current Rally Stripes LPO codes until the new RPO codes are introduced. Orders with the current Rally Stripes LPO codes scheduled to be produced the week of Monday, August 24, 2009, will automatically be changed by Order Fulfillment to the new RPO codes. • Dealers should start to utilize the new Rally Stripes RPO codes the week of Monday, August 31, 2009. |

All cars that have LPO ordered Rally Stripes will be factory installed. The good news is the quality should be consistant rather than the various reports of quality received at the dealers.
The bad news is that if they are using the same methods as in the past, expect to add at least 2-3 weeks to the shipping time of your car after production. If it really is the same method, speed of production and all ordered cars are sent to be done I would realistically expect there to be at least 4-6 weeks added to the end of production. Lets all hope that they have decided to go this route based on the fact that they can do them at the same speed as production. |

Scotty told me stripes have been delaying delivery 2 weeks. I have seen many others waiting as well.
Chevymuscle311 - being yours only took 1 day I think this might be a sign that they have changed the process and that is why they are installing at the factory for all orders. |

That sounds a whole lot more reasonable, 3 weeks for some stripes is just rediculous!

Factory stripes delayed my car two weeks. That was a long time ago though, I'm sure they got it down now. The install quality was superior. You should all be pleased.

My work order completed with the VIN assigned on the 25th and was "available to ship" on the 27th. I was able to see where it was In Transit - truck on Camaro tracking prior to "available to ship" - that would have been trucked back and forth to get the stripes. They are NOT taking 2 weeks to add stripes - more like 2 days. |

It is worth noting that the stripes are not or at least were not being installed at the factory but rather by a third party supplier not far from the Oshawa Plant. If they are now installing all colors, not just the two previously, then I would expect this to add some delays, just my 2 cents worth.
