i personally like the look of this camaro (not mine) i very quickly editted it and cam up with this. the stripes extended down the front fascia to the bottom. has anybody done this? also. has anybody gotten stripes on the roof?

i also editted the side markers and SS badges off as well as the reverse lights

I kinf of dont like the stripes going all the way down the rear fascia

opinions?

not bad... unique thats for sure...but yet very subtle and clean...

thats what i was thinking too. but i real do like the front with the stripes down the fascia. i also like the vinyl around the fog lights like Bumblebee and the vinyl on the bottom of the bottom grill

what's up with the cheesy fake looking black area around the fog lamps?

the front looks very nice but the rear looks a little bit off...just doesnt fit very well. i'm thinking if doing the same thing on the RJT but the rear does look right...

I'm not a big fan of the stripes flowing all of the way down. The rear kills it but also the pic doesn't show the black stripes flowing off the rear bumper due to it being just editing giving it a funny look. Maybe on a different color scheme it may look better but not yellow & black. Just a thought on a color scheme, why not do the center single stripe that flows onto the rear decklid like the 4th gen GMMG ZL1 cars? Maybe a better design for those who go with the ram air hoods but it could work with the cowl hoods too.

I think if the 5th GEN's didn't look more like the 1969's, the non-traditional striping would work better. To me and I'm sure others will chime in, running the stripes to the ground is a Ford "thing" on Mustangs and thus isn't well received.

Honestly, I think a poll of 2010 Mustang owners would cringe if their stripes stopped at the top of the hood and say "eewwww, that looks more like a Chevy!, make the stripes go all the way to the ground"

The rear plate just doesn't look right on top of the stripes!

Head to tail stripes are nice and some folks have done them on their camaros. I would do mine but it will forever remind me of my rival, the mustang. The stripes look much better when they taper down the nose and butt. Changing the bowtie colors to match the stripes or the car would be nice too. Here's a pic of one in VR.

Sorry. I do not like it at all.
