2012 Vert Inferno Orange (maybe??) Hood Decals

[MSgt O]

Sooooooo..the damned cat..had the cover off her cleaning inside and something spooked the cat. Jumped up onto the hood and left me 3 very nice "holes" in the hood stripe decal. I, for the life of me, cannot figure out the part number to order a new set of stripes. Is there something somewhere that tells me what they were? She's a 2012 SS/RS Vert Summit White with the Inferno orange interior and Im guessing here, Inferno Orange stripes.

Any help would be appreciated!

Check out this thread, I didn't read thru it all, but it seems they aren't produced anymore.

You may also want to talk to your favorite body shop, there are companies that can replicate nearly any stripe package. I'd rather have factory stuff but most of the time it's just no longer available. I have the "accessory" 45th anniversary stripes on mine and they are water spotted. I couldn't find these anywhere!

Thanks Jewld and 45! Called the dealer and he did indeed verify it was Inferno Orange as they only made 5 colors that year! But now 45 has me thinking of having them painted on since I will never be changing the color scheme of the car....decisions...decisions...Its only money right?!?

Painted is a good option and will withstand the elements better since you will have a clear coat above it. What I was

Talking about was a vynil decal that’s exactly like your original

Yea, if you intend on really keeping the color scheme you have, I have seen Camaro's over here with the stripes painted and cleared, and gotta say, they look MUCH better looking painted than vinyl, no doubt!! And easier to care for. I am debating painting the raised center section of my cowl hood a gloss black and take my gradient flame stripes off as they have a couple stone chips in them, and they show.

I was following what you were saying 45, and after looking at decals, the paint idea kept coming up in various websites. Called my paint fella today, and he can get the correct paint. Now just have to wait until summer...Its -3 today and snowing like no end in sight!

I dig the flames Jewld..you should keep them in one fashion or another..

Thanks again. You guys are always awesome when questions come up!

Not what I was saying but painting them on is definitely the best but costly. What I was referring to is that there are aftermarket companies that can replicate the vinyl stripe you have.
