Took my Camaro downtown for an hour this afternoon... - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

And came back with THESE!

The hash mark and bowtie color is aqua blue metallic to match under the hood and the interior, which I've custom painted ABM.

At first I didn't know if I liked the hashes because I got a color that was really nowhere close to the custom ABM I was waiting for. Now that it's right... I think this looks BOSS.

It's amazing in the sunlight. But I'd love to know what y'all think.

very cool

Kurushio · 11-17-2011, 04:09 PM

I still like the ABM more. Id i had that i would want to peel off the rest of the IBM for the ABM but still nice. The ABM really pops out at you.

thats so awesome!!!!!

I think more people should get hash marks that are just a step up or down on the color wheel, not necessarily the other side.

Looks really clean and subtle

toesuf94 · 11-17-2011, 04:17 PM

Sweet! And I love your plates!

FlyingTiger65 · 11-17-2011, 04:17 PM

Looks good, good color combo!!!!

suplex · 11-17-2011, 04:21 PM

I'm not sure if I like the Hash marks more because you also don't have Racing Stripes on the hood. But to clarify...I LOVE the Hash Marks!

I've been thinking about getting them just on one side of my Camaro. Being that my car is Yellow I would go with Black, but I have to debate about which side I would pick.

I like yours a lot.

THANK YOU!

I really wasn't sure how it was going to look; I was pretty apprehensive. Which is why I chose vinyl instead of paint. When I get them painted on I think it'll be really boss.

Haha thank you!! I swear, I have someone every day tell me that they love the plates-- and half of them don't even compliment the car! Just the tag!

I had no idea it'd get such a reaction. Especially women, I've gotten high fives a few times at car shows.

Like I said I really wasn't sure about the color combo but now that we've laid it down, I think I'm in love. I'm trying to decide if I should do the gill inserts aqua blue, too, instead of the silver that's on there now.

I can't do racing stripes, I don't want to cover up that much real estate with a paint job as beautiful as IBM

Edited to add: I WISH THE MODS HADN'T MOVED THIS! I wanted to get as many opinions as possible since my mom is gonna kill me for putting stripes on it.

gelboy1015 · 11-17-2011, 04:45 PM

Looks good! These are different ones from the stripes you had at the Tulsa meet right? I thought about doing matte black ones on mine but I already have the rally stripes so it would be redundant.

FlyingTiger65 · 11-17-2011, 04:59 PM

Yes do the gills will help with the Hash Marks

FlyingTiger65 · 11-17-2011, 05:01 PM

And if you do the race stripes keep the same color combo

Yes, definitely different

Those were just a test to see if I liked the design. I think these look MUCH better!

Yeah I wouldn't overstripe! Then again if the car is black you might not notice it as much and it might look cool?
