Painted NS1 style stripes

The car was in the shop and it presented the perfect opportunity to get stripes painted on. I love the NS1 style by night shades so much that's what I went with. Check out here to order they look amazing. http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showth...&highlight=ns1

I'm going to plasti dip my wheels, bowtie delete and rear blackout tomorrow. It's really an intimidating look I love the style.

I agree. They created and produced these stripes. They seem like nice guys. I hope they don't mind.

I would call it flattery, it's cool someone took the initiavte (sp) to get the stripes painted on, looks good, but be careful about doing something like this without permission.

It's like when Roger from emblempros is asked to do the batman symbol, he can't because of no licensing or permission. Could cause some uproar from some, others welcome it.

Maybe OP had permission. In which case, that would be a big form of flattery.

He just pm'd me, he's good as long as I give him credit. Honestly it didn't even occur to me. I doubt every vendor gets permission from Hasbro, paramount, or gm for their replica stripe. Or t1, t2, t3 style etc. I was already planning on buying them but had mentioned in other threads of theirs that I planned on painting them on. I personally like the look of matte black vinyl better it just made sense to paint then since my front end and roof were getting painted. No offense meant at all love this style looks amazing in pics but so much better in person. Just wish I had the balls to go with a more interesting colour. Another benefit of vinyl, if I went with a accent colour and in a year or two want to take it off I can. Painted your making a near permanent commitment. Seth and Colin were very cool and have a great product.

Thanks everyone for looking out for us!!!
I have spoken with Big Squirrel, and we have came to an agreement.
I believe it was done in innocence.
This is NOT the first time our design has been taken without our permission. Nor will it be the last. Unfortunately.
All we can do is offer our customers the very BEST customer service and the highest quality products. In hopes that we are given credit as the originators. And purchase your NS kits from us.
All else have copied and stolen our design. Please remember that when purchasing these kits.
We will continue to try our very best to win your loyalty.

Seth and Colin

NS-1 is the sweetest stripe design for the 5th Gen. However applied. First time I've seen painted. NS-1 FTW vinyl, painted, magnetic, etc!!!

Well you definiately got my loyalty. Hell I actually had a guy at work, joking of course, wanted to steal my car cause of the paint. I told him thanks, but it was a vinyl striping kit not paint. The man does not own a camaro but gave props to the designer, night shades colin and seth .
