I like the pin stripes. They are quite unusual on a Camaro, but that's a good thing.

Yes you can put 20" rims on the car. But of course, the tires will be expensive compared to what you're running now.

Looks like they did really good job on the pinstripes which adds a little color. If you decide to remove them its really easy to do yourself. 3M makes a pinstripe removal wheel that fits in a drill and it will remove pinstripes or decals easily and will not harm the paint. I used one on my 4th gen some years ago to remove pinstripes and couldnt believe how well it worked. You can get it online for around $40.

I dig pinstriping myself--Hand Painted ones
Mine were done by Pinstriping by Menke--Painesville Ohio

Those look uniquely clean. I'd keep them.

Excellent deal! That would dress it up nicely.

I really like the look. I personally would keep the wheels too, they add to the overall retro look.

JLSuperfly · 03-23-2016, 10:19 PM

Looks good as is.

OHIOSS · 03-23-2016, 10:20 PM

They look like they were done well, no question I would keep them.

I think they look damn good. I had them painted on a Challenger that I used to own.

Yes they will. I came from a Jeep to a Camaro, too lol

Olddudesrule · 03-23-2016, 10:59 PM

I think they're tasteful and show off the lines of the car. I say keep them.

and congrats on the new ride.

Like others, I've never been a big fan of pin striping, but those were well thought out & done ... they look good & I'd keep them.
