Wouldn't the paint around the stripes be slightly faded by then? If you took the stripes off you'd end up having true rjt stripes on a faded rjt car, right?

The various pic's also show a different wheel package, different color cars, different dealer tags and the 2LT transformed into a SS. Your posts indicate the dealer is a relative in one and a friend in the other ............. any info clarifying these?

That is not his car, just pics.

I like them, I would vote to keep them.

From experience, it would take years for the paint to fade on a clear coated car. A quick compounding and color polishing would resolve the issue if it ( finish fading) would occur....

I didn't realize the RJT with black rally stripes is a pretty rare combo though.

yea, my apologies Caspers2SSRS

those pics are a random collection bc i actually have not seen my car in person.

i chose thos pix bc they represent some of the things that will resemble the end-product

....i wish SLP did my stripes as opposed to the GM ones, but both are good (SLP is just longer as u mentioned)

so basically I robbed:
- shuttduck
- edmunds inside line for the SLP camaro
- photographer of the Paddock SLP camaro
- yolike.com

all the material belongs to them and none of it is my own
