Camaro Hood Stripes Package details (+ IMAGES) - Page 13 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

vladkgb · 04-13-2009, 02:14 PM

Currently im interested in the orange/black rally stripes, or black/orange rally stripes. I've seen orange and grey stripes and i think black would look better, but have not seen any black/orange. Can anyone photshop black/orange or put pics of other cars with this color combo.

my dealer has already said I could have the stripes painted on instead of the stickers. They will do it for $125. Is that a good deal?

Red Hot · 08-03-2009, 08:03 PM

Sounds really cheap. Does that include clearcoat?

jkelly · 08-03-2009, 08:07 PM

I dont know I was just glad I did'nt have to have stickers! I'll be sure and ask next time I talk to my sales rep

It can't be done for that. Materials alone would be half of that.

That sucks and shouldnt have happened at all much less this soon. :(

This is really making me re-consider my rally stripes... I would be so pissed if my stripes ended up looking like this within a year without anyone physically messing with it. If this is natural, then no way with the stripes.

There is no way the dealer could paint stripes correctly at that price. You are talking a minimum of 5 hours labor time. The paint and clear coat will cost more than 125 unless they are using spray cans.........I would look at their work before they touch your Camaro

Moorepheus · 08-04-2009, 09:03 PM

I just did some searches on the web. I found some places that state it could cost from $500 to $2000 to paint stripes on a vehicle. I don't know how true that is. But what's labor rate at now? 90 or more @ 5 hours like DZbob said, that 450.

Also, someone said, do a clear coat over the top of the vinyl. Really, can they do that? Would they not have to at least rough up the surface of the hood already so the clear coat would not peel off?

I have a VR V6 camaro....what color stripes and style do you suggest??

TJ91 · 11-25-2009, 04:49 PM

i miss those pre pro lights

HashimAzzouz · 11-27-2009, 09:32 PM

Shame that is why I prefer the painted stripes over the vinyl

i remember seeing photos like these (can't recall if it was these exact photos or not) they were show cars/demo cars/dealer cars or something of the sort. and they were subject to a lot of public viewing, and public abuse.
If i was buying a car tomorrow, i wouldn't be concerned about this as long as the car isn't going to be exposed to abuse.

Interested in Imperial Blue with hockey stripes. Yet to determine what color. Any photos with white hockey stripes or silver on IBM?
Suggestions welcomed.
