Devil's Tail - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

A few weeks ago I had the GFX painted and installed, the Synergy Green Door Panels installed and the big Chevy Bowtie on the Grill and Trunk replaced with the SS Badges. I just picked up the car today where I had the Devils Tail Stripes, the side vent stripes and the SS emblem added on the side of the GFX. I stopped on the way home and took a few pictures. We had talked about doing a small stripe on the side or just doing a pin stripe. My wife saw and really liked the Devils Tail stripe. I was a little leary on how the it would look, but after seeing it now I have to say I think it looks really good. Just goes to show the wife has good taste. In the pictures you really can't see the side vent stripes, but up close they also look good. It was my idea to put the SS emblems on the GFX just in front of the back tires. I started with a beautiful car and just wanted to add a few things that I thought would just set it off a bit. I did not want to add to much and mess it up. I am really happy with the way it has all turned out and would love to hear your thoughts.

sweet looking ride!!

Beautiful! Side gills are perfect, just enought to make them stand out a little more.

If you were to change it any....maybe add a Hertage grille? I like that look, but that's me.

I had the work done near Green Bay. Bergstrom in Neenah painted and installed the GFX. The Stripe Guy out of Greenville put the stripes on. My dealer in Waupun installed the MBRP exhaust. All were great to work with and I would recommend them to anyone. I took the pictures in Waupun. The first few were taken near the grade school and the last few were taken in the cemetary. You would have though it was a Mustang dealer, things were kind of dead there.

Nice job! She looks very good. Synergy green is the best color.

Rookie50 · 04-30-2011, 01:08 PM

Very cool looking.

boltmark · 04-30-2011, 01:25 PM

Looks good. You had them painted on correct?

camarocpa · 04-30-2011, 06:16 PM

Too busy looking for my taste. Love the old school badging though!

One question though... I'll be moving to WI soon and hate the thought of a front plate. Any issues without one yet?

SIN R G · 04-30-2011, 08:35 PM

Boltmark - No, they are not painted on. I checked into having the factory stripes taken off and painted on as well as the stripe and it was way more then I could afford now. I do agree would have been better painted. This only cost me 400, and the quote I got for painting them was 3,700.

Camarocpa - I have only had the Camaro on the road now for 3 months and have not had a problem with no front plate yet. I hope I don't get forced to put one on, it looks so much nicer without it.

Very nice! Great color choice.

Looks really good.

I've really been considering the devil tail stripes for my SIM. I'm leaning that way more and more.
