I like the stripes on most colors, but I don't think I'll go with stripes on my cyber gray. I had stripes for a long time on my Mustang, and it looked great, but then I got tired of them and wanted the clean, sleek, blacked out look. I decided for now I'm not going to do stripes on the Camaro, but have thought about hood spears.

Personally, my fave Camaro color always has been and will be Synergy Green. I was DYING to find one in my price range in that color, but bought at the end of the year (June) and it was too late to order one. Should have done it sooner but it's all good-- Cyber gray was my second choice and I got that

I also really liked Aqua Blue Metallic too. Something really unique about that color!

yep i like the synergy green to but that is what everyone around here has so i went with summit white but my girlfriend also wanted me to get green to so i guess thats 3 for synergy green, 1 for white and 1 for grey, and 2 for no stripes! lets see if the tables can turn on the green, and no stripes!

I went with Black with white stripes on my 2012 2SS/rs. Just like the look black projects - Kind of like the F117A Stealth . - Don't like the bright colors anymore. As a matter of fact - all of our cars over the past 10 years have been black.

None, i know what they would look like after 2 years on my DD that sits in the FL sun at work everyday. No stripes was actually requirement for me when looking for the car as well. I just don't feel like dealing with removal in 3 years when stripes are faded and cracked, and no amount of treatment will prevent vinyl from turning out badly here.

Plain IBM for me at the moment. I love the look of the silver stripes on IBM but I'm not crazy about vinyl stripes and I'm not ponying up the dough for painted ones anytime soon

I will NEVER....EVER...EVER buy another black car again. It made me go OCD crazy and constantly having it clean. The car looks mint, but hoooollllyyyy shiiit does it take up my time. You can drive down a block and the car is dirty.

If I could do it again, I would get ABM...that color has really grown on me.

Exactly why I did NOT want black for the Camaro. Owned a black mustang and it was a: unbearably hot and b: impossible to keep clean.

A California Duster helps a little, but only so much.
