    i like the regular straight stripes, not the checkered one, or the weird angled one. also stop it at the bumper like how meatyshells has his.

    if i had the regular stock hood id go with black stripes on mine as well, my car is blue though.

      I think they'll look good on it.

      If it were my car, I'd also paint the mirrors red to match the rest of the body.

        I agree about the mirrors! The car looks great as it is ....sometimes less is more.
        Leave it alone, after U paint the mirrors

              I wouldn't paint the mirrors. I'd paint the roof black.

                        well they have a name and a paint code if its factory. I know my car was repainted with GM torch red and it has to much of an orange in the sunlight, so I was hoping to find a good color to get the car redone and cleared with.

                          thanks bro, the rims are 17in American Racing Rebels with Firestone Firehawk 275 tires, sorry that you cant see the rims in detail in that pic, ill try and find another pic. I agree with keeping it simple, i might try and photoshop it with the stripes. the color red tho is one of the main reasons i bought this camaro, it just literally amazed me when i first saw it. And with the yellow christmas tree air freshner....hahahahah hell yes

                              red mirrors, no stripes, but i'd do a hockey strip on that car since you have the black rims
