      ^^the only way to go if you want stripes on the sides.

      Edit: After seeing your other post, four stripes is way over the top, and I would advise having one or the other, not both.

          It already stands out quite a bit, that blue is very bright and eye catching. IMO an accent color should be just that; an accent color. It's not two-tone, it's black with blue accents.

          When it comes down to it, it's your call, do whatever you want. But I know I'm not alone in thinking both hockey and racing strips are too much.

            like i mentioned in the other post, i like the way it looks. If you are going to keep the blue, finalize/touch up the stripes a bit, make it look a bit cleaner. then i woudl get clear corners/turn signals, ditch the window sticker/banner. Have you ever thought about doing a matte grey and black accent paint job?

                  I just saw pics of your car. If you put any more stripes on it, it'll look like it got raped by a paint-monster!

                  I am not at all a fan of light blue stripes on a matte finish Camaro, but it's your ride...not mine. I also think the inner fender wells should be left in black.

                  Next time you're painting, try to use something like 1/2" wide vinyl tape. You can contour it into turns/bends much easier than standard masking tape. This way, you won't get any rough curves like you did on the nose. Then use regular masking tape and polycoated masking paper (or something similar) to cover the rest of the exterior.
