Hockey stripes actually look good on lt1 camaros. Im not sure if theyre the same, but ive also seen flat black or matte stripes on lt1s and they look clean too. They dont scream for attention, but they definately make the car stand out in person.

However, like any sticker or decal, im not sure if youll get sick of it after a while.

I've always liked satin stripes on a gloss car. It "flows" and looks better than flat IMO..yea your paying the extra money to barely see the difference but it looks badass IMO

glossy > satin > matte > flat

its hard to look for pictures cus everyone thinks theyre all the same except for gloss

I think flat strips with the gunmetal on the wheels would look good.
