Default 35th stripes on a non SS hood

Just wondering If the the stripes would look good on a vfn 3" or a z28 hood. Or would it just look out of place because of the scoop missing(z28 hood).

It doesn't necessarily look bad, but it does look like it's missing something. I prefer them with the hood scoop rather than without. Check out this link for stripes on the z28 hood and click on the pictures to see more. http://www.3rdgendecals.com/35thZ28_98.htm

personally i think it looks like something is missing with anniv. stripes on the flat hood. When you say VFN 3", are you referring to the 3" SS?? if so, that may not look too bad.

Ls1 Fonzie - Thanks for the pics, it does look like its missing something.

Crimson - I meant the vfn 3" cowl, like the one on your old camaro.

i dont see how you could even add those stripes to the cowl. if you want stripes for that hood, it be best to either get some custom painted, or just go with something like this: http://fourthcircledesigns.com/produ...products_id=40

Those look better on the flat hood, I would do those if you wanted stripes on a stock Z28 hood.

Someone on here has done it, if i can find the pic. Ill post them in here but its not bad though. I would think a custom style 35th stripe down the middle would be cool.
