35th anniversary stripes peeling need something new
Here's a recent shot of my car. The 35th stripes have been peeling for a while but pretty much only I notice. I'd like to replace them with the shorter style that end on the front bumper. I was tossing around getting a gunmetal / grey color to match my wheels. Has anyone seen this color stripes on a Bright Red camaro? I cannot for the life of me find one picture.
I was also tossing around the idea of a grey manta ray but once again I've yet to see it.
Thanks Guys

i would get the shorter stripes and i would clear coat on top of them for extra protection and to prevent future peeling. How long have you had them? because i used to have a graphics shop and they shouldn't peel for a good 7-10 years if they are quality. I also like the darker idea. I just dont like the little checkers, if you did all solid it would look better, is that considered the manta? Sorry, firebird guy here

when i first bought my car the front bumper clear coat was gone and the stripes had peeled off really bad... so i had it repainted and found this place by googleing something and i only bought the top section, they had other colors and designs but i dont remember the company's name.... i wanted to do what you are wanting to do like my dad's 70 camaro stripes are but i just thought it didnt look "right"... so this is what i did and i think it looks 100x better. just throwin some options your way.

The car has been driven year round since I have been the owner (4 years or so) and the stripes were on the car before I bought it. Rain/Sleet snow so they seem to have done their job. Previous owner said they were from Phoenix

Yeah its no 35th anniversary car and I'm happy its not since I dont have a garage. The previous owner had SS badging on it too which I have removed.

So are your stripes the same stock color or slightly darker then?
Thanks so far guys!

3rdgendecals.com if you want to get a new set of 35th Anniversary stripes or any style stripe kit for a camaro, even the manta is available.
I bought a set of sideflags from them at the beginning of the year, no longer have these stripes on the car, but the silver metallic color they offer is a very close match to my OE 35th stripes. Just a bit darker but then again, there new compared to old stripes that are faded now. Just thought i would let you know...
