No problem.
I was actually thiinking about the solid stripe kit because I like the flow over the top and on the wing/trunk. Though the blackbird stripes are nice as well. You can get them online at phoenixgrapics.com, thirdgendecals.com, fourthcircledesigns.com......cost between $100-$200.
With regards to the keylock covers, I got them from someone on this board, though I can't remember who now? I think if you search for keylock covers, or keylock accents you'll find the guy. Sorry but I don't have any good pictures of them right now. They are a black circle with the pontiac logo in it. Looks very clean.

No no no, don't do vinyls, have the ghost stripes painted. Vinyls just can not do what paint can. Heres some pictures of ghost paint I stole from corvetteforum. Notice how they almost fade away when the light is not shining on the paint. Thats what the whole "ghost" effect is all about. You can't do that with vinyl

Actually you can do that with vinyl. I have black reflective on mine. When the light is not on it you can't even tell it is there but when it is reflecting it is really in your face. For example, in my sig you can see the bird on the side of my car but not the flames on the side of my nostrils.
i dont think you should do any stripes on it....i have black ones on my red 'vert ands its alright but it looks so much cleaner w/o them on
here is what it would look like if you used reflective:

I'll admit that I'd love to paint them on, but I'm not about to spend that kind of coin on stripes.
I really like the black reflective, except for the color when it reflects. If they made black reflective that reflected silver or blue, I'd be all over it.

i have a question, are the "blackbird" stripes the one that go on the outer and inner sides of the nostrils?
Also, what company makes the best ones? I'm having trouble finding both the inner and outer stripes
