I like the stripes but should take off the emblems so it doesn't say Z28 twice.

To be honest, normally I don't like the hockey stripe but I think it looks good on your car. Nice job.

I agree with the emblem parts. here is what my car looked like with "2" emblems:




Now this is my suggestion to you, take it or leave it, its your car. but i think it would look SWEET if you did this like i did before i got my car painted. put the stock emblem in the stripe instead. And its not that hard to do:

I have thought about the stock eblem in the stripe, but i really dont wanna move it. I think im just gonna put either "LT1" there or "5.7" Or "5.7L" What you guys think.


And thanks a ton for the compliments.

Those are the best hocky stripes I have seen so far. I like the long ones better than the short ones. They also look thinner than some of the others.

looks nice! I'd ditch the emblems, as already mentioned. Or, maybe find some 71-72 Z28 emblems and put those inside the stripe.

I like hockey stripes, so it looks good but IMO I'd rather they not go all the way to the back of the car. I'v seen the shorter ones they look really good.
