I've seen the stripes on several Camaros on the board here and thought it looked pretty tight... never saw it on a Formy though. How much are they? Go for it, be the first!

trust me, board consensus is that GS stripes suck.

And no, he wouldn't be the first "formy" with GS stripes. Black is a pretty safe color for decals like GS stripes. My set cost $30ish for stripes on both sides

My friends up here have been trying to get me to throw some on mine bc all of them did it.. cts-v, gto, sti, c4 and ????...and they all look badass on their cars.. i just make fun of them and they make fun of me for not being "IN" the club... I just think it would look dumb on mine with polished wheels.. But I bet it would look pretty damn sweet on yours with the black z06 wheels. Still gotta see what you have done to my uncles formula sometime soon! im headed back to DP today so maybe i will see ya around
