There not over played, there OG

Everyone did it who was around or on this forum for awhile, looks clean who gives a **** if its not a vette, but its ok to put on Z06 looking badges.


Better than all those damn stripes people are putting on the sides and the hood of there cars at the same time now....

Sticker ***** fest at its finest

Camaro yes t/a no. There is now telling how many compliments I got about them on my old car and I have a brand new set waiting to go on my new car. I'm just going to put them on there a decide if I like them on my new one or not. I agree they are a love hate thing and they look better on some cars than others. Search my user name and you should find pics of my old car with them installed. NBM with Metallic silver stripes looks great IMO!!!! Oh and afterthoughtsauto has the best looking ones that i've seen. Others are to wide!!!

I like them, they add a little flare, without drawing too much attention

IMO, yes they look a hell of a lot better ..... Just remember, its an opinion, you do not have to take my opinion to heart, b/c it is mine, yours does not have to be the same, so take or leave it.....

Everyone realizes those stripes are only supposed to be on the driver's side, if your going off of 90's Grand Sport history.

I have them on mine, drivers side only. I think they go well with my Berger and hoodscoop fill. I think it depends on color and other apprearance mods that depends on if the stripes look good. For people saying they only belong on the GS Vette, ill back up the answer to cars in the Le Mans. well-known companies don't make the stripes for our cars for no reason. Its like saying z06 wheels only belong on a z06
