front bumper is too rounded for something like that, it would look out of place IMO....might work on the 2010 Camaro though.....

Do a search. There was a picture of someone who actually did that kind of stripe and it wound up being across the middle of the hood and looked like ***. Just go with a hockey stripe or SS stripes, those at least look good on a 4th gen.

Someone did it. It looked terrible. It's fine on the 1st gens because they have a square front end, but on the 4th gen it doesn't go at all. They are too round for them.

I agree. It does not look good with the rounded front end the 4th gens have.
