Hey this is my 1984 Z28. I took it to this body shop my dad sends all his work vehicles to. They do excellent work, since my dad is a big time costumer they were hooking my Z up for free. I was always a fan of the stripes that were on the Anniv. edition, so I wanted something similar to it. I know they aren't exactly the same as GM as far as spacing, but I love the way they came out! They hadn't put the clear coat on in the picture yet. I will add before and after photos. I don't know if I should paint the area where the lights are at black, or just keep it white. I kind of like the way it looks with just white. We are going to be selling the current wheels / tires on it and going with a pair of Summit Star Wheels ( not sure what size yet) I would love to hear your opinions. Thanks
wow your Dad must be one heck of a customer! looks good so far, should look great once your finished.

Thanks! Yeah he is, he is a maintenance manager and all his damaged vehicles go to them, they are a great shop that do good work. I don't know if this sounds right but the guy said it was about a $6,000 paint job. I love the way it looks. I am very pleased.

I'd say thats possible, by the pics I can see they fully guide coated the car which IMO typically means they're doing a good job.

Very nice i like it, thats one hell of a freebie there 6 sounds a bit high but u just saved 4g's easy kudos to u and ur pops post a pic of the finish product when its done
looks like they did a hell of a job for free its nice to know someone who knows someone
one thing that i dont like is now you have a huge gap between your hood and nose where as you had practically nothing before

hey man that camaro is so sweet lookin, Has a touch of old school with the older style stock ground effects and the steel ralley wheels. The paint looks great. Keep that thing doing good. Does it have one exhaust pipe? just wonderin. -Matt
That's very clever how the stripes were incorporated into the design of the hood.
