Know i'm asking for it but.....

Need the length and width dimensions of the gransport stripes that were on the vettes. I searched here and through google and have found pics but no actual measurments. I figure i'm gonna take some flak for even asking about this but i saw them on a 4th gen tonight and really like the look. I'm getting some silver vinyl scraps from the decal place that i can cut down to work. I figure the car is getting painted this summer so i might as well play with some looks a little. If i dont liek em i can jsut peel em off.

I was also considering black but not sure if it will stand out as much as the silver would on a teal car.

I think it could look good, but I think your car looks real nice being stock. Put some hood blisters and that would look killer!

Waiting for some touchup to dry and then i'm gonna go do em. Decided on black for now casue i had the vinyl probaly gonna do them 4.5 inches wide. That seems to be about the size of em i've seen in the pics.
