I had a guy that does pinstriping for cars! He used a 2in. stripe w/ 1/4 on the top and bottom! He had the 305 TPI cuton labeled!! It really brought the hood to life~

The paint will be a year old in June!!! I had the opportunity to mix the color myself! I added some more pearl to the color to give it the Brighter than stock color! Thanx for all of your compliments, I'm very happy w/ how everything came out!

Just need to paint the headlight pockets black or get blackouts or something forthe front, and its all that much better

Looks great though!

I usually dont like that hood on Camaro's, but I can honestly say you pulled it off VERY well and it looks mint. There really isn't anything on that car that I would change, it all goes together nicely. Awesome car

Looks awesome!

I would also vote for possibly another inch in the front, would make the front look even meaner!

Nice package, well done!

That's the first Camaro I've seen that looks absolutely perfect with a RA hood. I've always felt if you have the RA or even a cowl hood you gotta have the spoiler to back it up or it just looks like an unfinished build.
