no i'm looking for a picture of it...i have a red iroc, and i was thinking that would look real sweet in black if I did the super snake style stripe down the middle...

I like the look on steve's car, it kinda gave me a visualization, but a camaro with this stripe would help out tons...damn i wish i was good at photoshopping....i wish i had the program to actaully figure out how to use it..

that looks good steve...i would've fattened up the stripe a little bit and spaced out the pinstripes a little bit more...looks great tho ....this might be a possibility when i get my car painted in 2 weeks...i think that would look real awesome if done right..i saw a new vette at a show a few months ago, and it was painted that cadillac diamond pearl or whatever with a nice red stripe like that...looked awesome...

if anybody else has some pics of this style stripe, feel free to chime in here...

got some supersnake pics...if somebody is good at photoshopping and has some extra time on there hands, could you put these same stripes in black on a red z28/iroc...

also how do you guys think the side stripe would look on a camaro...it would match the type stripe, and wouldn't be too gaudy if done is black, then put like IROC Z in there instead of snake or whatever they got in that one...

here's the pics...

I think the side stripe would be a bit much. I do like the single stripe though.

Reminds me of the Gran sport vette does anyone have a pic of one to compare the stripes.

I think it would look great with black on red as long as you paint the headlight buckets black.

yea, i would have the headlight buckets black, then the turn signals black, and then what do you guys think about the taillights? totally nightshade them? i have 2 cans, i'm afraid to spray it tho...

then my windows would be all blacked out 5%...what do you guys think, does it sound like it'll look real good?

There used to be a black one with a silver stripe around town here. The stripe was just on the hood and decklid and looked like ***. It would probably look good if you did it all the way to the bottom of the gfx tho

...then it would look like a Ford!!! Acutally, thats a pretty neat idea and it would probably look damned good providing the right colours were used and the stripes both down the sides and over the top were in correct proportioin.. I'd like to see it done (photoshopped)
