Designed them myself & just did them today and the hood will be next week, what do you peeps think...you like?

 

I likes you had me with the first pic wonderin what was goin in the space but then i saw the second pic. Looks real sharp.

 

Thats sick dude!! whats your plans for the hood??

 

That breaks up the yellow very nicely, I love it! Whatever you do on the hood will look amazing. I think you should paint the headlight buckets black though.

 

I agree those buckets need to be black, but if thats the way you like it keep it those stripes look amazing

 

All I can say is ****, love the car and the stripes but I wouldn't do anything on the hood (it's my personal choice)!
----------
I have to say again your car is so PURDY I would be scared to drive it. Too many idiot drivers in this world, I would have that car on my mantle

 

I liked it before... not saying it looks bad, but I just like it better before! I am also not a huge fan of stickers (vinyl) on cars that have been so well detailed with custom paint.

 

I disagree, those stripes make her flow.

 

SWEET. Leave it. maybe put those same 383 emblems on the side of the cowl. thats about it though.

 

I've gotta agree. I like the idea, but the before pic in your sig looks better. Sorry, I don't care for them. The 383 emblem was a nice touch though.

 

I was thinking the same thing. Just the numbers on the cowl or nothing at all. It is perfect as is.

 

Looks awsome, I hope you are not gonna do racing stripes. I would would black stripe the side of the cowl also.

 

I always thought your car needed a lil more black - great job!

 

The curve at the front is kinda funky looking but I like it overall. And don't say you designed it, that general design was born in 69!!

 

Looks Good!

I think the black really does help break up the sea of bright yellow your car was before. With bright colors like that, you almost have to have something to break it up, like stripes, or black headlight pockets, or something dark...

 

looks amazing, although in my opinion it looks better all yellow, but it still looks amazing. Honestly your camaro is in the top 5 nicest ones around in my opinion. and I realy like the 383 badge!!!!


and I wouldnt put the headlight buckets black....camaro's dont have black eyes, they give them!

 

You are correct about the general stripe...it was on the '69 but I'm talking about the curvature and size

 

I know, I was just pickin on ya. Any straight on side shots?

 

Not yet but I will get some in a few days...probably next week

 

I was gonna do something like that on my berlinetta before it got scrapped. However, i was gonna go a bit further along the car, almost to the end of the wheel well. The origin of the stripe is ofcourse first gens, but making it flow with a third-gen isnt easy.

Another suggestion, if youre gonna leave the gap, i would put the marker light in it, looks a little odd to me having the 383 right next to the marker. And put the 383 on the cowl. OR just take out the 383 and fill in the stripe.

Love the idea though, looks sharp. Your gonna have to do something to the hood now, looks a little plain.

 

dont like it where it is, i think it should had the turn signal involved . dont do the hood too just paint the headlight buckets and leave it at that .

 

looks killer! but then again sinister has one of the sickest cars on here. i luv the chick pics he has all over the web too..good job.

 

LOVE IT! Personally, I would have left the amber lights, not put on the r i c e r clear side markers, divided the stripe on the markers, instead of the 383 emblems. Or have shaved the markers completely, and did the 383 emblems, as you did do.

Just IMHO.

 

I know what you guy's are saying but if you look at a'69 car then you will see why i did mine the way they are...I wanted them to be in the middle between the marker light and nose

 

sweet car, and now with hockey sticks! cool

what's goin on the hood? i'd vote for small accents down the sides of the cowl...

 

i think so far it looks really good but i think we need to see the finished product before we pass judgement, hope to see it in person at the ccfbg show and shine at Queensway in june this year

 

Hey, i didnt realize the first gens did it the same way, i guess i never noticed cuz the marker light is so close. Anyways, looks real sharp whatever you choose to do. Btw, what size are your tires??? They look a bit different from the sig pix ive always seen.

 

Looks good dude. Can't wait to see the hood done.

 

I'd stop right there! That gives an awesome legendary touch on a sweet ride! Anything more than maybe the pockets if you like that - may push it across the line of too much IMO.

Great work, keep it up!

The tires are 225/45/17 on a 17x7 rim for the front & the rears are 245/45/17 on a 17x8 rim with a -11mm offset

 

ever since you did that, it looks like the car is missing something now. its still an awesome looking car...maybe its the headlight pockets

 

looks good. I personally would have tried something a bit different, having the stripes follow the natural curves of the nose or something..

looks great thou!

 

some may say cheesy but, i think front and rear blackouts would set that car off awesome!! it would match the stripes and breakup the paint. even give it a more agressive look, try it it would look bad a** for sure.

 

It looks good but I don't like the positioning. I think they need to be moved back and where you have the 383 emblem that's where the marker lights need to be.

 

i think it looks fine as far as positioning, i think it needs to extend longer past the rear of the door maybe?

btw, it could be worse, could be just all yellow with cragars and sidepipes like someone i know

 

I love it. The stripe looks awesome but I knew something looked off I just couldn't pin point it. Personally, if I was going to put the 383 on there I would have done black to match the stripe. It's hard to see against the yellow and since it's sort of part of the stripe, I feel like it needs to be the same color. But regardless, that stripe looks awesome.
