look what i did well i justgot the ones for a 4th gen just to test the water since im going to paint the car ill paint them one if i like them tell me what you all think

 

SWEET!!! and where did you get the stripe at? i want one!

 

from hawksthirdgenparts they are for the 4th gen they are about 75bucks

 

IMO id run the stripe to the tail lights when you paint.......thats what i want to do if i do the hockey stick on mine

 

search for fenton06 we eyeballed his on a sprayed them on

 

i dont know if i would go all the way back but i do think i would go a little thinner in the tail end of it. it is taking me a little to get used to but i think over all i think it looks pretty good thanks for the comments

 

yea thats what i was thinking to tapper it down to real thin at the back

 

Hey....I like em! Tapering them back more may even sharpen them up a bit. Please post more pics if you change them.

 

double post..

 

Looks pretty good, heres another example.. https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/memb...w-trilogy.html

 

OK I KNOW THIS PHOTO SHOP JOB IS CRUDDY BUT IT TOOK 1 MINUTE, GIVES YOU AN IDEA OF HOW IT WOULD LOOK

 

that does look good hmmm thanks for the ideas this is exactly what i wanted some great ideas

 

I like the idea of Hockey Stripes, but not the way that curve doesn't match the angle of the nose. Just kinda makes it obvious it wasn't made for THAT car.

Do it with an angled front not the curve, or at least the stick going more forward not STRAIGHT down, and I think I'd like it better.

 

I agree with stephen, i like the look, and by what you said they served the purpose of seeing how they looked. If you match them to the flow of the front better and taper them back further i think they would look awesome. Those look good but us guys on TGO like to butcher cars and nitpick. There is a guy on here with a yellow Z with black hockey stripes, not sure whose car but his car looks damn good. i think his are painted on also.

on a side note, i love the color of your car, is that stock medium blue metallic or whatever its called?

 

I like the idea that a couple people had with running the stripe with the body line up to the front. That would match the "rake" of the third gen... Try that and post a pic

 

I like how they look, but only with the right colors, wheels, and stance. The only other car i've seen it from THIRD GEN 92. And I agree with the last couple posts. The stripe needs to go more with the shape of the frontend.

 

Never seen Sinister Zs car?

His car is in the thread above and he posted his car show pics (and with the girls ) not too long ago!
Pics Pt 1
Pics Pt 2
Pics Pt 3

 

Yes, actually I was thinking of Sinister's also but when I went and searched for the black car I posted, it made me forget to mention Sinister's also. Someone did in a previous post anyway.

 

yes i think you right about the whole color and rims as well i.when i paint them on i will angle the front more like i said for a trial of 70 bucks was way better then a few hundred thats guy. what do you think of my combo does it go with it

btw i think when i paint the hood this weekend that would help too

 

find the set that start in the headlight area, cross the hood, and then come back.

This vid, yellow thirdgen at 0:16

 

Pretty clear view of it at 0:39......If the headlight buckets weren't black & the stripe continued all the way across, that would look good, IMO. But the way it starts at the buckets, goes up, back, down, then back again....

Sorry, but half the cars in that video look tacky. Like the 4th gen with the white back window, stripes on the window & the Bowtie on it..... uke:

 

Here is a horrible attempt at moving the stipe forward and having it angle more to the lines of the car. Probably could have done a better job, or even angle it even better than that but I don't have the time. Also, at the bottom by the chin...just have it regular size instead of start off so thick. Also, don't worry about the door and part of the fender...that you already know what it's going to look like. Didn't feel like trying to fix it.

 

I think it looks really good too... but I agree with bringing it back farther.

 

hey i do like that photoshop im painting my hood this weekend i think that would help out alot too i think i would ancle the front more instead and in the middle between the side marker and the front of the clip but thanksguys and the yellow one with the front and across i think thats too much but hey what makes you happy. i wanted something different just cause everyone has strips down the middle dont get me wrong i love them but hey just tring to stand out with all these other perfect and beautiful TGs out there. thanks you guys for your comments good or bad thats why i love this board so much you guys tell the truth

 

just make sure you keep us updated and post LOTS of pics :]

 

Here's some 1st gen style stripes for you to think about....

Hockey stick style, but applied differently.....


All the way across, then back......


Yenko style...

 

FYI...Nikko (sinister) had his stripes custom made. They exend down the car further than most stripes do.

 

oh yea his are painted on arent they. thats what i want is to paint his i think his stripes are perfect i may change it a little different than his so i dont steal them from him

 

hey just painted the hood today im gonna let it set and dry then ill post some pics tomorrow i think it will help out the stripes a little will see

 

ok painted the hood yesterday i think it helps

 

now those are good stripes. i dont like the hockey ones but you have to agree that they are well installed, and the car is very good looking.

 

well thank you it took me about an hour and i have never messed with vinyl before.

 

see LVCFD on your car, take it your on the fire dept there??
im a local fire fighter to

anyway

just seeing that Yenko makes me wonder if anyone has ever done a yenko 3rd gen, thats always a cool looking stripe package

 

sorry the sticker is LVCFO las vegas camaro firebird owners a local club here im in the air force but much respect to you all as well i have family in the FD. and the yenko i havent seen at all i wonder if someone has ps it before though

 

:yes:

 

that car looks great man, i wanted to do hockey stripes eventually.

nice work

 

thanks

 

Here is one that was done that I saw at a show earlier this year.

 

if that was a finalized design i believe it would look great.

 

Agreed, working on one of those for my car right now. Just not sure what text to put in the back. Not worthy of it saying Yenko yet!

 

I don't like how that looks. I think it would have looked better if the stripes were black.
Did you take a picture of that silver car with blue wheels?

 

Yep I got a couple of pics of that firebird!

 

If you can, post up the other 3rdgens you've spotted at your shows in one of your cars and babes threads. I'd like to see that bird and how they pulled off those blue wheels(I don't see how from the pic).

 

Not bad looking. Love the color. I had a 92 RS teal while in college, except it was a v6. That car is sharp!

 

i like the stripe idea, however i would put something on the hood also. but keep it classy. like sinister complimented his with his cowl accent.

 

I think that looks great, however I agree that it needs something on the hood aswell.

 

i do agree it looks naked thats what i told the wife i just painted it last week so i need to buff it out and then ill start looking for something on the hood just dont know what yet but if you guys have any ideas that would be great

and SINISTERs no thats a great looking car man

 

Man I knew I has seen this car before....I took pics of your car here in Vegas. I am here TDY and saw it on base parked last week. I tried to find out whom owned it but no one knew. I like the stripes looks good. Wish I wasn't leavint tomarrow to head back to Ga.

 

how long did you stay out here and what squadron you with and your car looks mean as hell too man

 

I was there from the the 6th-17 just got home this morning. I am with the 116th. I wishe we could have got together while I was there. Maybe next time. We alway go there for the weapons school
