Individual. Not a factory option I'm aware of.

Looks like a mix of GM and Mustang Boss stripe.

Combination. If the strip ran across the nose and didn't form 2 stripes that ran down the car, it would be like the stripe on some '68/'69 era Camaros

Re: anybody recognize these stripes?

The only other time I recall seeing wide stripes that hang over the side were on early 70's Mopars.

The car was posted here before and on LS1tech around 2012. He appears to still be active so you could try sending the builder a PM.

To the OP: That's Vic Schmitt's twin turbo camaro. Vic is building the motor in my car. It's a sweet ride for sure. I'm sure it's a custom job with inspiration. I'll let him know to come into this thread.

Around 2007 i started this build. I remember watching an episode of overhauling. Foose did a 67 camaro where he painted the stripes with this design. The fender portions were narrower on his design. I found that they looked more proportional if they were wider. So thats what i went with.

It was my first stripping attempt and one of my first paint jobs ever. 14hrs i. The paint booth!
