Anyone have pictures of stripes on the hood of a C4? Or graphics in the raised area near the cowl?

It can be your car or just something you like. I'm considering doing this to the Spectator Team cars for another piece of flair.

Here's a pic of my 93. I did the strips myself. in the middle there is a grey 1" stripe with a white 1" stripe on either side. Then a 2" gap and a 6" stripe on both sides. The stripes go up the hood, over the roof and onto the rear deck. I also painted the hood and fuel door logos white.

I'm hoping to fix up the very front nose to tie it together this year. I've taken my car off the street and made it a dedicated track dog so I have a black license plate filler now.

"Joanna: You know what, Stan, if you want me to wear 37 pieces of flair, like your pretty boy over there, Brian, why don't you just make the minimum 37 pieces of flair?
Stan: Well, I thought I remembered you saying that you wanted to express yourself.
Joanna: Yeah. You know what, yeah, I do. I do want to express myself, okay. And I don't need 37 pieces of flair to do it. "

Anyone, anyone?

Btw, to remain on topic, I like regular gs stripes, and I think astock's look

To stay on topic -- I have thought about doing red stripes on my white/red coupe. Something reminiscent of the old stinger hood stripe outlined and accented by two thin red or black pinstripes bordering it.

Post 'em up when you get a chance, but we have an L98 in the group...

And I guess mine's technically an LT1, but it's been converted to a 383.

I like the stripes, Mojo. Tasteful and subtle. But for the race car I'm going to go a little more noticable.

For about an hour's worth of your time and ten bucks, you could paint a set on. If you didn't like them, wash them off with soap and water.

If I can do it, anybody can!!

It comes with directions and they're pretty easy to follow.

Took maybe 20 minutes or so.
